Taliban condemn Pakistan city's first McDonald's: "we don't even consider it as a food."

Wife and I get fresh kombucha / ginger beer from the local place. They fill growlers. Try Mission Brewery here in San Diego, wonderful brewed root beer / sarsaparilla / hard sodas on tap daily. Stuff mixes very well with a spirits. You won’t want to drink a dozen, but they are great in small doses.

KFC has done wonders overseas.

Why? We have enough murderous nutbars at home and we have an equal ability to understand their hatred.

I assume you know that devout Muslims have a religious prohibition against alcohol. It is why some of my local markets (run by Muslims) won’t sell it, even to people like me.

Khakis, man. You need khakis in the desert. To blend in.

McDonalds are almost everywhere. They are huge in Malaysia, even though McChicken got to keep that particular name.

Perhaps it’s a question of prescribing a certain diet for fighters or jihadis not proscribing a certain diet for Muslims in general the distinction between which got lost by the taliban.

Best Mickey D’s I’ve ever had: just outside Kadena Air Base in Okinawa. I ordered, they gave me a number, I sat down, and three minutes later I got what looked to be exactly like the food in the commercials–steaming hot and damned good, and that’s without throwing in the cheerful, smiling employees. All of which puzzled me in no small number of ways.

The fucking Taliban is forcing me to defend McDonalds fare as “food” out of patriotism.
