Thread: Another Pret a Manger death

Pret a Danger , I never buy branded fast food usually overpriced bland rubbish, I think I visited a Hungry Jacks in NSW about 12 years ago and got burger and coffee .There is apace called KFC here now I've never tried it the smell of the grease is enough and food sold in BUCKETS, earls before swine?

This year a friend gave me a falafel kebabwith slad in Copenhagen which was delicious .Sometimes eat street food from local vendors have used for years.

I noticed how Americans graze all day and endless sugary sodas, I grew up with packed lunches an apple piece of cheese and a thermos of tea like most people in my town, progress moves on , not sure its an improvement.In Florida I used to bring lunch to college but noticed even poor students hooked on junk sold next to campus.

I imagine Thais are getting hooked on same rubbish, attracted to the aircon malls where I see ads for same AMERICAN franchised junk, never seen fast food from places with good food , Italy, Spain,Greece etc always Fred Burgers Chickens with sticky sodas and chips, a whole society paying to ruin its health. Luckily here tasty healthy food is everywhere and usually cheaper . Only reason I go to Fuli, MK is wife likes the Aircon and the food there is bland.

As klongtoey remarks why anyone with health issues would trust strangers is naive

Just remembered when we were on a Thai flight not so long ago i heard a passenger mention she had a fish allergy. One of the meals being served was fish the other krapow moo. The flight attendent said its okay krapow moo was pork and didn't have fish in it. I went over to the passenger to warn here it probably had oyster sauce and fish sauce in it. She decide to eat anything just in case there were any other surprise ingredients in the food.

I had a vegetarian friend who asked about the vegetable fried rice at one place and was told it had no meat in it.

So when she started pulling bits of shrimp out of it, what could I say?
