  • silverchrysalis, on 06/30/2009, -5/+211my uncle always said: "you can't polish a turd." however, i guess if you plate it nicely with drizzles of whatnot, you can...?

  • Vodd9, on 07/01/2009, -1/+67Like ass? Fast food is delicious.
    It just happens to make you fat and unealthy, so people tend to wrongfully associate negative aspects with it.

  • DiscoUnderpants, on 07/01/2009, -2/+23If you like that, youll all love my Steamed Clams.
  • moliver21, on 07/01/2009, -5/+22I am so glad I quit eating all that junk food. I have lost weight, and feel so much better day to day. You'd be surprised what simply not eating out will do to benefit your body, and your physical, as well as mental health.
  • stubear, on 07/01/2009, -1/+18The mythbusters actually proved that you can in fact polish a turd:

  • broncfan23, on 07/01/2009, -6/+17Snails are so good. Cooked with garlic..mmmmmm
  • Kersheh, on 07/01/2009, -0/+11I was just about to post this.

    Looking at all the foods, most of them look like 'fine dining'... except the McDonald's food, which looks more repulsive than usual.
  • chadsmith729, on 07/01/2009, -1/+12This one does though: http://thisiswhyyourefat.com/

  • borez, on 07/01/2009, -1/+10You can actually polish a turd, you just need to varnish it first.
  • MacEnvy, on 07/01/2009, -0/+9To be fair, that's more cooking skills than most White Castle customers have.
  • inactive, on 07/01/2009, -2/+11Instead oif wasting your time dressing this crap up, why not cook some actual food.
  • EggAndMuffin, on 07/01/2009, -0/+9In music industry, many turds are polished and become very popular.
  • solid12345, on 07/01/2009, -18/+27Still better than caviar and snails
  • windowbreaker, on 07/02/2009, -0/+8Haaaaey is right. I eat people all the time and I'm very overweight.
  • darkstar949, on 07/01/2009, -1/+9Actually, the did polish them on Mythbusters a couple seasons back using dorodango techniques - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorodango
  • algaeturd, on 07/01/2009, -0/+8When you're at a fancy restaurant and you're watching some random hot woman eating something all exotic, do you look at her and think, 'she's going to be pooping all that out in about 10-14 hours.'? And then you think about how everyone poops so it doesn't seem all that bad?
    I do.
  • Elranzer, on 07/01/2009, -0/+8The Popeye's Chicken sushi looks interesting, I may actually try it. But I'd probably rather use real Kikkoman soy sauce than "Coca-Cola syrup" for the glaze...
  • phildixon, on 07/01/2009, -1/+9I had a friend who worked for one of the biggest food suppliers for McDonald's. It was a pretty cool company. They had a free cafeteria that used all the same food products that they supplied to McDonald's but were planned and prepared by trained chefs and cooks. He said the food was amazing. Presentation means a lot more than we think.
  • zacbro, on 07/01/2009, -2/+10Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice........Fool me twice........Well you're not gonna fool me again!
  • codyman, on 07/01/2009, -3/+11I've pretty much cut down my list of fastfood places that I'll eat at to In-N-Out Burger (tasty), Subway (cheap / filling), and Del Taco (great if you're drunk)
  • hbball, on 07/01/2009, -0/+7McDonald's only recognizable one from photo... Taco Bell one is funniest, and least likely to taste like it appears in the photo.
