Don't like it, don't go there. Tell them why.

Personally I'm boycotting them. Not because of any moral justification, but because they sell overpriced disappointing mulch.

Literally worst fast food joint and the only people I've met who claim otherwise have objectively bad taste.

Like no joke, objectively, "I love a butter and cheese sandwich on wonderbread", British, wouldn't know flavor if it ripped their tongue out.

I have to make my own burgers now. Most places serve fast food swill, and the only nice place has switched to brioche buns.

Brioche buns are not load bearing buns! They fall apart at the slightest contact with moisture. I will die on this hill forever.

I dunno man, the brioche buns i make hold up well. To each their own i guess

[–] EnderMB 5 points 1 year ago

Surely most untoasted buns will fall apart if dealing with anything outside of a basic burger?

If you use a small, cheap bun, you can't expect toppings to not break it apart.

Dying on a hill forever sounds really painful. Ouch.

[–] Espi 2 points 1 year ago

As opposed to dying in a valley forever, totally painless.

I'm curious about dying on a hill temporarily though.

You rank BK as worse than McDonald's? I only ask cause I've worked at both, and I would put McDonald's just the tiniest bit lower than BK. Wendy's is barely better than both BK and McDonald's.

McDonalds has good fries and the McFlurry. Bk has zero redemption.

Back when i used to have fast food, I liked BK over McD because i preferred their fries and i liked their jalapeño poppers.

[–] Stabbitha 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Here he is boys, the psychopath who prefers BK fries

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

McD fries are too soft and when they get cold they are absolute garbage. They almost seem soggy, without getting wet. BK have a crunch to them. At least this is the case in the UK.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Not going to say they're good, but it is wild as fuck how much of a difference franchises can make. There are several BKs in my city, but a select few are owned by a different franchise than the majority of the others. Their food is WAY better, consistently, than the others, and it's usually a lot fresher tasting.

[–] AngryCommieKender 1 points 1 year ago

True that. Forgot about the Mcflurry. Probably cause the machine was down

I sent my sister a bottle of fry sauce that she's been trying to find for years (she never thought to check Amazon lol), this is what she sends me back. Told her she was supposed to use it to enhance good food, not make terrible food tolerable. not Mmmm

And yet they invented the sticky toffee pudding. Two extremes
