As a person that gave up caffeine and now relies primarily on Sprite and Sierra Mist, I really hope Starry is good. I liked Sierra Mist just ever-so-slightly more than Sprite, so I’ll be sad to see it go, but I’ll be mad if Starry sucks.

100% potato cake, everyone else is wrong. Also, they're not that great from Maccas.

EDIT: Potato Fritter as well, I'll take either

Not brilliant. Not bad and I'd probably never get McPotato Cakes again EXCEPT: Macca's has the added bonus of sensible opening hours... So if you can get these at 2 in the morning, The fish and chip shops that opens from 5-8pm Tuesday-Sunday better watch out.

Waiting for McDimSims and McSpringRoll and McChikoRoll and McGrilledFlake... And maybe a McFriedMarsBar which when combined with Macca's vastly superior chips could spell the end for the fish and chip shop that takes 50 minutes to get some overpriced, overcooked fish in your hands.

So the past few days I've been getting through a million kilos of beef mince.
I've found the secret to great tasting burgers.

Between the rolls (or bread when you run out of rolls) you only need a maximum of 3 main ingredients and 3 condiments. That's it.

While I can appreciate a burger as big as a cathedral with more ingredients than an entire supermarket, making more of these simple burgers instead of one huge one is just much tastier.

My favourites are Pattie, bacon, cheese + salt, pepper, tomato sauce. And Pattie, egg, mushroom + butter, salt, smoky BBQ sauce.

Even the classic of Pattie, cheese and lettuce OR tomato is better then lettuce AND tomato.

They're still real sized burgers, not sliders or anything, it's just they're basic so I've been having 3 separate burgers in place of one huge one and it's heaps better.

For breakfast tomorrow I'm gonna have a Pattie, bacon, egg + salt, pepper, tomato sauce burger and a Pattie, lettuce, cheese + BBQ sauce, mayo, butter burger.

Not heaps of surplus mince left anymore so I'll fit the last of the mince in the freezer and start eating other stuff.

I still haven't done 2 patties and cheese or pattie, bacon and fried onion yet but there's always tomorrow!

I was surprised he said he has to look for stuff. At almost 3 million subscribers I thought fast food restaurants would make sure the ones he goes to has it for him because it's good advertising. Plus he rarely outright says something completely sucks. Although he really hates Papa John's.

Look, I like Report of the Week, but my god his videos are too long. It took 7 minutes before we even see the food he’s reviewing.

The pineapple on Pizza debate was invented by burger chains to distract people from the crime against humanity of putting raw onion on burgers.

Got a burger with the lot from the fish and chip shop the other day and they didn't have the decency to fry the onions. Was fucking disgusting so I picked them off and put them with some tomato and lettuce and salad dressing where they fucking belong.

To anyone who has ever sold a burger: cook your fucking onions you disgusting fucking ferals.

I take most fast food burgers with no onions unless they specifically say it has fried onion or offer the option on their other burgers.
I have paid extra in the past at hungry jacks because the 50 cents more is worth it for edible food.
