Is it a chemically/almost tinglingly after taste? I have found that with so many fast food places, McDonald's fries and nuggets have it the strongest. I chalked it up to either very dirty oil (save money by changing it more infrequently) or some sort additive to the oil these massive operations produce that I am sensitive to.

Google has WAY more than 2 weeks worth of logs. When I was there having 90 days of live logs was the norm with very few exceptions. Anything older wasn't "live" but pretty easily accessible if you can get the resources approved.
