I thought of writing about a discussion we had in class today that led to one student sharing ideas for how to fake a drug test that I had never heard of before. But I decided that wasn't the direction I wanted to take my post. TMI.
I thought of writing about meeting someone who turned out to be my sister-in-law's sister-in-law (she recognized my name). But other than writing that she was very nice and it was fun to meet her, there wasn't much else to tell.
I thought of writing about visiting my 80-something neighbor in rehab and watching her do some serious leg presses with her new knee. But not much else to say other than we had a pleasant visit and I think she's awesome.
I thought of writing about the nerf gun Jack bought with some of his Christmas money and how I never knew they made nerf guns that use batteries. But really all I can say is that it's a pretty intense nerf gun.
At the end of the day, I decided to write about my first ever visit to Five Guys Burgers and Fries (I know!). Extra friendly service: check. Tasty burgers: check (even Jack gushed, which is very unusual). Peanuts in their shells to snack on while you wait for your order: check. Free soda refills: check. Fry sauce: check (A Utah specialty. Do they have it at Five Guys in other states?). Stacks of bags full of Idaho potatoes everywhere: check. The freshest tasting french fries ever: check.
A new go-to place for our whole family: check.

Five Guys is the greatest burger place ever, but to answer your question, to my dismay I recently found out that Five Guys in other states (at least on the east coast) do not have fry sauce.
That's a full day!
Good to know about Five Guys. We'll have to check it out. I'm always up for a good fry.
Argentina has something very similar to fry sauce called Salsa golf: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salsa_golf
It would appear that Utah and Argentina are the only ones though! Dare I start a debate on who invented it first?

Looks like Utah had a thousand island dressing fry sauce predecessor in 1900, but didn't invent actual fry sauce until 1948, whereas an Argentine Nobel laureate came up with it in the 1920s. Hmm...
I was secretly hoping the 80-year old in rehab was a juicier story (think Lindsay Lohan).
