My GF, a clinical dietician, lectures and complains when I order onion rings in a restaurant. Then the bitch eats half of them when they arrive...

Years ago, Popeye's Chicken used to make onion rings using a flour-based batter. They were made from Spanish onions, made fresh on the premises. They were really very good. Then, a few years back, they changed to this cornmeal-based batter and they were made in some damn factory in the Midwest or something like that, and they came into the store frozen. Ick.

Man, I miss those onion rings.

In the old days, when the country was great, well, mostly great, when you had a product that pleased your customers, you kept it, cared for it, sold as many as you could. You had a good product, at a fair price, and smiled while you took the money. Happy, happy!

Then somebody started offering an MBA. Somewhere in the MBA curriculum, there is an important lesson, that when customers are THAT happy with a product or service, it means you are wasting too much money on it and all efforts must be made to find a way to make it cheaper, similar, but cheaper for the same price, or hopefully at a higher price, new and improved, and with the right ad budget, you can sell even more!




Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

Any time we go to Arby's I always order the onion rings and dip them into their horsy sauce. They're not the very best but better than any other fast food place. Damn, I'm getting hungry for some right now.

Hot tip for those of you in the Orlando area: Boston's Fish House on Aloma Ave in Winter Park, just around the corner from East Orange Shooting Sports, has some of the best onion rings and onion nuggets that I have ever had.

Their fish and shellfish are great, too.

Speaking of, I just got an air fryer counter top gadget. I wonder if I could make good home made onion rings in it?

Hey Shugart, I posted your corn on the cob microwave recipe over on the S&W forum and it was a big hit. I gave you credit but I don't think anyone knew who you are? Big Grin

Yeah. That’s when all that baloney about supply and demand curves gets hauled out and put on spreadsheets.

The popularity of the MBA coincided approximately with the release of Visicalc, I think.

Anybody from a place other than Colorado have "Frings" as an option? Around here, you can order Frings, which are a half order of fries and a half order of onion rings. I used to go to CA from time to time and tried to order frings...they looked at me like I had 3 heads.

Just a Colorado thing?

The onion rings in that video look great. I found the video on youtoob, which has the link to the ingredients. I'll be making them in a few weeks. Never made onion rings before.

The best Onions rings from a Fast Food joint I have ever had was at Hardee's. I'll also state their charbroiled thickburger makes Burger Kings Whopper taste like something that was left out much too long.


I've stopped counting.
