Social Science So do you eat the burger then chips, or eat the chips then the burger?

[Jesse Custer]

Start off with a few fries then eat both at the same time.

 

[Jesse Custer]

But do you sit down or stand up to eat?

I believe thats very important. Depends on my mood.

 

[BALKAN]

I really don't understand people who eat one before the other. Mixing it up is the only way to go.

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

If it's a Maccas burger then you have to put chips in it. Any other kind of burger--why wouldn't you mix it up?

Sometimes eating chips first is important as they can go cold after the burger.

Well, I'm a pretty slow eater.

Interesting. I'm a super fast eater--I can't break the habit of wolfing down food all the time since I used to be a restaurant manager. No breaks means scoffing your meal in 5 minutes.

Sounds like a nightmare!

I wouldn't consider myself a foodie, as I'll eat anything but I have to have my meals... enjoyable.

Like, I have to sit and do something while I eat. Like watch TV, listen to a podcast, read a book. I'm a slow eater, and I hate wolfing food down.

I also hate eating while on the move, or like on the train or something. Even in cars I'm not a fan. Need to sit down, relax and enjoy it.

most of the time i eat the chips first because they go cold faster and they don't taste great when cold

Im the same. If eating by myself, i must have some form of entertainment material to go with it. Must have.

Personally, I usually have a few chips to start off, then eat the burger, then finish the chips.

But NEVER have chips while mid-burger.

Oh you!

 

[Macca19]

Chips, then Burger. Any other way is quite simply ridiculous.

 

[Bardo State]

Minimal chips
->
Half the burger
->
More chips
->
Finish burger
->
Finish chips

If all goes to plan you have enough drink left to wash down the saltiness of the last of the chips.

I keep the vegemite in the cupboard.

I keep the vegemite in the cupboard.

Nah, to much effort to retrieve said Vegemite.

I keep mine directly next to my toaster.

 

[Stratton_Gun]

Chips then burger always

 

[Juggs Magnetic]

Always start and finish with chips. Generally have a few chips throughout the burger eating, but much always hold the burger while eating the chips. Can't put the burger down.

 

[wally funk]

Start with the burger. Have a few chips along the way but mostly saved for after the burger. The only way. The correct way.

 

[BotsMaster]

Burger and chips at the same time.

I also put my takeaway on a plate which I have been told is weird.

If we're talking just burger/wraps and chips then yes you put it on a plate or a placemat at the very least. Pizza you can have on a napkin or on the cardboard box it came in.

Defs mix it up and have a drink as well. Takeaway food can be hard work sometimes.

Trying to ensure you eat the right amount of salad with steak throughout the whole meal is harder

 

[Paul Kersey]

Couple of chips to clear some room. Then attack the burger.

Went to the Embassy Cafe today - great no bullshit burger and chips meal. Place was filled with Greek hire car drivers talking s**t and smoking durries.

Sensational.

Yep. It's such a waste to finish the chips and not have room for the burger.

 

[MWPP]

To be honest I tend to just order one or the other if we're going to a burger joint (I'm petite and don't have a huge appetite and find I can never finish both on my own) unless someone's happy to share with me (or finish it for me!). In which case, a few chips first, then the burger with maybe a few more chips in between. Does anyone else put chips into their burger?

 

[Barry_Badrinath]

Worst to first, chips to burger.

This counts for every meal ever. Veggies, mash, protein.

Rice before curry often without mixing.

Salad, chips, schnitzel.

Etc
Etc never mix ever.

My thoughts exactly. It's all about that after-taste.

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Chips first always.

 

[savagelunchbox]

I have the toilet paper over, not under.
