The big question...answered
Okay, comedians throughout the nation seem to have a field day about the so called poor guy who goes to McDonald's and orders a Big Mac, fries, and a "Diet Coke," inplying that somehow this choice of drink defies logic. I always thought it was kind of funny until I was at the Corning McDonald's recently (I blame my fast food visit on the fries, there is something about McDonald's fries that are just outstanding) and a gentleman in front of me ordered a Big Mac, fries, Diet Coke, and an apple pie. Being the kind of inquisitive guy I am, I asked him why the Diet Coke? He answered directly and with one swift statement "I like Diet Coke." So I guess the eternal question has been answered. You don't have to be on a diet to buy a Diet Coke. By the way...do you agree with me about McDonald's fries being the best, or are there better fries out there? Hal's Eat 'Em-Up Tator Tots do not count. These have their own special category to me. They too are outstanding...
