Sometimes I feel like I'm the only person who does not like ranch flavoring. To a lesser degree, I don't like apple pie either. Like, if I was served a slice of apple pie and courtesy required me to at least eat a few bites, I would. But I would absolutely not if it was a dish, say, covered in ranch dressing.

I have no nostalgia for it as we couldn’t afford to eat out when I was growing up.

We were new immigrants so we were broke af, but still, me and my (older) brother, occasionaly went to a nearby McDonalds. Around 2010s. Stuff was good. Big Mac, McChicken, and I think the most memorable were McNuggets and Fries. Big Mac was like $4/$5 so its rare to have those. Like maybe once in a while, there's a promotion buy 1 get 1 free or half off and me and my brother would each have one.

You know the 20 piece McNuggets that is in one box, well that was so much trouble, we had to split it, and literally had to count each one, and there's always a fight about like fairness, like which pieces are bigger or something, and its its odd numbered, that's gonna be even more problems, so we'd just let mom have it. Thanks bro, appreciate it lol. Buy hey, at least we both have less lmao, so smart of you...

Nowadays, their stuff taste so bad.
