Fast Food Burger Shootout

and then she watched you walk over to the drink dispenser and fill your cup.

And made the motion for the cook to hock a loogie in your food.

Women usually do watch me fill my cups, but not this time. I kept my eye on her, and I was in the clear.

I'll take In N Out with a loogie or two.

A Double-Double is comparable in size to a Big Mac. I mean if you want girth alone then Carls Jr. Superstar is pretty huge.

In & Out's animal style burger is a go-to fast food item for me. Hardly ever a time I will not want it if someone else suggests it for dinner.

Anyone tried a "The W" yet

I just housed one in like a minute. It was pretty tasty, not bad for $3. I must have been starving though, because I destroyed that and a 5 piece spicy nugget and I'm still hungry.

 

[MFer]

Yeah, I had one awhile back. It was good enough, though I'm not sure what's the point of having it on the menu.

Anyone have any thoughts or have ever tried the unofficial "Mc1035" (which I just found out about, and I guess in Canada we'd call it a Mc1105)? It's combining an end of breakfast Egg McMuffin with a McDouble.

On that note, why is the ham called "Canadian Bacon" in the US? It's clearly a round piece of ham. Pemeal bacon is a whole different and delicious product.

So if you wanted one fresh you'd have to go right when breakfast was ending or starting. Sounds intriguing though. I've done the McGangBang.

It is like that everywhere in the US. For some reason Americans use the term interchangeably to refer to both back bacon and a sliced piece of smoked ham. This is especially annoying to me since I love the former and am not big fan of the latter.

 

[Agent of Oblivion]

I have no idea how that got started. Probably some WWII or Cold War terminology

 

[Star Ocean 2]

Wendy's really stepped it up with their breakfast. They still don't have breakfast in very many locations, which is too bad, because it's by far the best out of all fast food. Better quality bread and eggs, and the selection is impressive. I still have to try the roasted burrito, egg burger, and honey chicken biscuit.

New Five Guys in Amherst, NY at the Walden Galleria. Sounds like we're headed there tomorrow. I've always loved Lick's burgers, which I assume are pretty similar. Still, there's kind of a lore surrounding Five Guys and In and Out.

 

[Red Baron]

There's a Five Guys opening up ten minutes from where I live and on the way to my girlfriend work.

Been sold down here for a while and probably my favourite fast food burger.

"Mighty Angus", which consists of Angus beef, processed cheese, McChicken Sauce, onion relish, red onion and bacon."

At least they already had a wheelchair there.

Haven't tried the Mighty yet, but the Grand Angus is seriously delicious. I dunno why I haven't, I'm generally compelled to try every new fast food burger.

I've only heard of half of these and only been to three (of those three, I've only been to In-N-Out once). Any of these other ones around your way?

 

[Jaxxxson Mayhem]

Only been to Five Guys but have heard of Culvers and In N Out.

 

[Baby Shoes]

I have all but two near me (Counter and Farmer are the two I'm not familiar with.

Habit just opened up recently, was pretty good. I liked that they had in the little area for condiments a small pepper bar featuring some of the best pepperoncini I've ever had.

 

[Incandenza]

Question for anyone who has ordered jalapenos on their burger at Five Guys: do they always serve them cold? Mine tasted as if they just came out of a long stay in a refrigerator. Very disappointing.

 

[devo]

Smashburger is okay. Its burgers remind me of Fuddrucker's.

 

[treble]

I think the best burger I've ever had was at The Counter when I was in Chicago last year.

Speaking of Chicago, I love the burgers at Heroes West in Joliet.

Man says he's had enough; kills himself at Jacksonville McDonald's

“He was just sitting there and said, ‘I’m just tired of this crap,’ ” and shot himself, Bill Richardson said.

 

[Byron The Bulb]

Premise for an unwritten David Foster Wallace story.

 

[Agent of Oblivion]

I'm lovin' it!

 

[treble]

The crap he was tired of was someone else buying all the McDoubles.

 

[Precious Roy]

I wish I had a Carl's Jr. near me because that Memphis BBQ burger looks incredible.

Someone here must eat one and describe the experience for us

 

[Smues]

I hadn't heard of that so I had to Google it. Holy shit that looks good, and there's a Carl's Jr. not far from my office. Damnit I'm trying to eat better!
