New Burger King burger vs. new Wendy's

Re: New Burger King burger vs. new Wendy's

I rarely eat the burgers from either place, so I can't comment on those. I will just say that Wendy's new "sea salt" fries suck. The old fries were so much better. As bad as they are, they're still better than BK's fries. BK has the worst fast food fries of anyone.
 
When I'm at Wendy's, I usually get the spicy chicken.
Yeah, that's usually my go to meal when I'm running late to work and there's nothing at the house for lunch. I do occasionally get it with bacon, but I've found that it's just a bit too heavy to eat right before work for me. I do think Wendy's does blow any other place out of the water with there salads. And I do like the new fries, just wish the fry lackey wouldn't oversalt em so much. A little dash will do ya.
 
Re: New Burger King burger vs. new Wendy's

I like Wendy's old burgers, they're #2 on my fast food list for what's in town; so if they're the same as before that's fine by me. #1 is Culver's.

But Culvers' fries are bullcrap. Gotta look big picture here. :)
 
Re: New Burger King burger vs. new Wendy's

I love those new sea salt fries at Wendy's.

+1!

You've had burgers that weren't better than a fast food joint?

Me too. SuperAmerica. It was poor. Cheap, tho'.

I ate at Smash Burger when I was in Plymouth, MN this weekend. It was mighty tasty.

Me and the kids just ate at the Smash Burger in Roseville. Big hit; well worth the price upgrade from the usual chains. I had the Windy City, because it came on a soft pretzel bun, which is about the best idea in history. The burger itself was good, but I thought the kids' regular Smash Burgers were better. The haystack onion rings were great, too.

The McRib is coming back, and will be putting all other fastfood to shame until November 14th. Best news I've heard regarding food since, well, last fall when the McRib came back for a bit.
 
Re: New Burger King burger vs. new Wendy's

I'll take Wendy's fries, only because they come with the option of dipping them in a Frosty. Mmmmmm... :)

I dont eat fast food anymore...but **** that makes me want to! Best. Combo. EVER!

With all the places in the Twin cities to eat a good burger people actually CHOOSE to go to Smashburger? Huh...wonders never cease :p

No kidding. Smashburger is TEWWIBLE!!!!!!
 
Re: New Burger King burger vs. new Wendy's

Not everything else. They have the best coke mixture on the planet. Don't ask me why, but McDonald's coke is 10x better than anyone else's.

I'll second this. I've been drinking way too much soda this summer after trying to eliminate, or at least minimize it, in my diet, and with the $1 any size deal at McD's, I've been getting a lot of Cokes there, and it tastes better than even the bottled stuff.
 
Re: New Burger King burger vs. new Wendy's

Ever since I saw this I can't really think of Wendy's the same way.

You know what?

I have never eaten a McRib. Ever.

Am I missing anything?

No. They are awful. All I can think of when I see those things is the Simpsons episode with the Krusty Rib-wich. Where they pour the molten liquid into the rib molds...and then later when Krusty says the animal they use to make it extinct...."Cow? Pig? Chicken?" to which he responds "Think smaller...and more legs"

About 3000 empty calories and several trips to the bathroom.

Someone once joked that the McRib is whatever was left over at the end of a day at MickeyD's, molded into shape and covered with whatever they have to simulate barbecue sauce. At least, I think they were joking...

Hey, I had to take children to that Lands End outlet in Har Mar for winter coats and snow boots. We weren't driving anywhere else for dinner after that. :mad::p
 
Re: New Burger King burger vs. new Wendy's

Whats the problem with Smashburger? For a place that is semi-fast food, I think they're burgers are **** good. Maybe not as good as you can get at some of the local bars/sit down restaurants, but it isn't the same kind of place, I wouldn't expect it to be as good as a good bar burger. When compared to other fast food type restaurants it is pretty easily near the top.
