Who makes the best and the worst fast food burgers?

5 Guys doesnt count as fast food. Places with a drive thru.

Aug 25, 2020, 12:27 PM [ in reply to Re: Who makes the best and the worst fast food burgers? ]

better than their thick burgers or what have you.

Since Pete's on Poinsette has a drive through, they win with the chili cheese burger.

I'll then go with:

Cook-Out, the big double. Taste is good, value is great.
Wendy's
Hardee's regular
McDonald's quarter pounder
Burger King.

Sonic isn't really on my burger Radar because if I do go there I'm getting the chili cheese coney or popcorn chicken.

Aug 25, 2020, 3:06 PM

a co-worker wanted to go there for lunch on his last day, before moving to TN (hmmm....wait a minute), and it was a large group of us, but I think it was pretty empty otherwise

soooo underwhelmed....not enough to NOT give it another try one day, though.


oddly enough, since TickleIt mentioned Oreo somethingerothers to me in this thread:

our side of the table was having our own convo...one of the higher-up architects, another guy, and me...the other guy is telling a random, and completely innocent innocuous story that involved an Oreo (to some extent, don't remember if it was the actual cookie, some other treat, or just something (non seggsual) that was black-white-black in color...not important)...but as soon as he said it, he started awkwardly apologizing / explaining to the 'higher-up' (who was black - still is, i presume) that that wasn't a racial reference in any way.

The blarchitect (just made that up) was like "uh...yeah, i didn't think it was"

but he just kept going on about apologizing...and guy was like "yep, I understood what you were saying in the first place...describing colors is totally fine. Just continue your story."

but nope. kept at it. Made a completely mundane story into a pretty awkward situation.


Maybe that's why I don't have a fond mammary of the place
