    I was a fan in the '80s and '90s. Now? Hell no.

      Isn’t that kinda true for all fast food these days? If time travel existed I’d use it to try fast food back when it was supposed to be good to see if memory lives up to the hype.

        Was Long John Silvers even around in the 80s? The quality of fast food was definitely better, but I think there were fewer options. I remember Taco Bell was not absolute garbage back then.

        It seems like by the 90s you had more options. 90s JITB was awesome.

          Yeah LJS has been around since 1969, and they were incredibly unhealthy until the 2000s. Now they’re merely mostly unhealthy lol. And idk, it depends on what you were looking for. Taco Bell was great in the 90s, at least nearby my hometown, but the quality could shift a lot from location to location.

          Finally enough I avoided JITB until the 2000s because of some big e.coli scare in…1995? I think? I knew nothing about them until that because they weren’t in my part of the country then, but even when out of state, I wouldn’t go there because of my first impressions coming from the news. Pretty damn good stuff by the time I did go.
