LJS was always an extravagant treat when I was a kid as it was seemingly more expensive than McDonald's or Taco Bell, and further away from where we lived.
When I started making my own money, it was one of my regular indulgences.
As an adult, I rarely ever see them anymore. And when I do go (it's been years), I'm always left feeling sick to my stomach, and yet still hungry. The portions sizes have shrunk considerably, even more shrinkflation. The greasiness, while expected with that kind of food, it so much worse. The fries are soggy, and you hardly ever get any crunchies anymore!
I missed the late 90's LJS something terrible. :)

- gwbas1c 2y agoMaybe your standards are refined now that you're older? My kids love crap food, and I sometimes have to sigh and go to places I'd rather not go because my kids think it's the best thing since sliced bread. Granted, my only experience with LJS are stories from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wayne_Coyne https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wayne_Coyne (2nd paragraph, "Early Life" section.)
- WesleyJohnson 2y agoThat's certainly possible - and likely. I hadn't thought about it from that perspective.
