Which fast food is better never to eat

The answer is seemingly simple: anyone! But it is also clear that for various reasons, we will still have a bite to eat in a fast food cafe from time to time. And it will be useful to find out what you can eat there, and what is better to avoid by any means. This was told by people who for some time worked in fast food chains themselves. Of course, food network management also plays an important role. Some cafes keep their brand and do not allow themselves to cook badly for their customers, but many sacrifice quality for the sake of greater profit and ease of their work.

So, here is a list of the most dangerous foods that you can find in fast food establishments:

1. Ice and ice cream

It is very difficult and costly to keep the equipment for preparing these dishes clean. Traces of mold can often be found there. Ice is made from dirty water.

2. Chicken McNuggets from McDonald's

“I have not worked at McDonald's for a long time, but I remember one picture. I accidentally left a bag with a hundred frozen nuggets on the table. And they just melted! Those. at all. They turned into some kind of slurry, faintly reminiscent of appetizing chicken pieces."

“Nuggets are chicken processed a thousand times over, and you can't even call it meat. Mixed with water and additives. Yes, it's like furniture from IKEA. Leave it in water and it will turn into woody gruel. Because the material it is made of is as far from real wood as nuggets are from real chicken."

“I heard what it was before 2003. And now all the nuggets are from normal, one hundred percent chicken white meat. And they won't melt like before."

3. Fried chicken, fish, meat

Of course, readers can reasonably argue that if you do not eat all this, then nothing will remain. Just be careful, and if the hamburger you bought is suspicious, refuse it.

“I worked for Burger King and I want to tell you something about the butter cycle. Pour the oil into a vat, french fries are cooked in this oil for two days. Tons of potatoes. Then it becomes too dark for her and is poured into the chicken cooking vat. She prepares in it for about a week. The oil becomes completely dark. And then it is poured into a vat for cooking fish."

“At McDuck, hamburger meat looks disgusting. Only the sauces make it tasty."

“I probably won't surprise anyone if I tell you how Chile is prepared at Wendy. It uses meat that has been fried too hard and cannot be used in hamburgers. They put it in the refrigerator, and when it comes time to cook chili, they take it out. It seems not dangerous, but somehow not very appetizing …"

4. Food at Subway

Those who worked at Subway, having entered this institution, can immediately understand what can be ordered today and what not. Be careful you too. If it seems to you that the product is of a strange color, that it looks stale, if it seems to you that the sandwich maker is sloppy or that the establishment is too garbage, it is better to leave right away.

“When I worked as a sandwich maker at Subway, the only product I had a lasting disgust was the seafood salad that was put into the sandwich. It is made from crab sticks, which are known to be just imitation crab, and is generously seasoned with mayonnaise. It's killer when customers ask for extra mayonnaise too!"

“Chicken breasts are taken out of the refrigerator at the beginning of the day and placed in water, where they remain all day. And the leftovers in the evening need to be squeezed out and put back in the refrigerator. The procedure is repeated the next day. After a few days, the chicken breast will soften and smell disgusting. So don't order sandwiches with it, choose a different kind of chicken."

Say no to tuna, seafood salad and other mixes like teriyaki chicken! All this is mixed with hands without gloves. There is mayonnaise in the mixtures, and salads with it cannot stand all day, they spoil. In addition, the new mixture is added to the remnants of the old one."

"Stay away from cutlets, soups and meatballs."

“Ask the sandwich maker to change gloves before he prepares your sandwich. Most likely, you will receive rays of hatred from him, but you will save yourself from a good portion of germs."

"I got fired from Subway for putting too many olives in my sandwiches …"

5. Sauces / condiments

If they bring you sauce in a bottle, think about whether you washed this bottle before pouring a new portion of sauce into it? And also embarrassing breadsticks, which are usually served as a compliment in Italian restaurants. Perhaps you got a stick that a previous visitor did not want to eat.

Bonus tip: don't go to a cafe before closing

It is unlikely that 20 minutes before closing, for example, of a pizzeria, a fresh dish will be prepared for you. So you can only claim leftovers that have been standing all day waiting for their buyer. And it is absolutely certain that their taste and usefulness were seriously affected by this.

“I worked at Whataburger in a small town and I want to say that everyone there was just obsessed with cleanliness. We washed, cleaned and tidied up all day.”

“I worked at Little Caesar Pizzeria. Every day we prepared fresh dough 12 hours before making pizza (according to technology). All sauces and other expired products were thrown away. We didn't wash the pizza trays, we just threw them away and got new ones. The rest of the dishes were carefully processed."

"When I worked at Subway, we were very concerned about cleanliness and washed our hands literally every 5 minutes."
