I ate a Baconator once, and it only increased my pessimism for the future of mankind. Actually, I wanted to turn into Hulk and blow up this double-quotation-marks ""restaurant"".
I enjoy their spicy chicken, but beyond that... :shame:Quote:

You can find nutritional info for Wendy's menu here.
Real Texan's don't count calories. They count number of cattle per pattie.Quote:

Why is it when im feeling kind of hungry SFTS seems to open a thread about yet another OTT american 'meal/snack' which looks absolutely stunning...
Im going to have to have some toast or something else exciting...
We do not have Wendy's here...
...but it doesn't look much to me.
However, it has Bacon and therefore is blessed food and should be cherissed and worshiped by the faithful.
That is exactly what happened to me, right after a 3 hour exam as well. :furious3:Quote:

Strike, I know you are a big guy, but that is a good way to have heart attack/get fat.
I salute you for spending time amongst the natives and reporting back to civilization. :bow:Quote:

Pannonian, you deserve a HOF award for making me laugh all the time!
This, from a group of people who eat raw hamburger meat mixed with raw onions and Worcestershire sauce. And baby eels.Quote:

Seriously, though, Wendy's has gone way downhill recently; they used to be rather good. If you want a real hamburger, though, you had best avoid not just the fast-food joints, but most "standard" American restaurants as well (i.e. Ruby Tuesday's, T.G.I. Fridays and other local knockoffs.) The true burger joint will either advertise its burgers right in the name (such as "Joe's Burgers"), or will be a small, rather funky-looking restaurant, usually with some random initials for a name. Of course, if you are only in America for a short period of time and can't hunt down a real burger joint, there are a few chains that still sell a genuine burger; the only one I can think of at the moment are Sonic (seriously, it's fast food but the burgers taste like real burgers!) and I've heard good things about the In-And-Out Burger, but it's only located in the Southwest.
Now quit eating your raw beef and various other inedible/disgusting/lethal dishes and enjoy some true American cuisine. :2thumbsup:
Reverand Joe: funny. the same goes for israeli food, and im sure the same for all regional foods.
the schwarma shacks taste so much better than the big restaurants with it.
They have good shakes too.Quote:

Ha the baconator is weak. Go to burger King and buy the STEAKHOUSE burger. Pretty sure that it has heart attack written in barbecue sauce on the inside. No i love this burger like it is my own child. I am a seventeen year old boy and this burger gives me heartburn. Psh, as to getting fat who cares, i eat the baconator but i only weigh 195 pounds. That may sound like a lot but im 6'2 and play football, basketball, and swimming. Seriously go look up the steakhouse if i was a vegan i would love that burger, hell if i was a cow i would love that burger. SFTS you from Texas then you should be looking for the biggest and the best, to you sir i say drop the little red headed girl and pick up the king. I'd get a picture but it exceeds the size limit of what tosa says we can post. :laugh4:
Five Guys > Wendys
I haven't eaten there since Dave Thomas was alive, but from what I remember they certainly didn't skimp on the beef.
Maybe for our foreign visitors they should offer it on a crepe or croissant or baguette or sumptin'...
:yes:Quote:

They just opened a five guys. Must try.
they opened up 5 guys? cannibals.
I don't know about you guys but A&W is where it's at. I would kill someone for a bite of that juicy, delicious, orgasmic burger.
I rarely eat at fast food unless I'm travelling, and I need to get wherever I'm going in a relatively quick amount of time. If I'd have to Choose, it would probably actually be Wendy's... Spicy Chicken Fillet. However, having that said, nothing beats waiting an extra 20 minutes for a truly awesome homemade hamburger.
I like a&w's root beer nothing much more. As to homemade burgers i second that. My dad makes the most scrumptious delicious burger i have ever tasted. I have to say though that i bought these things called bubba burgers which are pre-made patties to keep in the freezer. Ive never been much of a pre made food kinda guy but these are really good, truly a must try for the aspiring cook

Ha we Americans love our fast food because we are fat slobs who are into consumerism and instant gratification. Plus it is really tasty actually. No the real reason lies in the 1950's, president Eisenhower's national interstate highway system, and the improvement of family vehicles. But that will take up a page of writing so lets not go there
Oh and micky d's is McDonald's (the king of the grease, the shah of the nugget, the czar of the drive through, etc. well you get it)
I wasn't calling americans fat slobs as I am rather overweight myself but I just don't see how people can eat all that greasy oily crap that fastfood chains produce.Quote:

We call McDonalds maccas over here, which is kind of strange since that is also what we call macadamia nuts :shrug:
On the very rare occasion that I do happen to eat macca's, (usualy when someone else buys) I feel sick all day afterwards.
Heh you're as bad as somone I knew, back in the days when I used to eat nothing but KFC one of my friends had it and said he felt liked someone knifed him in the gut.
I can't understand all these people who don't like fast food places...
Every fast food place i have been to has served lovely tasting food, Im fairly sure i could goto burger king, maccy d's (what we call McDonalds down this way) Wendys (ive never been but it looks lush) or just about any half decent fast food place and order something i would enjoy alot...
Fast food tastes gorgeous!!
I don't think its paticularly healthy or well made... but the taste to me is lovely...
Big Mac FTW!
Well, it's called Hardee's here, so I don't know if the quality is different, but last I had it it was pretty nasty; mostly tasteless and greasy. Of course, I used to love it as a kid, so the quality probably varies over the years. Since I haven't been in five years or so, it might be a lot better again.Quote:

Looking at this thread reminds me of why I swore off of fast food two years ago. :yes:
The site tells me to update Flash and simply provides zero information otherwise.
It sounds like pork.
I'll have some more dry bread instead. ~:)
I've indeed been seduced by a native woman. Fortunately, I convinced her to embrass civilization and move to Europe :yes:Quote:

Most american "food" is in fact mere subsistence cooking.
Edit : I'm deeply offended by the title of this topic. Comparing our Lord to a third-rate Hamburger is nothing short of Heresy. Faithless pinko communist texan ~:angry:
Oh, well, obviously a huge improvement. Clearly, raw beef is much better with Tabasco sauce than Worcestershire. :sick:Quote:

In fact, I resent your including the wonder that is Mexican cooking with the abomination of European cooking. Case in point: they don't eat fried slugs (I make no differentiation between snails and slugs, and neither do many scientists.) Slugs, shell or no, were not meant to be eaten.Quote:

I must say that a hangover plus McDonald's is a match made in heaven. :2thumbsup:
I like Jack-in-the-Box. Nothing great, but on the upper end of fast food. At least as good as McD's for me, and I like their curly fries.Quote:

Ugh. Fragony, the only I thought you Europeans were supposed to be civilized... only savages and idiots who can't grill a burger would eat raw meat. Anyhow, the manliness of a burger is based on such requirements as size, quality of beef, inclusion of bacon, etc., not whether or not it tastes like you just tore a piece off of a dead cow and shoved it between a bun.
Wendys actually isnt so bad, but their food has always struck me as a little.. messy? I dunno the word. I will admit their spicy chicken sandwich is just downright tasty.Quote:

The only thing about eating out is it always makes me feel guilty when I do it and I have to run an extra mile :laugh4:
I'm crazy about burgers, and we don't have any of those burger rings here...not even McDonalds.. :wall:..that's why whenever I go to any of the larger cities, I try to have all my meals there.
If I ever make it to USA someday, I'm going to have burgers and fries until I'm all out of cash or I get sick.......ahh, dreams :pleased: ......
Quite so! Nothing better than some bacon against a hangover. Add a burger and we're there. Hmmm CBO...Quote:
