Like the burgers at In-N-Out, fries are OK. Obscure references to Bible verses don't bother me at all. Hot dogs from Hebrew National are good too.

Hebrew National hot dogs are the Israeli Army MRE's.

Oh, that's just the tip of the iceberg. And completely innocent of racial connotations.

Here's a Christmas menu for KFC in Tokyo (Japan's most popular Christmas meal is take-out KFC):

Quiz: what's missing from the menu?

In and out isn't attacking any group of people. Soon we won't be able to express our views on anything. That's a scarier thought than a few scribbles on a hamburger wrapper

Actually, I preferred Tommy's #5 when I lived in California. They had all the fat and twice the grease.

The entire thread is sarcastic.

Kissing is perverse and obscene? I'm sorry you feel that way... must be sad to view displays of love as disgusting.

P.S. So much for your claim of supporting equal treatment for gays, LOL.

Yep, they probably would!! Funny how they're suddenly acting like boycotts are a liberal thing, when (as somebody pointed out earlier in the thread) conservatives practically invented the concept. How soon we forget the "million moms," huh? And that's just a recent example!
