I've been a reader of this column for some time and always enjoy it, but I am so compelled to comment on this one that I actually had to sign up.
OK, so while I'm not suggesting that Micky-D's is in any way GOURMET, I do find and have found since I was a child that it can serve very well as somewhat of a "comfort food", especially on a cool rainy day like we are experiencing here today in Charlotte NC. Additionally, since tomorrow is payday and I am thus down to my last few bucks until then, I find McD's dollar menu offers serious bang for the buck.
Hence, my cheap lunch recipe, which I have just consumed: (2) McDoubles & (1) bacon cheesburger; remove the bottom buns from both McDoubles (cheese is on the top bun) and then oh-so-carefully remove both buns from the bacon cheeseburger, preserving as much of the top bun cheese as possible. Stack them all together with the two top buns on the outside (the top bun is always my favorite half, after all) into a -- uh -- quintburger? (McD's patties are really small enough that this roughly equates to a Wendy's triple, but that's another post.)
With the addition of a $1 small fry, my entire lunch bill came to $4.30! (McDouble is served on the $1 menu here in the south).
Healthy? Unlikely, but cheap-slide-down-greasy-meaty-cheesy-deliciousness, ABSOLUTELY!
