No desire for fast food. Complete social outcast?

Davarus Walrus

I was in the pub this evening having a few after work. Managed to get in my 2500 calories. Feeling slightly worse for wear - we headed down towards the local chipper. Big talk about battered sausages, onion rings, garlic and cheese chips; spice burgers, and chip baguettes. A rather large friend of mine boasted that he was going to eat an entire fried chicken drowned in curry sauce.

As we entered the chipper I told the lads that I didn't feel like eating fast food. You'd think that I had taken each of them aside individually and told them that I'd seduced their Mother - before ignoring her calls. Getting right thick.

Does anyone else not get a major goo on them for fast food after a night on the beer? Prefer a pint of water and a hearty breakfast in the morning? And if you don't, what does eating chips out of a metal tray do for you?

Ok, fine.




Then what?

Not gonna lie, I often go on the beer just because I know how much I am gonna enjoy the fast food at the end of the night.

Sir Arthur Daley

I like fast food and fast women.

The One Doctor

I don't really like eating when drunk, nothing tastes right.

That is what I'm trying to understand. You'd wander down Wexford Street on a Saturday night and see lots of men with kebab sauce wandering down their face and onto their shirts'. After filling your belly with beer I don't see why you'd want to devour a kebab. Doesn't it make you feel worse? Should the recovery eating not take place the next day after deciding how bad the hangover is?

Ficheall

**** you, OP.

Now I want fast food

When you're not engaging in fast food, they are subconsciously questioning their own additive/unhealthy habits which in turn is putting them on the defensive. I wouldn't worry about it too much, however annoying it might be.

Yeah. He wasn't meeting them after he ran the iron man.

dude you're over thinking it...

Yeh but....did you seduce their mothers?

Frank Lee Midere

Odd that the OP counted his beer calories. Sounds like 10 beers? Or was the 2500 calories the entire day.

I generally don't go on sessions anymore ( although saying that I will tomorrow) but food after beer is because you tend to loose self control and it does taste good. Specially the spicy stuff. I have no idea if I really like kebabs but I do when drunk.

foggy_lad

Large taco cheese chips and a quarter pounder with cheese pleasee with a spice burger doner kebab and batter burger and bottle of club orange.

Hard to ride after fast food.

So order your food and tell the clerk, no hurry

DEFTLEFTHAND

Some lads lose the run of themselves with a few drinks on board, I find it repulsive the way they gorge on these big fat greasy meals, it either puts them to sleep or initiates a vomiting episode. I prefer to head back to a house for a nightcap and listen to a few tunes before bed.

Soakage after the fact.

I love my cider and I adore single malt whiskey, but I have no interest in eating fast food. An apple when I come home is good enough for me!!

Nope, neither do I, so we're just very lucky. Count your blessings.

I've heard that the 'gossip from the servants down the cellar' are appalling while a gent is trying to maintain his stroke.

I like fast food without alcohol... Am I a social outcast too?

My bad he didn't, he had his calorie intake as part of a controlled diet.

How Soon Is Now

I sat one morning in Zaytoon in Temple bar watching one of me mates and me girlfriend eating what could only be described as a ''Thick soggy purple wrap''

I was fairly drunk at that stage but not that ****ing drunk!.

On yeah. Zaytoons. And abrakebabra. Can't say if either is any good because only ever eaten there drunk.

Basically after beers you probably aren't hankering for a salad.

Karl Stein

You made this all up. You were at home all night with your collection of mannequins.

I have distant memories of enjoying a kebab in Zaytoon how i dont fecking know!

Pure muck. Ive actually got to stage where i prefer making a nice sambo when i get home fecking cheaper as well. Thats if i get that far though!! last week i ended up asleep in the hall........

Having done the minimum amount of reading, I think it's to do with salt.

Going on the beer in particular causes lots of urination which means you run low on salt. Salt already tastes delicious, but it tastes even more delicious when you're madly craving it.

qo2cj1dsne8y4k

I think I'm broken. There's nothing I love more than eating terrible food (mostly Chinese) but when I'm drunk, I have no interest in it at all. The more drunk I am, the less likely I am to have anything. So, usually I just sit in supermacs, barely able to keep my head up, hiccuping, while everyone else mows into their burgers and chips.

Same when I'm hungover, no interest in eating and it's the one day of the week terrible food is justified. I used to live with 5 boys, who'd all be hungover on a Sunday and their day would go something like
Sausages and eggs for breakfast.
Die on the couch with coke Pringles and almond magnums
Dinner which was usually a pizza or food from supermacs
Maybe a takeaway that night.

I'd be lucky if I was back eating the next day

Thats just being a ****ing savage i dont understand how eating a ton of total ****e food fixs anything makes me feel worse!.

A good spicy Indian curry does the job. Actually theres something that will sober anyone up after a night out something incredibly hot! I had a burrito one time at about 4 in the morning which was dosed in all kinds of hot sauces when i went to the jacks i actually lost my speech for a good while just mumbles!! Well i clearly wasnt that drunk anymore :pac:

In the sober light of day I'd rather have a lobotomy than a spice burger or a kebab, but once I'm pissed all common sense and impulse control goes out the window, and I'll have what anyone else is having and probably lose half of it by dribbling it down my face.

I think it's just a part of drinking culture in Ireland, not helped by the fact that most fast food places will be the only food joints that stay open til 3am to facilitate it.

Since starting to eat healthily and exercise my cravings for fast food have waned significantly. Even after a night out.

I'd rather make my own burgers from lean mince if I wanted one.

Uh, what did you go to the chipper for? And why are you measuring your booze intake in calories.

You're doing it wrong.

Being pissed and cooking is not a good idea,a buddy of mine set fire to his apartment when he decided to cook a post session feed & fell asleep while waiting for it to cook.

My BF and most his pals don't, and since I've started going out with him, neither do I! \o/

Whereas, when I'd go out with college friends, I'd always indulge afterwards. So for me, it appears I go with the flow.

"I'm a very stylish and sophisticated person and everyone who eats a kebab is a pleb.." is what I have taken from this. I love kebabs. Meaty Stuff in a handy pastry plate..what's not to like? No washing up either. Win- Win.

Tarzana

Yep, kebabs done well are lovely. Grilled marinated meat, lots of veg, hot sauce, nice bread, what's not to love?

Zaytoon is good, very good.

You have to be absolutely off your face drunk to eat Abrakebabra. You could eat Zaytoon any time.
