Fast Food Weakness

[Belen]

Only if you eat them RAW.

That's against the rules.

with a side of warm pumpkin pie extra cinnamon and vanilla ice cream....

You ruined it! Ice cream on pumpkin pie?! Scandalous!

So does sushi from a conveyor belt qualify as fast food?

Well, do you mean actual pumpkin pie, or do you mean "pumpkin pie?"

Me, I like actual pumpkin pie by itself, most often, but I won't argue with a dollop of whipped cream or french vanilla or natural vanilla bean ice cream. Come to think of it, I don't mind "pumpkin pie" the same way.

Speaking of Rel, if he wants to participate in the Worldwide D&D Gameday at AFNG, then he needs to sign up. I am working on the next DMs dinner, which will probably be early December.

I meant to shoot you an e-mail about this. Unfortunately it turns out that that's the weekend that we're visiting my wife's family in Memphis. Can't make it this year.

But do let me know about the DM Dinner.

I will never be able to think of pumpkin pie in the same way now.

Possibly, although it's still "order at a counter, no waiters, and assembly line building of your product of mass-produced food components." Subway not being "cooked" as part of the assembly seems to be the biggest difference. Although the customer being the supervisor and telling the worker exactly how to assemble the sandwich is pretty significant too.

But I agree that what can or cannot pass muster under daily usage of the term "fast food" is undergoing a bit of evolution, partly because of new chains that are deliberately trying to expand what types of things can be offered. Subway was one of the first of those, but Quizno's and others are expaning it as well.

Yep -- aren't they doing stuff with the starchy/cream soups? That seem like another obvious avenue of expension.

Great, now I've got images of The_Universe inserting all kinds of things into his orifices. You just aren't giving the mind's eye any breaks lately, are you?

Oh. My. God. Please, make it stop. Someone, make it stop!
