- Comment on Has Fast Food Gotten Worse, or Am I Just Getting Old? 4 months ago:
I’m 60 now and am literally a Boomer; fast food has definitely gotten worse. Especially in the last 10 years or so. The foods and processes have been tweaked and tuned to the point that the value of the food hovers just barely above the price and not a tick more.
Health concerns also play a role. McDonald’s fries are a good example. When I was young they were cooked in beef tallow and they were so good they would roll your eyes back in your head in in ecstacy (not kidding). They switched to vegetable oil due to health concerns over saturated fats and they’ve just never been the same.

Islay Scotland has burned a shitton of peat over the last couple of centuries to make malt whisky and it’s very small. Wonder how much if their elevation they’ve burned?
