The Singapore variants aren't that bad. Granted, I don't eat it every day, so I make it a treat. :D

But it's only good for the first < 15-20 mins. After that... the quality and taste dropped from "golden and delicious" to "Oh GOD tastes like paper!"

The one in Durban I remember being ok, though it didn't do a good job at making me think America could ever have good food.

But it's only good for the first < 15-20 mins. After that... the quality and taste dropped from "golden and delicious" to "Oh GOD tastes like paper!"

Sounds like the American ones except always tasting like paper.

Back in the day when even they had quality control, after 10 min they would dump the food, dumpster diving at McDonald's was a pastime.

Huh, TIL. I wonder if they tried to get away, or at least tried to do this thing where you could get the cheaper option, i.e. prices are 50% off, but the food is 15 < x < 30 mins since cooked.

Of course, that was just a fever dream I had, and I can totally see the health implications.
