Mashed surely?

Worst potato imho, is there a thread in this? Probably already been done.

I mean OBVIOUSLY you are wrong about mashed potato but I think it’s definitely a form of potato that people tend to treat cheaply.

First you want the right potatoes. Baking ones are okay but red-skinned seem to make better mash. Then you want salt in the water and once drained you need salted butter in there to melt in plus some milk. Not too much but enough. Finally I really like to mix in a load of wholegrain mustard.

Anyway, to the important thing:

Mashed potato or (incorrect) mash potato?

  • Mashed potato
  • Mash potato
  • Either is fine (I’m the worst sort of person)

I mean you almost drowned in something liquid and brown of dubious origin so you’ve come pretty close, yeah?

Is there anything they can’t do?

Apart from serve healthy food, obviously.

Make a cup of tea, if my single experience c. 1999 is anything to go by.

I honestly don’t really recall. I think it was cold and my mates were popping in to get food so I just thought I’d have a tea to keep warm.

I’d have ordered fries but (at least in those days) they couldn’t even do fries right - limp and floppy not stiff and crunchy like Maccy D’s.

#32

Tell you some fries I can’t stand. Burger King.

#33

I don’t really rate them but BK (or Hungry Jack’s as they are known here in Aus) seem to have a monopoly on SE Asian airports so have had to eat far too many during layovers.

Hungry Jack’s?!?!?!

Burger King was already trademarked in at least one state by the time they arrived in Australia. Exactly why they decided ‘Hungry Jack’s’ should be the go-to name I don’t know but it’s there and it’s stuck.

#36

Kinda incredible that they have the monopoly on the BK trademark and couldn’t push it through in aus. Imagine somewhere having a coca-cola so britvic had to call it kooky kate’s coke

#37

Yeah, not sure but it’s citation city here:

Does say it was someone trying to open a franchise so I guess maybe without the sure knowledge they’d actually make a tonne from it BK were just unwilling to go to court to try to sort it out?

EDIT: looks like there were some Burger Kings around but they decided HJ was the more popular name
