I went to McDonalds and it reminded me how fastfood has changed since I was a kid. Here's a short list that shows I'm old and my inner child is in hiding.

1. Not as appealing as a special trip or treat so not excited about going to McDonalds as before.
2. When ordering, have to think about what's healthier to eat.
3. Occasionaly considered ordering a salad.
4. Not up to date on the latest toys that come in a Happy Meal or a Kids Meal or whatever special cardboard box kids meal deal they have for kids.
5. I compare Dollar Menus from Wendys and Burger King then decide what I want instead of getting/asking/begging/pleading about what I want when I was a kid.
6. I'd take a cup of joe over a cup of OJ as my breakfast drink.

I totally do that too. And my friends laugh their asses off at me for doing it. They say, "What is the use of diet coke, if you're gonna be downing a dirt-greasy burger anyway?"

Ok, rant over. ;)

Oh my gosh, I love mcribs!

My SIL used to be the QA gal for the processing plant that formed the mcribs. She would get us boxes of them to keep in the freezer. They were so good grilled.
