Michael Phelps' 12,000 calories a day notwithstanding, I'm dubious that the US Olympic teams are marching en masse to the Beijing Mickey D's for their pre-event chowdown. Still, that shouldn't stop you from pole vaulting on over to Facetheglory.com to download a coupon for a free Southern Style Biscuit or Sandwich today. Come armed with a hearty appetite and a color cartridge, 'cause the coupon is valid from August 15th through September 1st, and only if it's printed in color.Yeah, I know that the analagous Chick-Fil-A sandwich tends to be the crowd favorite 'round these parts, but really, are you gonna look a gift chicken in the mouth?
*A reader just brought to my attention that a medium or large drink must be purchased to receive the freebie. I highly recommend the Sweet Tea.

I wouldn't waste my ink printing out that coupn anytime soon.

Most of the posts are peppered with references to how obese Americans are, how great this or that recipe will be if you're on the latest fad diet, blah blah blah and the remainder are "here's how you can get some free, crap, processed, fat and salt laden food" ...

In fact, we've started marinating our chicken boobies in left-over pickle juice.... it makes the chicken soooo yummy!

I'm more into the usual stuff like a BigMac.
Anyways, if you're ever in Sweden try the cool concept called Just-Eat at http://www.just-eat.se - it's quite cool cause you can order pizza and burger online. It's perfect when you're hungover on a sunday morning -_-

I get my Chick-fil-a sandwiches without the pickle, and ordered this the same way. The chicken breast seemed to be soaked in the stuff. Next time, I'll just wait until I'm close enough to get a real one.
