in my best Steve Martin voice:
“i was born a poor black child.”
as a small kid we ate out maybe once every month or two at the malt shop down the street. i still remember the taste of the cheeseburger deluxe (lettuce, tomato & mayo), and was so disappointed the first time i had a cheeseburger at McDonalds years later.
i’ve always been thin & as a teenager i preferred just the burger w/ no cheese, but pile on all the other fixins. i got to the point where i just wanted the beef pattie with s/p sans bun or anything else except many fried onions on top. i often ate the beef pattie with a side of cottage cheese though.
