Now anyone that knows me can see that I am a bit of a food connoisseur. There isn\'t much out there that I wont try, let alone not finish. Well today, I met my match. In case you haven\'t heard, McDonalds is offering up a free McSkillet today and tomorrow (2/28-2/29) to anyone that purchases a medium or large pop during breakfast hours.
Despite my better judgment (why would anyone give away anything for free unless the sales suck), I went ahead and ordered a medium coke so I could claim my free prize. Maybe it is the upper Midwest Ohio native in me, but the McDonald\'s McSkillet is awful. It tasted like sh*t, plain and simple. A flour tortilla wrapped around a halved sausage patty, some mushy potatoes, salsa, shredded cheese and some other putrid sauce just did not sit well with my taste buds or my stomach. I normally love McDonald\'s food, but this is one thing I will never try again.
Here I am an hour and a half later, and my stomach is churning and the foul after taste is still resonating in my mouth. If I had to pull a silver lining out of the experience, I would say that it woke me up out of my normal morning stupor. I know there are people that probably love this thing, but this guy isn\'t one of them.
