Fancy Fast Food

It would so rock if somebody were to serve this re-fabricated cuisine at some fancy restaurant and see if diners actually noticed the difference.

Brilliant!

If you're going to take that much time and trouble - just cook REAL food. Better tasting, better for ya.

Why do I think this is a viral attempt by chain restaurants to be cool? Like those lame pizza chain ads with their pasta, fooling the few polite/drunken/stupid Italians they could capture on camera who declared the food "deliciosa" or whatever. I suspect trickery. Bah.

Chain food is designed to taste good, and yet it often fails. I'd love to imagine this quaint little quiche is a gourmet delight. Countless breakfast-desperate, chain-indiscriminate mornings tell me otherwise.

Those look really good. I agree w/ WordyGrrl, it'd be funny to see one of those Penn and Teller-type TV shows have this food served at high prices at fancy restaurants and see how the clientele reacts.

I second that VonSkippy just make proper food and get on with it, its far better for you

I think one of the chef competition shows such as Top Chef had a challenge like this where they had to create cuisine by shopping at fast food restaurants, or maybe it was vending machines.

You can polish a turd, but it's still a turd. VonSkippy has it right.

Brokelyn talked to the guy (he lives in Williamsburg, Brooklyn) and he eats the stuff: http://tinyurl.com/m8eu7t

@SenorMysterioso - it was a Top Chef (and Top Chef Masters) vending machine challenge.

For some reason this kind of turns my stomach.

Is that like putting lipstick on bacon?

Looks good, but as I was reading the directions, I realise the recipes called for blending the food in a food processor or at least making some kind of paste from the already cooked food. Didn't sound so appetising after that, though yeah, it would certainly be interesting to see the looks on people's faces if the food was served to them in a gourmet restaurant - and that it actually tasted good.

I would like to serve it up and like that at a party and see how it goes over. Take a bigmac and run it through the food processor and serve it up as a casserole.
