Not usually lumped in with the fast food restaurants but Captain D's fries make me moist. Especially when there's some "cracklins" scattered around from the fish batter.

By the way, one of the old Captain D's here in Dothan went up in flames last week. I don't imagine it had anything to do with excessive grease build up. Naaaa...

You prefer the Cap'n over Long John?

The thing I used to love was Hardee's chicken. Don't know of any Hardees making the chicken any more. So I have to settle for Jack's.

Jack's fries with the seasoned salt are pretty tasty.

Balanced meal? Jack's regular hamburger, order of fries, two-piece chicken basket (all dark) with a biscuit. Large Dr. Pepper and fried lemon pie. That's good stuff there.

The best seasoned fries ever have to belong to Milo's

So you're saying you like the dark meat. Interesting.

I have no idea. I've never been to McDonalds for a dine in experience.

You must not have kids.

You don't drive through McDonalds when you have small children and there's a glistening Mini-Disneyland looming over the parking lot. Climb right up in Mayor McCheese's ass and slide out the Grimace's colon after traversing the Hamburglar maze. Oh yeah.

Jack's are softer. They got that going for them. Seasoning is about the same.

And yeah, I prefer the dark chicken meat. Give me two thighs and a leg any day over a fat breast. And a mess of livers, too, if you can find them.

Speaking of Livers, KFC has the best fried chicken livers short of my mom's homemade livers

You have to be 3'6" or shorter to ride. So it's pretty much limited to midgets and snot-nosed kids.

I gotta take you to Crenshaw county about 25 miles South of Montgomery on 331. Mom and Pop filling station that cooks'em fresh everyday day stating about 11.

Seriously? I'm a liver afficionado. I've always steered clear of fast-food livers, though and never tried KFC.

I've been known to drive into ghettos in unfamiliar southern cities looking for that converted house that says "Bertha Chickan Shax" on a painted wooden sign above the door because I feel certain that the livers there will be exemplary.

Found a place in Tuscaloosa just off the projects on MLK Drive that was nothing more than a block building with a tin roof on it. Served livers and collards. They knew me by name there.

KFC livers are willing when you can't get anything else. A true godsend from the hinterlands of Minnesota. Not all places have them up there.

The good thing about KFC livers is that they are always fresh and made to order. I don't think they sell a lot so when you order them they make them fresh. They are made with the KFC secret recope breading and are delicious and hot out of the fryer.

I'm in. I have to go to Montgomery next week I think.

There's a place in Aliceville (across from Jack's, actually) that serves good livers. Will try to remember some other places I've been. I never hesitate to get the gas station ones sitting under the heat lamps. Always get a single just to try it. Some places try to pass gizzards off as livers. I'm not having that.

I had the livers at Cracker Barrell over the holidays and they were not very good. Just FYI so you don't waste your money.

I avoid the Crapper Barrell if at all possible. That's gummy grandma food.
