Myth of sucks

This world is full of wonder and myths. Take McDonald for example, there are three things that is so amazing that I call them magic. No surprise that their famous fries is first on the list, or should I say notorious...... Before I go deep into that, let's see how regular fries are being made. All we need is potato, water and cooking oil for frying it. Here we go, chop the potato and let it soak in the water for a minute, then fry it in oil until it turns golden, wala here you got In'n Out fries, simply tasty. For McD's they got their fries in store frozen and pre-cut, they just fry it and serve. Oil doesn't do much because you got about same taste with home oil and the frozen ones taste regular. Since they are cut not formed potato strips, it have the mighty power to preserve the freshness of the fries for years (fries took about 6 months from empty farm field to become potato and to get to your mouth) even after its being fried(a special scenes from movie "Super size me"), odorless/tasteless, bio degradable(unlike corn you wont be able to find any bit of it in your poo even if you swallow it without a bite) and so tasty, magic but I'm loving it.

Our No. 2 on the list are their eggs. Their thick but tender still thoroughly cooked egg in muffin and the ever wonder what have they add scramble egg. What make them special is that the only difference between them is when they break the yoke. The fact is that nothing is added to the scramble egg other then breaking it in the mixing bowl, and no matter what, you just wont be able to scramble your egg to be like them at home, another magic but I prefer the muffin egg better.

Last item is of surprise, their beef. If you ask anyone about their beef for sure no one will be giving any positive comments. Despite their negative public image, the beef they use is surprisingly good in quality. All they do in store is put the patty on their stove, give it a shift of salt and pepper, then place another heat source on top of it to cook it thoroughly. The reality is that if their hamburger isn't so under priced they could make it better for they are unwilling to eliminate other local food businesses. Hard to believe? I learn this by reheating the beef of a burger that had been in freezer for a few days on the stove. The result is unbelievable.

In real world, the lamp disguise in a wolf skin, the wolf disguise in a human skin, and the wolf hunter? I have no idea, you can ask that Sheppard with night vision goggle.
