Smokey Cheddar burger

[Spiffy McMoron]

So a certain royal burger chain has this limited time smokey cheddar burger.

In a word: don't.

I couldn't even finish the one I got it was so bad. Way too much sauce, WAY too much cheese......

I seriously think I'm gonna puke.......

On another board I'm on, every once in a while a particular member will eat some fast-food slop and review it on the "[member name] Shit Food Review". They're hilarious--I was tempted to do something like that here, but didn't want to offend anyone here that worked at those restaurants. Some of the food he's tried:

1) KFC's Double-Down
2) BK's Angry Whopper
3) Panda Express Combo's
4) Jack-in-the-Box BBQ Sirloin Burger
5) KFC's Famous Bowls

We have a Five Guys opening nearby. Soon as it's open, I do intend to give it a try, given the good things I've heard.

okay guys, please dont hate me....

I work part time for BK....and it SUCKS...

any of the Steakhouse burgers are only possibly(and I say possibly) edible only when they first come out of the broiler...but they take up to 5 min to cook.

I have seen burgers sit in the warmer for up to 4-5 hours after which BK meat gets a really "funky" odor...

I LOVE Burger King, but I don't ever get any of the specialty burgers. I always get the standard double cheeseburger, which is one of the best deals in the industry right now!

But even BK can't begin to compare to the awesomeness that is Five Guys! There's a REASON they've been named the Best Burgers in D.C. for over a decade! There's a reason they're ZAGAT RATED!

And lastly, this demotivational poster I made awhile back sums it up quite nicely, I think...

OK, time now to reply to some comments that greatly disturbed me...

I had to try it once...not too horrible except for the grease, sauce (wtf is that stuff anyhoo?), plastic cheese and typically overcooked burger...so pretty much the bacon was the only redeeming feature but was ruined by the rest .

The last time I went to Burger King, I requested a burger with NO mayo and received one slathered in the stuff.

Both of you have discovered lousy franchisees, that's all. Try another location. Seriously.

Here in MD, where I live, there's one, and only one, location that I won't go to, because the franchisee that runs it is a cheapskate. Back when the Double Cheeseburger for a Buck promotion started several months ago, when it was the regular double cheeseburger with 2 slices of cheese for only $1, this particular location cut corners by taking one slice of cheese and tearing it in half, then putting just ½ a slice on each patty. On top of that, the burger was lukewarm. I don't go to that one anymore. But all the rest in my area are just fine!

For instance, I've never had an overcooked burger from a BK here... that only happens at "real" restaurants, when I order the burger medium, and the fuckwit working the grill cooks it either medium well or well done.

As for this "plastic cheese"... don't know what your franchisee's using there, and I don't think I WANT to know.

And you obviously WORK for a lousy franchisee. Sounds like they need to be inspected by the health department. Please tell us all what town and state that BK is in, so we can all avoid it!

Dunno what the cheese was (now I do like the BK double cheeseburgers which are consistently good regardless of the restaurant I go to), but the texture was different from the usual American cheese used, and also different from any real cheddar I've ever had on burgers. Hard to describe, but vaguely unpleasant. Like "processed cheddar cheese food" in square form.

That particular BK does tend to drop the ball; I have been to better ones.

Atkins Mocha Latte shake up the nose. OW. Not as OWSHIT as a soda, but OW nonetheless.
