What if the Hokey Pokey IS what it's all About???

Fast Food Confession

I have a confession to make: since arriving in Europe, I am guilty at having eaten at the following 3 places:

Kentucky Fried Chicken (chicken filet burger - had to go bc group was going and no other food in sight)
Burger King (they were out of shakes so i had to get a plain burger; all other food too expensive)
McDonalds (chocolate sundae...soooo good)

I had to travel miles from home to finally understand the appeal of fast food, and it's so simple: it's cheap and fast. I hate that I ate at these places while I'm all the way over here, and in my previous travels had only ventured so far as Subway, and then only in a dire moment of need (or, as in Angela's case, a homesick birthday in Barcelona!), yet it makes sense: I don't really know where I am most of the time, and when I do I don't know where the nearest grocery store is, and often I don't want to sit down because I'm on my way somewhere.

Anyway, I still feel guilty, so I thought I'd get this off my chest! Just another little detail about my life in Europe... | posted by Cheryl, 11/12/2005 07:43:00 AM
