I had my wisdom teeth pulled a few days ago, reading this thread is like torture. My biggest craving right now is to stuff my face full of White Castles.

Was going to stop by chick fil a yesterday on my way back to work. Things have been chaotic as of late and I've only ever ate there once and liked it so thought I would treat myself. I was looking forward to it after being at the dealership for 2 hours only to find out on the way there, the route I needed to take was closed and I would have to go 45minutes out of my way to go there.

It was a sad time indeed.

There's a Burger King near me that has delivered now for a few years. I hate Burger King though.

Burger King Posts Biggest Sales Gain in Almost a Decade - Bloomberg Business

Burger King posted its best North American growth in almost a decade after cheap chicken nuggets and limited-time items drew customers, helping parent company Restaurant Brands International Inc. beat earnings estimates.
Sales at Burger King locations open at least 13 months jumped 6.9 percent in the region last quarter, the most in more than nine years, Restaurant Brands said on Monday.
The company, formed last year when Burger King took over the Canadian doughnut chain Tim Hortons, posted overall earnings of 18 cents a share, excluding some items.
Analysts surveyed by Bloomberg had predicted profit of 15 cents.

Restaurant Brands, the world?s third-largest fast-food company, used promotions and discounted items to boost sales at Burger King in an increasingly competitive industry.
The results contrasted with those of McDonald?s Corp., which has struggled to pull itself out of a sales slump.
That chain plans to unveil a turnaround plan next week after reporting a 2.3 percent decline in same-store sales last quarter.

Good for BK. Their food quality isn't nearly as bad as McD. I still wouldn't go to either but at least I don't actively avoid BK like I actively avoid McD. I just passively avoid it since the nearest BK is next to the Raising Canes and I'd never invision ever wanting BK over Raising Canes.

I've said it before, but the thing I like about BK is they actually grill/broil their burgers. They come in frozen but they are actually flame broiled at least. I don;t know what mcdonalds does in their little drawers they put the burgers in.

I don't think BK is always bad, but definitely the worst gray-meat burgers I have had have been at BK. I would definitely put them below McDonald's.

McDonalds were douche bags in their response.

Burger King Wants McDonald's Help to Make the 'McWhopper' - Fortune

Dear Burger King,
Inspiration for a good cause. great idea.
We love the intention but think our two brands could do something bigger to make a difference.
We commit to raise awareness worldwide, perhaps you'll join us in a meaningful global effort?
And every day, let's acknowledge that between us there is simply a friendly business competition and certainly not the unequaled circumstances of the real pain and suffering of war.
We'll be in touch.
-Steve, McDonald's CEO
P.S. A simple phone call will do next time.
Basically "No, lets just do fundraising of some sort, also, go F yourself for making us look bad with this response"

A meeting I had today necessitated me eating fast food again, which I was not looking forward to. I've just had too much for now. However, I had the Dairy Queen FlameThrower Grill burger, and enjoyed it. Not terribly spicy, but a nice heat and flavour. I'd get it again.
It is one of the better Fast Food chain spicy sauces, it has a really nice flavor.
