Beyond burgers and beyond fried chicken.

The post explained itself.

Then perhaps I'm just unintelligent and need you to elaborate regardless.

As you say.... Do I really need to explain that?"

However what is fast food?

A word. And not a guarantee. Like Arby's. We made a lot of things to order, needed time to slice the roast beef, and it wasn't necessarily fast, especially when busy. We understood this. Customers often didn't, even when it was slow and we hadn't made anything like chicken or fish yet so they didn't get wasted.

Fast food doesn't mean magically instantaneous. Sometimes the service just sucks, sure, but sometimes there are legitimate reasons for a delay, especially if business is slow. They typically prepare orders fresh to avoid waste until the customer flow picks up. Unless it's a habitual occurrence, Being a "Karen" isn't helpful.

I was a teen once working fast food many years ago.
When you go through the drive-thru and say order a quarter pounder at McD's or a Whopper at burger king, they don't pull it from the fridge, cook it and have it ready in the two minutes it takes to go from the drive-thru order box to the pickup window.

Most of it is pre-cooked, setting under a warmer ready to be put together how its ordered. That's why its fast food.

Now go to pizza hit and order a pizza, its prepared when you order and cooked then ready in 15 minutes.

Yeah, no ****. That's what I was explaining to you. If business is slow they're not going to have pre-prepped food because it would be wasteful.

McD's and BK for example start cooking lunch food to put under the warmers at 10:00. Thats why they stop/limit breakfast items at that time lol

And what happened to the food items that sat beneath the warmer for an X amount of time without getting purchased? They got tossed, which costed the company.

You do you. You're the expert....on most everything lol

Again, no ****. The transitional period is right before lunch and is not typically slow, so pre-prepped food is very unlikely to go to waste.

You just proved my point. Good night

instead of taking It out of context, read the whole thing. " The transitional period is right before lunch and is not typically slow, so pre-prepped food is very unlikely to go to waste.

When business is slow and the pre-prepped food isn't getting purchased, it gets tossed after setting under the warmer for so long, thus does go to waste.

How the **** are you struggling with this?

So? Stuff still happens. It's called fast food, but people aren't magic and it can't always be ready right away. They aren't paid enough to break their backs to meet your instantaneous expectations, especially when the assumptions fly when you don't know what's up.

Iew. Yes, it does go bad. See, they have these things called "holding times," and after that food isn't as good and it's illegal to serve food paste its holding time. It must be wasted. If they aren't busy it's wasteful to just have food holding. And wasting food will quickly jack up the costs of business.

 

[Twilight Hue]

No, it's not. It's really not.
But keep up with wanting to blame them. Keep driving people out of those jobs and hopefully the entire industry will die the death it deserves.

It tastes like garbage now. No great loss.

Please let us consider cow farts as being very wasteful, if more people would eat the Impossible Whopper in lieu of a Beef Whopper, there'd be less ranch farming of cows releasing global warming methane gas.

 

[oldbadger]

Besides several burger chains making beyond burgers made from plants,,, KFC has now came out with beyond fried chicken made from plants.

My question is why does anyone want their plant food to look like burgers or fried chicken?

I just don't get it.

What we can see affects our opinions, feelings, and especially our systems like blood pressure and flow, our indigestion systems, levels of salivation.....and a lot more.

So if somebody has developed a veggie-version of chicken, duck, high-plains buffalo or whatever, it will actually make a difference to most people if it looks 'appetising'.

If somebody has produced a veggie-whopper then I would definitely try it.

I wish somebody would produce a veggie-salmon, poached (that's simmered in hot water, not nicked) then that would make my day.
