[QUOTE=Grabigel;31854033]Burger King is better than McDonalds or Wendys, I don't get how they are struggling.[/QUOTE] I found most of the non-food related things in Burger King to be, well, horrible. In all the burger kings I've been to in the past year, all of them use tiny amounts of the syrup stuff in the soda machine, so it tastes extremely watered down, you have to ask to get anything (napkins, ketchup, etc) since they stopped putting them out for the customers to get themselves, and it's always had fairly long waits even if it's the afternoon and nobody else is being served. But they have by far the best burgers of all the fast food places besides Wendy's, but going to Wendy's costs more than twice as much. :v: Also, the chicken fries are amazing. [QUOTE=Chicken_Chaser;31857557]I sware if all fast food places go WE MUST BE HEALTHY NO MORE CALORIES I will be [i]pissed[/i]. Although having both options would be good. [/QUOTE] They'd go a long way to being more healthy if they stopped pumping all sorts of random shit into the hamburger patties and chicken, even if it's delicious.
[QUOTE=RichyZ;31854076]nope burger king and mcdonalds are the only burger places here (five guys, in n out, fuddruckers, wendys, sonic, jack n a box, etc) though they aren't very small, but tend to be better[/QUOTE] You forgot Huddle House and Novrosky's but those are more regional than anything else. Also, there was this banging burger place in my home town I went to all the time that made some awesome burgers.
lol what about whataburger does it even exist to people
Do all BKs sell veggie burgers? I don't see them on the menu so I never ask.
[QUOTE=Atlascore;31873365]This got 7 agrees. What the fuck people, did healthy food rape your sister or something?[/QUOTE] Some people like unhealthy food sometimes? Carrot sticks and tasteless sodas are fine and all, but I don't want that to be my whole diet. I'm fine with them adding healthy food options, but taking away the unhealthy ones is just stupid.
lol go healthy
Being an employee of Burger King, I hope corporate doesn't do something stupid like creating "buy 1 chicken sandwich get 4 more free" or adding things to the menu that doesn't sell and just makes things more complicated. [QUOTE=Chicken_Chaser;31873426]Do all BKs sell veggie burgers? I don't see them on the menu so I never ask.[/QUOTE] Yes, they do. The patty is made of an unknown substance thrown in the microwave, then put in a bun with mayo, lettuce, tomatos, onions, and ketchup.
Goodbye King, you will be missed. [img]http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTa5onWtHqd-cTzZGfvg15fzBgGLue1pO0-Ob3RE73qi11UTtsc[/img]
[QUOTE=woolio1;31855223] For everything else, I eat at A&W. Delicious, freshly cooked burgers and delicious supercooled root beer. I love A&W...[/QUOTE] Hate to say it, but I remember reading that the A&W restaurants may be going out of business from lack of revenue.

It's like Assassin's Creed if instead of killing people you scared the shit out of them and gave them food. Best $3 I ever spent.

[QUOTE=Wii60;31855582]i own all 3 games best 9$ i ever spent on blatant advertising[/QUOTE] I'm going to kill myself over the nostalgia. Good-bye sweet prince.
[QUOTE=Rageblood;31873472] Yes, they do. The patty is made of an unknown substance thrown in the microwave, then put in a bun with mayo, lettuce, tomatos, onions, and ketchup.[/QUOTE] Veggie burger... with mayo? wat
[QUOTE=Cyan_Husky;31875761]Veggie burger... with mayo? wat[/QUOTE] Mayo is vegetarian. Not vegan though.
I don't know about you people, but a fast food chain going all-vegan is a giant l Keap toward people eating healthier. Burger King might as well be the next Saladworks.
[QUOTE=Rageblood;31873472] Yes, they do. The patty is made of an unknown substance thrown in the microwave, then put in a bun with mayo, lettuce, tomatos, onions, and ketchup.[/QUOTE] At the Burger King I work at we cook our veggie burgers fresh when somebody orders them because we sell almost none. They smell like fucking shit.
[QUOTE=PJAMA;31880715]I don't know about you people, but a fast food chain going all-vegan is a giant l Keap toward people eating healthier. Burger King might as well be the next Saladworks.[/QUOTE] It is an utterly moronic idea, they will end up collapsing and a good burger store will be gone.
BK's are pretty rare up north in the UK, you only really find them on M6 services which sucks. They have a good thing, best fries, and when you ask for something they give it it's like the guys serving just know that adding all that extra bacon is the whole point the bacon to burger ratio has to be 1:1 just 2 strips doesn't cut it. When I do go fast food, I want it to be an abomination. I can work it off later, make the slogan "Eat shit, run like fuck" I also can't eat guacamole because of that bit in Austin powers.
Hopefully won't hit us in England. It's the better of the two major burger franchises here. God, I wish In-N-Out burger made its way over here.
[QUOTE=Sobotnik;31881176]It is an utterly moronic idea, they will end up collapsing and a good burger store will be gone.[/QUOTE] Well, they seem to be going in that direction. It's their franchise, not ours or mine.
I don't care about who's running it, but Im pissed that they are caving into healthy eating pressure from health "experts". Ive said it a thousand times, [b][i]You don't go to a fucking fast food resturant to get healthy food.[/b][/i] If I wanted healthy food I would go to- Oh, looks like nowhere sells only healthy food, because you wouldn't make any money from one.
Five Guys Burgers and Fries. I love that place.
[QUOTE=Sanius;31854402]Guacamole is good but the shit they squeeze on fast food is trash.[/QUOTE] It would seem, based purely on experience with restaurants, that proper guacamole is universally more expensive than even mid-range restaurants are willing to spend. Best case scenario is that they give you a small amount. Often, particularly with mexican restaurants, they put a layer of it over a bunch of lettuce to make it seem like you have more. It is bullshit.
[QUOTE=deathmog;31886139]Five Guys Burgers and Fries. I love that place.[/QUOTE] It's always great to get Five Guys in your mouth. Oh, we were talking about the restaurant chain, weren't we? Great place, I wish I could go there more often. Another great fast-food chain is Chipotle. Best burritos this side of... Earth. Seriously, I don't think there's anywhere else you can get a burrito that isn't a shitty refried-bean-filled microwavable one. Unless you were in Mexico.

[editline]22nd August 2011[/editline] In Philadelphia, we have a chain called Nifty Fifty's. Great burgers, and tons of other shit too. Massive soda fountain. If you're in the area, check it out.
