  3. Keep it on Topic. Memes about ranting are allowed for now, but will be banned if they start to become more prevalent than actual rants.

Hey fast food workers who work the fries, I don't give a fuck if you hate salt, put the correct damn amount of salt on my fries, I don't want to taste the concept of having salt on my fries! No, I want my fries to remove all liquid from my mouth so I can guzzle down my flavoured sugar water!

You're not making me healthier by lowering my salt intake, it's fast food! I took all the veg off my burger and doubled the cheese! Now give me my salty chips god damn you!

Having worked at McDonald’s, Burger King and Wendy’s I can tell you what’s happening.

McDonald’s has a patented salt dispenser that perfectly salts their fries. You just dump the salt and it stops on its own. The problem is a lot of employees think they’re smarter than corporate and give it another few goes.

At the other restaurants, there’s some policy like “put X amount of salt” but it’s just a fucking container of salt and you’re supposed to magically know exactly however many grams to use. Notice I put “X amount of salt” because in those places I had no clue what the number was despite holding management positions.
