Everyone loves to eat at the occasional fast food restaurant (well, except health nuts), even though it’s well known at this point that the “behind the scenes” process of making some of these foods is less appetizing than watching a dog pee on your shoe.
One example of this, which was corroborated by multiple Reddit users who claim to work at the popular sandwich chain Arby’s, is the company’s famous roast beef sandwich. Apparently, the beef gets to the place in a liquid state of disgusting mush. It then gets put in the oven, solidified through heat, and cut into strips by the staff. There’s no doubt that this is not what anyone would want of roast beef.
McDonald's Chicken Nuggets
One of the most popular and iconic menu items at McDonald's is the chicken nuggets, otherwise known as the McNuggets. These delicious pieces of chicken have been a staple of the McDonald's menu, to the point of being more popular than their burgers for quite a few customers.
One annoying thing about the McNuggets is that they are often made hours before you've actually ordered them and left on the heater until you do. Fortunately, these little half chicken half who-knows-what snacks are so freakin tasty that most of us are willing to overlook that fact and keep ordering these delicious things Anyway.
Starbucks Food
We'll never understand why some people choose to buy an overpriced sandwich or another food item here when they can get a similar or even better alternative for a lower price right around the corner. If it's not obvious yet, we're referencing Starbucks' foodie customers. If that's not enough to dissuade you from buying anything this company makes, you might be inclined to know that the food at Starbucks reportedly, isn't even fresh.
Yup, you read that right. Everything edible in Starbucks not only isn't fresh, it actually arrives frozen and gets heated throughout the day. In other words, if you're a Starbucks fan and tend to also eat there, just know that you're literally overpaying for frozen food. Not cool at all.
Dunkin Donuts Coolattas
At least when you're talking about companies like McDonald's, there's a certain pretext or illusion of decency and health-consciousness that derives from the brand's appeal to a larger amount of consumers who actually care a bit about what they put in their body.
When you eat at a place like Dunkin Donuts, all of that pretext goes out the window as you're mostly dealing with a client base that cares more about what happened in the last episode of Meet The Kardashians than the stroke building up in their arteries. That's why it's not a surprise if some of the worst culinary offenses I of the unclean serving machines are done by the staff at Dunkin Donuts.
Starbucks' Secret Menu
Some people have recently gotten the impression that Starbucks keeps a secret menu for a special and a select group of its customers. We just wanted to let you know that after a brief investigation of this rumor, we found it to be less than plausible and most likely false.
What you should probably do if you're looking for a custom drink is to figure out exactly what you're interested in ordering, read their menu of ingredients online and then just ask for exactly what you want. This will save both you and that non-communicative Starbucks cashier a lot of time and frustration.
