Current Events > Is Burger King one of the worst fast foods?

(+) Yeah! (+)

The fries taste like cardboard and flame-grilled patties have a weird taste. The chicken sandwiches are underwhelming.
---

Back when I fucked with fast food it always surprised me when people said Burgerking chicken was good.
---

It's my least favorite. Used to like it but then I lived right next to one for almost 3 years and can't stand the smell of it anymore.
---

I agree, never got how people like it.

---

Not one of.

It's the worst period.
---

Cant be, dont they have onion rings, think just having onion rings excludes you from being the worst
---

I used to go to the one on 86th St after work every so often because they had TVs with ESPN, but I didn't truly enjoy the food. That was 3-4 years ago. I've only eaten it maybe once or twice since.
---

The food is pretty bad but it's ok for the price. At least in my area, every other fast food place has gradually gotten more expensive but Burger King is still cheap af
---

Their crispy chicken sandwich was decent.

They have way better burgers than McDs

Disagree, though I will say that I dislike the fresh beef that McDonalds uses for many of their burgers. The Quarter Pounder tasted better before and the standard cheeseburger on the menu still uses the old beef and tastes better.
---

Im still flagellating myself for missing out on those hotdogs they had a few years back... pissing me off that I aint scored a McRib this year either
---

Nah, the Chicken Nugget burger is on point tbh
---

White Castle is the only fast food I can think of that is worse

Did McDs stop selling the McRib already?
---

It tastes fine but it's too expensive. Surprised people here saying BK is cheap, where i live a meal combo can easily cost you $10
---

The fries are terrible.
Whoppers and chicken whoppers are great.
---

Whopper is a classic and pretty good. Perhaps you got one of those plant based burgers by mistake.
---

It used to be great but it's really gone downhill lately
---

BK is just boring and tasteless, which is quite good compared to McD which is straight up garbage.
---

The only thing I remember as halfway decent was the french toast sticks.
---

Not the worst but still pretty shit.

Their "original" was terrible and they had a newer version years ago that was slightly better but not really good--I do think their current newest kind is actually good--not amazing and not something I will probably get beyond the time I decided to try it out once, but I was surprised considering their usual quality, lol.
---

It's one of my favorites, actually.
---

Burger King is actually in my top 5, but it can't beat Wendy's, Chick-Fil-A, or Arby's.

Very true. Especially if you upsize youre fries and drink.
---

The only fast food that's still "cheap" is McDonald's, and that's only if you get single cheeseburgers.

BK does have $1 tacos that aren't bad, but their burgers have been slowly creeping up in price over the past couple of years. In ~2008 they had double cheeseburgers (With two slices of cheese) for $1, and now their "double cheeseburgers" are $2 and only come with one slice of cheese.
---

The quality and consistency seems to vary from store to store.
---

No, they have the best burgers of any generic FF establishment
---

One of the worst? Obviously. You don't need to ask that.

Probably because I don't eat fast food a whole lot, but I think they're fine. Their food taste fine to me, especially that beyond whopper thing. Not my first choice for fast food, but enough to get my money's worth.
---

Their chicken is actually pretty good, but their burgers are bottom tier

I can't speak for the US but in Canada BK's combos are around the same cost as McDonald's or Wendy's and far cheaper than A&W. However what they do have is a 2 for $7 deal on Whoppers which is way cheaper than any other burger place's signature burger. Two Big Macs or Quarter Pounders or Dave's Singles is going to be nearly double that.

Their burgers are p good

Everything about Burger King is better than McDonald's - except their coffee.

Burger King fries give me a headache whenever I eat them

McDonald's fries are amazing when done well, I've often gotten just a large fries.
---

Yeah. Even their breakfast is pretty mediocre

Burger king has 10 nuggets for 1.50.

Fuck the haters. Plus I like the dollar rodeo burger.
---

The poor BKs are really bad, but I attest that if you happen to have one of the good ones near you its secretly some of the best fast food out there, you just gotta be lucky with the quality of your location

Seriously? Where do you live dude?

In California where I am a simple Whopper combo will easily cost you $9

I don't understand how anyone can eat anything and think "This is worse than Arby's"

their crispy chicken parm sandwiches are amazing.. when they bother to have them available
---

Onion rings are legit good. 10 nuggets for $1.49 is good value as well. I'll never go for any reason other than it's the easiest place to get to on the way to or from something, but it's fine.

They change the recipe a bit I think. The ones they had this year (or last year?) were worse than the ones a few years ago.

Arbys fries are good and their drinks dont have that weird distinctive flavor and lack of carbonation that BKs do.

Oregon near Portland. I pretty much never get stuff that isnt on the value menu. And the 1.50 for 10 nuggets was a big commercial thing that is still going on, I think they so it everywhere. I'm in north dakota with my mom right now and they do it here. But they dont have the dollar rodeo burger though. It isnt the full size rodeo burger, just a small patty burger with bbq sauce and 2 onion rings.

Tbh arby's is the best fast food place. People just hate on it because it is popular to make fun of. Seinfeld explained it in one of the comedians in cars getting coffee episodes. There really isnt anything wrong with Arbys they just have a name that has good rhythm for jokes. It sounds kinda funny, ends with a long e sound and is two syllables. You can make fun of hardee's and it has the same effect.

I really don't see why people would honestly hate on it besides it being a funny target. They have super dank ass mozzarella sticks. Super dank ass chicken strips. Super dank ass curly fries. And I love the toast beef, but i get that it isnt for everyone. I pretty much just always get mozzarella sticks if i go there, or maybe a roast beef sandwich. But the one time i got the pork belly sandwich a couple years ago it was really tasty. Or maybe it was the brisket. I think actually it was the one that had all 3 of the special meat sandwich things of the time on it. Brisket pork belly and some other meat.

But those side dishes are the real reason. Curly fries>> normal fries. And they have the best mozzarella sticks, way better than sonic or burger Kings.
