sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 12/27/2020 06:14 am Saw the news article on TV. I was in Pompeii about 3 years ago; they were still excavating this area at the time. I was also there way back in 1970, and the amount of extra building features and overall area from 1970 to 2017 is almost double. Report this Post to the Staff
echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 12/27/2020 10:00 am Amazing how well preserved it is. I wonder if they served Door Mouse burgers and Worm fries? Report this Post to the Staff
Novicius Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 1168 Posts	Posted 12/27/2020 10:10 am What a find, and so well preserved. Fast food back in the day, who would have thought? Do you want fries with that? Report this Post to the Staff
travelcoin Pillar of the Community United States 1120 Posts	Posted 12/27/2020 10:15 am Thanks for sharing, great news. I was there a few times, I was lucking to go in 1983 where everything wasn't blocked off and you were able to move about the ruins freely. Wonder what they will say about McDonalds and Burger King 2000 years from now Report this Post to the Staff
Paul Bulgerin Pillar of the Community United States 3098 Posts	Posted 12/27/2020 11:55 am I saw this today on another site as well. I visited Pompeii in June 2018. It was my #1 "Bucket List" place to visit. Amazing colors on the paintings. I wonder if any coins were found in the shop? Paul Bulgerin Report this Post to the Staff

FVRIVS RVFVS Pillar of the Community United States 3434 Posts	Posted 12/28/2020 12:10 pm I wouldn't go so far as to classify any of it as having been "fast food" Anyone reasonably familiar with the common cuisine of these regions knows that there is hardly such a thing as overcooked ! As my immigrant father used to say ( much to my puzzlement ! ) "When it's smoking it's still cooking" When you start to see the flames ...... It's done ! Report this Post to the Staff
