    I go to Burger King on whopper Wednesday and get a burger, drink and some fries for <$10 CAD. On other days, this same meal is around $14.

    Where the hell are you buying burgers?

    This smacks of elitists who turn their nose up over joints like Burger King and only go to a fancy restaurant for a fucking hamburger. Then complain about how expensive it is.

    Very “hello fellow working class” kinda vibes to this.

          Nah burger king is garbage unless you only want the calories. Fake broil ass taste is worse than any other burger option. Id sooner eat the cheapest microwave ready hamburgers.

      Yup. I grab the $5 specials, little bit of everything, nugs, burger, fries and drink. Most places offer some variation and it’s small enough to not destroy your guts to finish the day after lunch.

      Idk about CA, but the burgers at BK, McD, Popeye’s fucking stink in India. Stale bread, a smudge of mustard, browning lettuce, limp patties etc. Granted, it costs ~150-200 INR (2.5 USD).

      But there are muuuch better places that have juicy ingredients AND serve with fries on the side. Those cost around 300 bucks (3-3.5 USD)

      Anyone buying burgers at BK just seems pound foolish out here.

        Burger King is very inconsistent. Some locations are good, some are kinda bad. General rule, if it’s got some kind of play area for the kids, the burger’s are going to suck. The kids make their parents take them there, so they don’t have to care about making a decent burger. But if it’s a location on a city street and there’s a high volume, they tend to be better. But when you have a decent one nearby, it’s a decent burger.
