All of the aforementioned "gourmet" delights have enough (bad)cholesterol, sodium, sugar and trans- fats to kill an elephant. A steady diet of theses FAST food will lead to a SLOW death. They'll do y'all in from from heart disease, stroke or morbid obesity.

HOWEVER, seems that Mc Ds is a client of mine through one of the ad agencies I shoot for. So in the interest of political correctness and cash flow, I have to opt for their ANGUS BURGER- YUMMY!- it actually resembles MEAT!

There is an urban legend that circulates up here in Canada- about KFC. Seems a certain kinda undesirable rodent managed get breaded and subsequently fell in o the pressure fryer at one on the Colonel's fine outlets.Then is was served up to a customer! My kids and grandkids always say "let's go out for some KFR- "Kentucky Fried Rat"! Ever since then I fry my own chickens thank you very much!

Well- there's always TOFU burgers- when I was a kid and got bored in class, I used to chew on my pencil erasers and as a result I developed a taste for all of theses fux-burgers- UGH!

Pictures to follow! BURP!

The more times somebody types "KFC" on-line, the better the company likes it.
And the longer this thread gets, the more likely it will show up in somebody's
Google search results.

Yum! Brands (the China-based parent company of KFC) thanks you all
for helping to market it's restaurant chain!

The difference between this and all those "mirrorless question" threads is that
nobody paid me to create this topic. I don't take my orders from Col. Sanders.

But just look how easy it is to get people talking about its product
simply by having someone post on-line. There are Internet marketing
firms that specialized in forum marketing---anyone who wants to can
get a job working a home, posting to forums like this one: variations
on the same post, over and over again.

No shill will ever ask "Which camera should I buy?" Instead, they
always ask "Which <brand name> camera should I buy?" Or
"Should I buy Model X or Model Y?" where both are the same brand.

These questions are along the same line as "Have you stopped beating
your wife?" -- they assume facts not in evidence. The goal is to channel
the disucssion to specific products, rather than requirements or an open-
ended discussion. And they never mention price.

Nothing worng with a company promoting its products. But they shouldn't
use deception or impersonation to do it. It's not nice to manipulate people
who are here because they are interested in photography--not because they
are being paid by the post or by the click.

Imagine how much better it would be if one of the big camera manufactuers
had a employee openly posting here as a spokesman -- instead of hiring sleazy
Internet marketing firms or paying dealers to post incognito. Imagine the good
relations and good feeling that a real dialog could create.

Back in the 1980s, I belong to Roy Orbison's fan club, which had a BBS. Roy
and his wife used to post to it. Man, were they good people! After he suddenly
died (at only age 52), his wife kept it going for a while. At least he went out on
top: playing and singing in the Traveling Wilburys with George Harrison,
Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, and Jeff Lynne. Not a bad line-up.

Whether its the music business or the camera business, ultimately it's about people.
It's a shame that so many big corporations have to find that out the hard way.
