Speaker 1 (00:09):
Hello, Welcome to the cutting room floor.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
Hi.

Speaker 1 (00:12):
Do you like McDonald's.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
Yes, I haven't had one for a while because I
try not to make it a regular part of my
diet if I'm hungover. Is there a more nutritious and
delicious meal alive? No?

Speaker 1 (00:28):
What's your go to meal? The McDonald's.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
I haven't had one for a long time, but a
quarter pounded with cheese. I've got a friend who when
she comes to join me on the South Coast, we'll
always stop at macas and get some nuggets. I don't
understand the appeal of nuggets. It's just grease on your fingers,
fat on your thighs. McDonald's, I don't get the nuggets.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
McDonald's nugs are the best nugs in the business.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
But is there any nug in it? Batter?

Speaker 1 (00:50):
Now, there's nug in there that's chicken.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
Is it tender or is it just dry off?

Speaker 3 (00:55):
And when McDonald's brought out that she can nugget to
counteract KFC's chicken nuggets, I thought you're on a hiding
to nowhere. Because the colonel, he knows a bit about chicken,
and I reckon in the nug game. I'd like to
do a poll on this McDonald nugs versus KFC nugs,
and I would say all day, I do like KFC nugs,

(01:19):
and I like their tenders they're really good, But the
McDonald's nugs are the king of the nug work.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
I know you're enjoying saying nug and you're over egging
the nug. What's your go to McDonald's meal? I like.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
I like just the plane cheeseburger. Only two of those
plane cheeseburgers, no chips, nothing.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
Else on What are the circumstances? I usually hungover or
so I say every Sunday.

Speaker 3 (01:46):
Yeah so, but I haven't had McDonald's. I can't remember
the last time I had McDonald's. But two plaining cheeseburgers yum.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
You also, was it you telling me you'd had a
cab driver that once convinced you that the best dessert
in the universe, The cab driver Special was one of
those apple pies dipped in a flurry.

Speaker 3 (02:03):
In a soft served cone. You just get the soft
served cone and you get the upper pie. It's the
cab driver Special. You can eat it while you're driving
your cab.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
What do you hold? What do you hold?

Speaker 1 (02:11):
That's what I said to it. You still need to
I said, you've got to hold the cone and you
got the coal.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
The cone isn't as big as the apple pie.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
I pointed this out to him.

Speaker 3 (02:20):
But we were pulled over the side of the road
having a cab driver.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
Special, right, so you needed two hands.

Speaker 3 (02:25):
Yeah, because we're on the way I'm talking about, I said, well,
let's pull it in this McDonald's and get one.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
Does the ice cream soften the heat? Because the apple pies.

Speaker 3 (02:36):
What you do is you dip the apple pie into
and you eat, eat it, and then.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
It down to the bottomy part and ummy cone.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
It's so young and it's not just you know how
when you have an ice cream and a cone and
the half of the bottom cone is just empty, don't
waste But you can't.

Speaker 1 (02:54):
You can't f around with it.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
You've got to be quick because then you just get
a slop fest and you don't want that, not in
your care. But anyway, the reason I'm talking about McDonald's,
did you know if you went to McDonald's in Iceland
you wouldn't get any of that because there is no
McDonald's in.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
Iceland, never has been.

Speaker 1 (03:10):
A two thousand and nine they left. There was McDonald's,
but they left a horseta.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
Smaharsan bought a final burger and fries to test the
claim that they never decompose.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
So bought the last. He bought the last.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
Burger and fries in Iceland.

Speaker 3 (03:30):
After three years, with no visible decay, he donated them
to the National Museum of Iceland, but they later returned it.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
So so two thousand and nine, three years later, there
was no visible decay. He gave it to a museum
and then they gave it back to him. And where
is it now now?

Speaker 3 (03:46):
The mill sits on display at Nooritra House, a hostel
in southern Iceland, where it's live streamed for curious viewers.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
Two thousand and nine it's still there.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
So there it is. You can see it now. I'm
like fifty years later. Look at it.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
Well, the burger looks a little whitish. Yeah, yeah, but
the chips the packaging has faded, but the food hasn't.
Rather than that being a good sign, I think that's
a sign of a lot of preservative.

Speaker 3 (04:13):
It's a little scary that the packaging has weathered but
the food has not. Yes, I'd like to test that
with a few nugs, but they don't last long enough.

Speaker 2 (04:20):
Is it in a sealed, temperature controlled area, like just
out in the open. What's the cigartorium.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
Called a humid dodoor?

Speaker 2 (04:29):
Humid door for Macas?

Speaker 3 (04:30):
Yeah, I know, it's just out there in the wild. No,
it's behind gloss, behind glass. It's like he's put it
in a display case. But Iceland as well is quite cold. Yes,
so that would be okay.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
I think you have you think you can get a
warm summer.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
Yeah, but it's not going to be like the nulliball.

Speaker 2 (04:49):
No, no, imagine it would not survive in the nulla ball.

Speaker 3 (04:51):
I wonder if anyone gets I wonder if Hordota gets
hungry every now.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
And then, particularly I'm sure that's just how you pronounce
his name.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
Because he would you go on some nugs.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
But I'm proud of Iceland for saying no to Macas.
Do they know the power of the nug?

Speaker 3 (05:08):
The nug It's the greatest sex And now waste my
time any of that source bullshit. Either, I just eat
my nugs.

Speaker 2 (05:14):
Natural cabs hate that too.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
Okay, cures, that's imposity. Come back them all in the hole,
don't on the floor.
