Vested Interest - Food Fight Friday - Round 24
Hey what’s up #steemit, how the heck are ya?! Happy Friday! Welcome back to kitchen #fff, where’s all the chefs at?? Give it up for our chefs everybody, how’bout a big round of applause for Steemit’s finest kitchen help Chefs! I know where one of those chefs is—in the clouds! literally I just dropped Pura Vida off at LGB with a destination that’s home to the Golden Gate Bridge—San Francisco, California. I’ll meet up with her again on Tuesday and then we’ll board a plane together. The one that flies over several borders.
I know what you’re thinking, “what’s this got to do with #fff and where did ‘Vested Interest’ come from?” Right? 😉 Isn’t that what you were thinking? Well, I’m glad you thought that! For starters, you don’t need multiple raceways for electricity when your signs are stacked together, you can get away with a single conduit.
I had a tough time deciding what to title this one, I considered calling it Crude Oil but I didn’t want anyone to confuse unrefined oil with cooking lard. I went with Crude Oil Vested Interest instead. I don’t think McDonalds has a vested interest in Chevron, I think it’s the other way around, I’ll show what I mean in just a minute.
This Round 24 contender stems from last weeks contender when we learned McDonalds is a whole bunch of liars, remember? That goes for Burger King, too. They claim they sell hamburgers but when we looked up burger in the dictionary last week, we learned burger means:
- “Hamburger”
- “Containing ingredients other than beef.”
Quick recap. Yesterday I entered this article into the #mycalifornia competition, hosted by @socalsteemit. It’s several images of oil drilling rigs in peculiar places, such as a restaurant parking lot. That post caught a good deal of traction—it gave me an idea! “Vested Interest.” Who do you think has the vested interest in who? McDonalds over Chevron or the other way around?
Main entrance:
So far, so good, right? Typical McDonalds with typical parking, Golden Arches in red and yellow etc. and what’s a McDonalds without a drive-thru?
But if you walk around the back of McDonalds, across the drive-thru and up to the Radisson Hotel parking lot, I think you’ll agree Chevron is the one with a Vested Interest—another oil drilling rig.
Same place next week, deal? You don’t have to #cook, although this is a food #blog and, for the most part, food blogs are made up of chefs and cooks. @foodfightfriday isn’t a ‘for the most part’ kitchen. It’s cool if you just do something like take pictures of oil rigs in a McDonalds parking lot, post it on Friday, make #fff your first tag and enter it for a chance to win 3 @sbi—they’re dishing out 3 #steembasicincome every week. Have a great weekend Steemit! I’ll see you again on Monday—I got something for you @sivehead. 😉

comment number 1:
I would still get a big mac meal xxx large staring at that beautiful metallic sculpture, I am sure the artist wanted to express his love for oil and the industrial era.
Comment number 2:
$3.39 for a burger, fries, nuggets and a soda.
$1.69 for 1 Honey-Crisp apple. that’s not an accident
Thank for stopping by @edprivat. Happy 2019. I got a comedy piece I’m putting out today, stop by later if you remember. :knuckles: <— all around the board.
edit I just noticed I didn’t upvote your comment. My bad. About that.. I traded our car for Steem.
How dare you !!!! It's ok , you were pretty busy travelling :)
I hope you made a safe one... Cheers buddy
Howdy sir dandays! haha! this is great, I love those oils wells, wish we had one behind our house! Very cool post sir dandays!
this is so painful for me but I'm recharging my voting power, it got down to 39% yesterday so it will take a couple days to recharge.
Not a problem @janton. In fact, the opposite, you’re all the way down to 39%?! That means you’ve been giving away all kinda love... I love it!
haha! oh I'm terrible, I'm always down in the 30s and 40s that's why I need to change. I had a businessman look at my account the other day and read me the riot act about what a disaster it was and how terrible of a job I was doing! lol., Which I knew, I just hadn't taken the time to set things up properly like auto voting and being disciplined.
But now I'm going to try that.
That oil pump thing looks like a decoration to me. 🧐🤔
Hey, hey!! This sure is a pleasant surprise, good morning from Los Angeles!
Thanks for stopping by @scorer, we both really appreciate all of your support—thank you!
McDonald's and oil rigs, they seem to be a perfect match.
Both provide you with gas.
Be safe in your travels.
Oh crap! What a great reference. Haha. The ‘gas’ part, I mean, not the ‘crap’ part. Well.....
Thanks for stopping by @thebigsweed. Ain’t #fff great?! “Food related” is all it takes and we’re so far into it now, the community is at a point where our food fight contenders are expected on Friday. Good stuff! I’m glad you’re in the kitchen with us.
hahahha
Food Fight Friday
May your contender survive and not be placed in a permanent food coma.
Thank you @foodfightfriday.
3.39? Wtf? What are you living in Cali?🤣
Freaking Corporations Brah.
Man, I was hoping someone would say something about the price of gas, thanks! And that station is inland about 2 miles, that’s affordable, believe it or not. Heck.. iheart California where $3.89/gallon is “Mornal.”
Thanks for stopping by @weirdheadaches. Happy Saturday.
🤣
(anyone know how my response to weirdheadaches double posted?) 🤔
They're spying bro 🤣.
I was curious the same?....

😊👍
Geesh! My buddy just paid 1.98 :]. The expensive places by me are about 2.45.
So weird right?!? Who thinks it’s a good idea to eat right next to oil pumping? I guess if you’re going to eat poison might as well overlook the big fracking apparatus in the parking lot 🤷🏼♀️
Way to put out an article in middle of all our chaos. You rock on so many levels. Bet you forgot to read my tags today 😉
I’ll bet you the very first thing I said is:
Eh, it only took me about a month, right? I’m glad you made it safely, I’ll see you in a few days, enjoy your mom’s company.
iheartu all the time @puravidaville.
See you in a few, enjoy your boys! Love you @dandays xx
Congratulations @dandays!
You raised your level and are now a Dolphin!
