Fast food when I was a kid all seemed better than it does now. Part
may be my palate has matured but it's all gone downhill too. Arby's
used to be a treat we'd love to enjoy. Even mCshittes was edible.
Around 1980 I went to Taco Bell all the time. Now I find it revolting
mush. The secret herb and spice mix may produce good chicken but not
at KFC.
