FRIDAY FICTIONEERS
It’s Friday and time for fiction of 100 words, hosted by Rochelle Wisoff-Fields.
Fred’s tray was full – a Double Big Mac, Chicken Nuggets, double fries, a large root beer. and a free Premium salad with a coupon. What a yummy deal of a meal! He can’t wait to bite into it.
Mmmmm! Looks good, taste great. What’s this nonsense about McDonald’s meat not fit for humans? Who is Chef Jamie Oliver? He should mind his own business.
That kid better stop pounding on that toy piano. Annoyed, he muttered, “Chopsticks! I’ll chop…”
He stopped mid sentence, sweat breaking over his blue face, eyes glazing over while the tinny strain of Chopsticks played on.


Here from UBC, Hi Lily, what a fun Friday thing :)N
Thanks for reading!

Fun post, thanks Lily!
Yes, it was fun!
Lily
Sounds like something out of Supersize Me.
🙂
so what was it that got him?
the big mac, the double fries – I bet he choked on a nugget.
Or did the kid do him in, slamming his piano over the guy’s meathead.

I never said how, did I? That was the beauty of it. McDonald’s can’t sue me for slander! I did worry about it. 🙂
Lily
Loved it! Great title!
Thanks! A very good title. 🙂
McDonalds food is really gross, haha but from time to time, i end up cheating and going to the drive-thru for some fries. enjoyed your fun take on the prompt 🙂
Thanks for reading!
Dear Lily,
Love the connotations of death by Chopsticks LOL. That really is a “meal” to die for. Diabetes, high cholesterol. Heart attack on a bun. Good job.
Shalom,
Rochelle
Thank you Rochelle! This is very good therapy for me.
Lily
Very well done! Makes me glad I only have fast food maybe once or twice a year, if that.
I love the food but I know I have to restrict for health 🙂
Clever and legally sound 😀
Nicely written, enjoyed. Title is great.
Thank you!
Lily, Well written. I doubt very much if the chain sues over each and every person who says or writes something negative. That would bring even more negative press. Darkly humorous and well done. 🙂 —Susan
Poor Fred. He should have listened. No excuses, we all know.
Good story.
Thank you!
Lily
Love the idea of the free premium salad! Almost makes the meal seem healthy. Almost.
Thanks Alicia! 🙂

Dear Lily, This is a great story and I can see where a large, starving man sits down to eat and becomes annoyed over something so trivial as chopsticks! Your title says it all and is extremely clever and witty. I LOVE IT! Love it! Nan 🙂
Thank you, Nan! Much appreciated. I’m moving a little slow lately with the summer and laziness. 🙂
Lily
Made me 🙂
