Wendy's tastes the most like real beef to me. Burger King has that weird fake smokey taste. McD's tastes like, well, McD's. Depends on what I'm in the mood for.

I wouldn't be able to articulate the differences if you put a gun to my head.

How do you go to these places often enough to know?

>I wouldn't be able to articulate the differences if you put a gun to my head.

But you can taste the difference between, say, two different brands of organic noodles? Sounds like you're being disingenuous, detecting differences in taste only when you feel like it.

They got them trans fats in thur.

It depends on the noodles and the brands, for the most part with ordinary durum dry pasta it comes down to texture rather than flavor, which I would guess is a product of shape affecting the process of absorbing the cooking water. I don't generally look for pasta that has the word "organic" on it, but not because I'm poor and I hate nice things like you. On the contrary, "organic" isn't good enough for me, because I know it has been defined by big agribusiness and if I was interested in the characteristics that "organic" purports to deal with, I'd use other criteria.

But yes, to answer your question broadly, my nice food is better than your $1 cheeseburgers.

And of course I could tell you the differences between your junk food if I ate there as often as you. The whole point was that I eat stuff like that a couple of times a year. How am I going to remember whether some shitty fast food had a "faint smokey taste", the most I'm going to remember is what unusual circumstances brought about a need to eat a terrible burger from a cheap fast food joint.

you sound like a lot of fun to hang around.

op i like wendy's the most but mcdicks double cheeseburgers are my guilty pleasure om nom nom

Maybe..... could it be......Angie is back?
I hope I'm not being laughable.

>What used to be a full meal back in the 1960's but is now just an appetizer before the really big burger that amerilards cram down their gasping throats.

That was an unnecessary shot. And it was before you even got to the point of your thread. Learn to write.

>>5369918

Actually I am, food is a big deal to me and when it's my turn to pick the restaurant everyone usually has a pretty good time.

I'm not sure where "fun" and "Wendy's cheeseburger" intersect, though.

>>5369925

No, I've been here since well before angie. She was hilarious though.

The McDouble still reigns supreme to me. Even if they unjustly raised the average price of one by .30 cents.

McDonalds for the McDouble/Double Cheeseburger and their dollar spicy chicken sandwich.

Carls is the king of fast food burgers McD's only trump card is it's $1 Soft serves and according to some it's french fries

which is a bold face lies because KFC rules the fries market

>>5369863
>Cheese Product Burger

This needs to be cleared up for good.

I can't even have a fast food burger anymore, Wendys is as close to them as I get.

>>5369863
McDouble bitch.

Shit is great as a meal by itself.

>>5370900
Then you are still having fast food burgers, considering Wendys is fast food.

>>5370917

Yeah, like once every 3-4 months.

>>5370917
Wendys may be fast and it's food but it's not fast food. Their beef is ACTUALLY 100% beef, unlike McDicks and BK and everywhere else. It's the only place that has decent tomato and pickles and lettuce, even if it is iceberg lettuce. Wendys bacon actually looks and tastes like bacon, too. That's why I always get the junior bacon cheeseburger, because anywhere else and the bacon is just gross.

I haven't had a burger in over three years. Sometimes I could go for one but then I'd feel bad for breaking my streak.

I enjoy the Harvey's burger the most

>>5370942
Pity you are not Canadian and don't get to enjoy based Harvey's. Where everything is fresh and shits assembled in front of you to your specifications. The beef is beef, the bacon is bacon, the vegetables are fresh cut.

does white castle count,

small, relatively cheap and greasy

>>5370942
How much did you get paid for that post?

>>5370595
He is wrong. I was surprised nobody contradicted this. Are you just judging by the pictures from advertisements? They where as off as now. I was born in 58. The food HAS shrunk, not in calories, but in quality also. Taco bell burritos are less than 1/2 the size they where in the 70s and 80s the tacos about 2/3 the size and the rest of the menu everywhere else has followed suit while becoming a different more processed type of calorie. The serving sizes back then where actually more generous, everywhere, but the food was healthier and less calorie dense and people lived differently, ate far less junk and where busier physically.

Im curious, where do you judge this from? Many people have alot of off judgements about the past, or they judge to narrow, it really wasnt that much different than it is now.

Alot of change comes from racial intergration. And political correctness from that. It really wasnt too different.

>100% beef™

>assembled in front of you
this means nothing; fucking idiot

Wendy's puts the absolute worst lettuce on their burgers.
I don't even get the McDonald's concoction of onions-ketchup-pickles.
I'd have to go with Burger King.

>>5371707

well the only unusual thing about mcd's is the shredded rehydrated onions that they use. it mixes with the ketchup and really forms its own condiment. the pickles are just pickles.

I'd take mcd's over the other two because it doesn't try to pretend it's something more. it's like a taco bell taco, it's its own delicious trashy thing.

if you look at wendy's jr cheeseburger deluxe it has real tomato and lettuce sure but they're SHIT quality. why even bother at that point. just go full trash.

>>5371714

True. McDonalds' McDouble and Tacobell's tacos are garbage, but they are such a special kind of garbage to where they are rightfully inhabit a legitimate place in the meal kingdom. Sort of like Yoohoo chocolate drink: "I don't know what the fuck this disgusting shit is, but I will certainly drink an entire bottle within a couple of minutes and feel simultaneously shitty and amazing about the fact."

>>5369863
A&W's buddy burger. grilled onions although you get a ton on a mama burger for like $2

>>5369904

>>5369863
McDouble!

>>5371082
not sure their patties are actually all beef

>>5371795
I always think of Durian Rider and Freelee when I see that

No they did not used to be a full meal... Why lie?

>>5369918
I don't know about you; but I would want to hang out with someone who seems to have opinions and

>taste

>>5372214
this....a single hamburger is not a full meal even when i was a kid. who the fuck ever got a kids meal without fries and a drink?

Probably a Whataburger Jr., or just a Whataburger. Not sure what OP is asking exactly.

>not mentioning KFC snack burger
>missing out this hard

>>5372672
well there are the baconator, and mcd's angus burgers (now the new QPs) and the whopper variants, but underneath all those are the basic small burgers. for mcd's it's what they built their empire on, but today they're largely forgotten.

so of that tier of burger, which from the chains would you pick?

Holy shit, a pedophile on 4chan.
