Now, well, I'm glad there's none nearby. Racing Chik-Fil-A on the race to the bottom I see.
Cripes, you can't get leaf lard for love or money around here.
and theyre both perfectly lovely fonts and had to be ruined forever by being used so much by fascist shitwipes

Either it was deliberate or their marketing department needs firing, either way it's super sus
But it’s funny how hard they fail.
"Conservative" is a dog whistle they use to hide their change in ideology. They are not the "good ol' boys" they used to be.
my call for either karma or cholesterol to finally take effect!
McDonalds switched to seed oils in the late 1980s. Back then, anti-wokes were virulently racist against Asians over fears that the Japanese Economic Miracle would never end and they'd colonize America.
Are they fried in beef fat?
That sounds odd 😵💫
That is why they are so different now. Love McDonald's fries before the change.
because "seed oils are poison," or whatever RFK's grift is

I prefer Freddy's Steakburgers anyway.
Airfried waffles - Luftwaffles
A rebrand - Schutz & Staffels
Fast food - Blitzfried
Dessert - Final Solution
Especially Crack House.
I used to choose that sucker all the time.
Now I’m like. Erm. Maybe? We really need more of that?

Since 1940 we have had more chances to evaluate morality, ethics, and the effects on other human beings.
Trump and Musk can be aware of that but choose to ignore humanity.
“Great for a guest stop over”
That was one of my go-to road trip dinner spots though.
Also, it looks like some mixed messaging and not everyone on the Steak and Shake marketing team thinks "Reminders of Nazism" will sell more Vanilla Shakes.

Libs believe in vaccines, so vaccines are part of the culture war.
Some libs are on Medicaid, so Medicaid is part of the culture war.
Some libs are vegans, so food is part of the culture war.
Block your arteries to own the libs.
And not to be outdone, real media is part of the culture war, too, Rebs want to cancel NPR.
The Fairness Doctrine meant well, but we'd need to button up and modernize the fuck out of it to bring it back.
