Been to Wendy's twice in my life. Been sick both times, never been back.

I think if it was doing that to everyone they would have been out of business a long time ago. I wonder why that happened.

James thinks because I bought 50 pounds of potatoes I should make 4 different types of potato dishes for Thanksgiving.

Happy last Farm Market Saturday of the Year

I was torn on a like or a sad face. Like = farm market Sad face = last one of the season

That reminds me. I bought a tomato this week, and a small package of mozzarella. Planned to make (something like) a Caprese salad.

My tomato is still in the vegetable bin in the frig. I ate the cheese already.

Time to get more cheese! Talking as a Wisconsinite, my fridge is never empty of cheese.

@dryerlintfan seeing you were asking about out holiday dinners we've decided on rolled pork loin with prosciutto, ham and mozzarella as the main meat for Christmas dinner

Those were my exact thoughts pulling out of the driveway this morning. I'm home so now I got some excellent deals seeing it's the last day

We have one year round. It can get a little chilly at times during the winter, but it is in a covered long building. No sides so if the wind is up it can be downright uncomfortable. I'm also not sure just how "fresh" everything is that time of year.

Only 4 . That's very restrained of him.

4 different dishes not 4 potatoes

Still restrained for him.

The one time I tried a McRib up here, it was awful. That was quite a few years ago, though. Maybe they've improved since then? Rarely go to McDonalds (Burger King is closer in my area), but I think the McRib remains to be an intermittent item on menu. (However, that might also be due to some of the fast food places reducing items on the menu, ever since the customer slowdowns, from 2020.)

The McRib was introduced in ‘81.
I’ve been eating them since and have NEVER had close to an awful one.
Again, a smoked brisket sandwich from Southside Market & Barbeque is King (no sauce…that would just ruin it), but, the McRib is definitely a guilty pleasure for me…!!!!!

McRib is good sandwich. In Germany it is a permanent menu item at all McDonalds.

Wendy;s went bankrupt here as well as Arby's lol.
Both had horrible service in my country x_x

Also, Mexicans prefer.. gasp.. mexican tortas.. so the Arby's overpriced sandwiches were a no to go for almost everyone.

Had a McD's burger the other day first in years it will be a long time before I have another. We have a barbecue place here that makes a great sandwich and steak fries-- family owned and run since the 40's that's my go to for fast food.

Speaking of McD's.. Their burgers are getting smaller and smaller.
They look ridiculously tiny.. even the McNifica and the double.
The Carl's basic burgers dwarf then by almost 30%.
And the bigger one by almost 40%.

I think Wendy's still has some locations in Mexico including across the border of El Paso in Juarez.
