    mate i think you’re remembering a different reality because BK sucks hard and has since the 80’s

      No way. BK was solid in the 90’s.

      I can’t think of a single chain that was shit at the time. Peak fast food.

      Their fries were good as fuck until they ruined them.

        While I prefer the flavor of the burgers from BK, I always end up waiting for my order far longer than McDonald’s, then the combo of ingredients isn’t even warm enough to melt the cheese on the burger (no, I didn’t customize it into an abomination, just asked for no mustard.) So while I’d almost prefer it, I don’t go to BK except for once or twice a year. Even then, it seems like they’re constantly changing the fries that they’re serving, trying to hit a sweet spot?

        Instead my go to is the Daily Double and small fry from McDonald’s.

    I remember burger king being better back then too it’s literally inedible now, McDonald’s and Wendy’s and still good though just not as cheap as they used to be. Fuck burger king it’s so bad.

        The nuggets in the US from BK might as well be made form plastic

      And they have the audacity to charge 13-15 bucks for a combo now, at least where I live. Bottom-tier fast food for 15 bucks…

        Lmao what the fuck?! I only go because they send me “8pc chicken fries and a medium fry for $3” coupons in the mail, and that’s the only edible item (I swear they buy them from sysco and that’s why they’re ok lol). $15 they can go fist themselves!

      Maybe this is just me but I used to LOVE fast food, my fat ass would DoorDash Dairy Queen almost everyday during the pandemic. Ended up gaining 50lbs after I had just reached my goal for losing 100lbs-120lbs. I’m 210 now but I miss being around 170. (used to be 300 a couple years ago)

      I can say now that I don’t eat fast food or Doordash anymore mostly because I feel like I’m eating micro plastic fake meat (may not be entirely true but maybe you know what I mean)

      Unironically yes .

      McDonald’s , bk, and the rest of them include the ice in the syrup ratio. McDonald’s Cokes are always fresh and delicious.
