Considering the fact that someone else has made a Burger King thread a decade ago.
I though why not make a thread for McDonalds' biggest direct rival?
I have also been seeing on social media that Burger King has been going through a sort of "redemption" of sorts.
I remember when it was kinda cool to hate on Burger King and people referred it as "the poor man's McDonalds.
But lately I have been seeing that people have been kinda switching up on it saying it as overhated
So far I have tried the Texas Double Whopper and their chicken fries and I liked em.
My first job was BK. I started at 14 and worked there until I was 21. I was store manager for the store I started at for a year. The whopper is the only fast food burger worth a damn. They need to bring back the big king, though. Back in 99 they had this sandwich called the double Xtreme. Holy cow was the sauce amazing. The cooler always smelled like ass because there were was a girl who opened and a girl who closed who fucked literally everyone. The closer girl was so forceful. I would say that a legitimate claim could be made for sexual assault on her.
As someone who only eats fast food when drunk or hungover, burger king is the best reheated ultra processed delivered to door food on the market at the moment. Everything on the BK menu is an objectively better analogue to whatever McD is dragging around on their menu, FACT.
The fries, the nuggets and drinks are all fine, whatever. the BK sauces are hit and miss but never as bad as whatever the fuck was in that McD kpop dipping sauce. (the onion rings suck tho)
And the burgers, the burgers are still put together by dull teenagers so most of the time is a mess but after a night out, they hit almost as good as a kebab.

BK is one of the better goyslop stops, but the only problem is they put way too much mustard on their burgs and it ruins it. Every time I ask for no mustard and they put it on anyways. I don't even hate mustard, I just don't want to drown in it when I go to take a bite. I think there's some sort of rule in the kitchens where if they don't use mustard their fucking heads explode or something.
They went through the rebrand years ago, but the most recent thing that's been noticed is that they ditched the "wrapped burger philosophy with shitty buns".
They put it in a nice box and half sleeve, and imo, changed the meat to something a bit more fatty that retains more burger juice. The old whopper had the tendency to be dry.
The fries have always been on the thicker side, but they used to be insane thick and damn near wedges in the past. I think they hit a good balance now.
The OG chicken sandwich is a shitty guilty pleasure that's definitely revolting to most people unless you really want it at the time, and insanely cost-efficient in certain deals.
During COVID and before, they had prob the greatest deals with the trio and duo deals they ran at the time (you could get like 3 whoppers for 6 or so dollars).
When they rolled out those nuggets around early 2020s I think, you could get like 40 for ~6$.
They always been cheap in some ways and ass fuck you in others. It ebbs and flows.
The only thing they could really improve on is their special items (the special food promos tend to blow a bit), and their rewards system (pretty much the worst one I've seen).
I have a soft spot of BK because I enjoyed the whopper quite a lot, and my childhood one felt like it had the coke-a-cola freestyle machine incredibly early.
I’m surprised there wasn’t a BK thread anyway. I had their breakfast sandwiches with their hash browns and a cup of cold coffee. Way too salty to enjoy and the vanilla flavor tasted strange.
I'm still angry they got rid of there 2000s logo and switched to a worse version of their old logo.
Guess it honest, bland, boring, lifeless, living in the past and TO MUCH FUCKING BUN!
Chicken fries are dope tho.

I dunno i like the new logo, it's more clearly a burger than the 2000s logo which I always assumed was some kind of abstract aesthetic logo like Pepsi's when I was a kid. Honestly it looks more like a burger than the OG logo as well. It's like the one logo change I don't hate
