Rotting Garbage...

There were few things that used to smell as good as fresh McDonald's. I can remember times I drove past one and caught a whiff of french fries. I know that there were times when I was really hungry, went through the drive through and practically drooled while waiting for my food. So how come today, it made me wanna I stopped to pick up a cheeseburger for my 10yo who, of course, was STARVING. It was late and he hadn't eaten, so I relented. I was a little hungry myself and hoped it wouldn't be a problem. By the time we got to the pick-up window, I was grinning like a loon trying to force back the gag reflex. I asked my son what he smelled and he said "MMMmmmm... French fries..." Litterally smelled like rotting garbage to me... Becky 287/260/140ish

Can't say this has happened to me! I walked to hubby's work yesterday and his work is right next to a McD's. While I was walking by I just kept saying to myself, "Keep going - you know it will probably make you sick - you can't eat it." LOL! Still smelled super yummy to me!!

I love McDonalds. When I go with the family I get the 5piece chicken nuggets and eat 2 or 3 and I am full. I dont get fries or anything to drink,just the nuggets and I am set. What a cheap date, I love it.

I had sort of the same experience on my first day home from surgery 3 weeks ago. My family was grilling out hamburgers, My fav way of having them, sliced onions, seasoning, wraped in tin foil and slapped on the grill. I used to love the smell of burgers fresh off the grill that way. When my dad brought in the buggers, it smelt like rotting flesh, wow just ruined any craving i had for them. I cant say i have that problem now, but then again i try to be in other places when they eat.

I do find that since the surgery, my sense of smell and taste has changed. I agree with you that Mcdonald's smells like trash! lol...who would have thought...

I'm the opposite. I'd LOVE to dig into a Quarter Pounder with cheese, loaded, but I know I can't. No way I could stomach that mess, but I can dream. LOL I've been tempted to try a fliet of fish, minus the bun, but haven't had the nerve. Afraid it will make me sick. I'm not much of a fish eater. I bought some that is supposed to taste like cod, not overly fishy, but I haven't tried it. Not sure what to do with it, exactly. There is a restaurant back home, MCL Cafeteria, that makes Baked Cod and I love it! Of course, they won't tell me how they do it. It's "secret" or something.
