MacDonalds hashbrowns

Seriously what’s the point in them?

 

Does anyone actually eat them?  I think they are disgusting and throw mine straight in the bin. I don’t really know anyone who actually does like them,  surely it’s time to serve tattie scones

Daughter loves them. But lamb and weston triangles are the way forward. Been told that the Morrisons ones are the exact same for much less price.

I thought this thread was a double entendre relating to...

 

Man performed helicopter moves with his genitals on McDonalds counter.

 

 

Man performed ‘helicopter moves’ with genitals on Edinburgh McDonald’s counter

 

 

Published: 15:27 Wednesday 21 November 2018

 

Early morning customers and staff at a McDonald’s in Edinburgh got some unexpected entertainment when a young man began dancing, half-naked, on counters in the restaurant.

 

At Edinburgh Sheriff Court today, 29-year old Ryan Dolan from Musselburgh pled guilty to committing acts of public indecency in the South St Andrew Street premises on July 22 this year.

Fiscal Depute, Nicole Lavelle, told Sheriff Peter McCormack that Dolan came into the restaurant around 5am. She said he stood about two metres away from the counter, adding: “Out of the blue he took his trousers and pants off, showing his penis and testicles and thereafter was dancing with his trousers down”.

 

He pulled his trousers back again, but then jumped across the front counter into the staff area. Dolan was told to leave, but took his trousers and pants off again. “He grabbed his penis and started to play with it,” said the Fiscal, “pretending to serve customers and started dancing again, carrying out helicopter-like moves with his penis”.

This went on for a few minutes before he jumped back onto the front counter, still half-naked.

 

Dolan then pulled his trousers and pants back up and left.

 

Ms Lavelle described his actions as “boisterous acts, heavily fuelled by alcohol”.

 

The police had been contacted and when shown CCTV footage, one of the officers recognised Dolan and he was later arrested.

 

Sheriff McCormack was told Dolan had very little recollection of the incident. However, he noted Doland had two previous convictions for similar offences. He said he would have fined him £750, but reduced the fine to £500 because of the guilty plea. The fine to be paid at £100 a month.

I like both on a fry up. In fact beans are a must.

Indeed, I'm disappointed to report that House of Bruar now serve hash browns as part of their full 'Scottish' breakfast. 

 

?

Never understood why people give a shit if somethings a "full Scottish" or a "full English" or what not. Put what ever combo of stuff you like onto a plate you like and get stuck in.

If something is advertised as a 'Full Scottish' it comes with certain expectations attached.

 

These do not include hash browns.

No question about that. Fried bread rather than toast as well.

 

Now that is mood-dependent in my book.

Some people reckon chips as part of a Full English.

However, fried tomatoes should be nowhere near a Full Scottish.

 

Fried tomatoes should be considered part of the FS.

 

Not on my ****ing plate though.

Couple of slices of fried bread with beans on top and then a fried egg on top of the beans. ?

Beans and runny yolk.

 

Both reasons for fried bread. As are tattie scones.

I would't let my beans touch a tattie scone. Brown sauce and a runny yolk for the tattie scone.

Black pudding, obviously.

 

But, what about fruit pudding?  That still a 'thing"?

 

Dumpling by any other name, innit?

No, thats different, I'm sure.  Dumplings were either what my mum dropped into stews or was served alongside roast beef and roasters.

 

Fruit pudding was shaped liked black pudding but white and erm... fruity.

Clouty (clooty) dumpling, rather than the doughball type dumplings used in stew or similar.

Agreed, that's a dumpling. We would have eaten that after our tea with custard.

 

Fruit pudding however was/is sliced thin like blackie and fried for breakfast.

Correct.

 

That is clooty pudding, for sure

But a slice fried as part of a breakfast fry up is also a nice addition, and the fruit pudding is quite similar, but probably has a bit more suet in it.

They are essential, mon ami.  Mind you I love tomatoes. 

 

Correct Jonno they go wonderfully with sausages. Clearly you are also a man of culture and taste! :laugh:

I discovered that McDonalds hash browns bear no resemblance to actual hash browns when i moved over here.  Over here they are grated potato that is fried up on a greased hotplate and are excellent when mixed with cheese.  McDonalds are just deep fried tattie substitute.

 

I should also add my voice to the "should never be near a Scottish breakfast" argument too. In my opinion, the only tattie based product in a scottish breakfast should be tattie scones.  As for you weirdos that like tomatoes with your fry up, you should be ashamed of yourselves.
