One day several years ago I did not eat breakfast because I had to fat for a blood test. After leaking the blood I went to the office at about 0800 and walked over to a nearby McDonald's to get something to eat. I was pretty hungry and planned to have some pancakes, but was distressed to see that was not on the menu.
Later I found out that they still served pancakes but you had to ask for them. So the archtype of fast food has now taken on the trappings of snooty French restaurant, "Don't order off the menu. Ask to speak to the chef personally."
