THIS is America

There is something about waking up early, the airport and a rainy Wednesday that makes YJDKIY think it is ok to make a fast food run. It's certainly not good for you, but MMMMM it was good!
We're going to ignore the nutritional content this morning, to focus on some interesting nutritional values at work here.

I pull up to the drive through window: "I'd like a bacon, egg and cheese biscuit, please."

Drive through person: "We have 2 for $2"

YJDKIY: "No thank you, I just want one."

Drive through person: "But that will be $2.19 plus tax."

YJDKIY: "No thank you, I just want one."

Drive through person: "Are you sure?"

YJDKIY: "Yes, I just want one."

Drive through person (sounding confused and annoyed): "Well, ok...."

So for $.30 LESS, I could have gotten double the fat, calories, sodium. Gee what a deal. This is exactly what is wrong with America! Way to use the economy to cost this country more health care dollars McDonalds.
