Got a Krabby Patty meal

King RiptorKing Riptor Registered User regular
I guess I do notable fast food promotions now. Ok.

The Burger was a Wendy's burger. It has weird onions ( I asked for no onion but as I understand it they have a literal guide in making these) the sauce is really good! I hope they keep it as a regular thing tbh

The frosty was
I didn't care for the vanilla Frosty. Its an abomination. The pineapple syrup or whatever it was leaked to the bottom and didn't mix in despite my best efforts. It also didn't taste like pineapple

Fries were ok. Eat fries at the restaurant folks. They aren't meant to travel

Overall for a tenner it wasn't bad. Might get it again

    It's weird to me to read of folks acrosd the pond use "fiver" or "tenner" to refer to their cash when that felt very Bri'ish

    I want to try Wendy's

    Pineapple vanilla sounds... unpleasant. I didn't even know they did anything more for the promotion past the burger, to be honest.

    Wendy's is the best of the big three, I think. Best burgers, the fries aren't quite as good as McDonald's. Their soda syrup to seltzer water ratio is my favorite.

    I agree Wendy’s is the best of the big three usually.

    Unfortunately the Wendy’s here is fucking terrible so I never eat there.

    yeah, when we were moving in, I saw a Popeye's like, 5 minutes from my house and was psyched, but it turns out this Popeye's is like, a local celebrity, it sucks so bad.

    Vanilla Frosty is just soft serve with no character so that's already a reason to hate it but yeah the syrup wasn't good at all. Its pineapple mango apparently

    I had one delivered but they left out my pineapple frosty, which I was severely disappointed about.

    That said, the burger is just a Dave's single with special sauce, but there are worse burgers, I liked it well enough.

    It's like, kind of insane how zero effort this collaboration is though. Like they didn't even bother to print up special foil paper to wrap the burger in.

    I'm gonna try and swing by a Wendy's sometime soon and grab the frosty, and maybe even another Krabby Patty while I'm at it.

    The Grimace Shake came to Australia recently and it was fine. Not a flavour I care for but exactly as whelming as I expected. I can just picture the board meeting plotting to capitalise on its viral status.

    My favourite dumb collaboration in recent years was Rebel Moon and Smiths, nothing like chowing down on some *checks notes* Motherworld Feast Roast Beef Garlic and Herb chips. As gauche as it is there's a part of me that's glad this dumb marketing stunt is still a thing.

    oh sorry, that's the number of locations in the US

    edit: but now I can't find the graph again

    stupid google!

  • BahamutZEROBahamutZERO Registered User regular
    ah, well since the answer is individual it's based on people's perceptions and thus regional. No one cares about national location totals for rating what's in their awareness. They care about what's in their local area, and all the smaller chains that are more regional are more represented. Also I think everyone agrees burger king has kind of terrible food as it gets strangled to death by a private equity firm, so it gets kicked off the list.

    I think every chain other than McDonald's varies a lot more in quality now than a decade ago. I don't know why McDonald's seems to stay the same

    Doc: That's right, twenty five years into the future. I've always dreamed on seeing the future, looking beyond my years, seeing the progress of mankind. I'll also be able to see who wins the next twenty-five world series.

    ime Jack in the Box and Taco Bell are extremely reliable as far as quality goes.

    And speaking of Taco Bell, why isn't it on that fast food chain list? Arby's is also missing.

  • Sir PlatypusSir Platypus Registered User regular
    I'd assume it is targeting burger places.

  • EtiowsaEtiowsa Registered User regular
    I guess Wendy's is different in the stares cuz up in Canada they are complete trash. But then most fast food burgers can't rally stand up to Harvey's.

    I find chalupa shell quality to be extremely variable. It might be time of day however

    Back in the aughts, BK was probably my favorite fast food almost entirely on the strength of their fries at the time

    I think it was like 2011 when they ruined them completely and now BK fries are basically inedible

  • cj iwakuracj iwakura The Rhythm Regent Bears The Name FreedomRegistered User regular
    Wendy's went off a cliff after Thomas passed. The fries got worse and all the sandwiches, especially the chicken, got way smaller.

    They're Vegan according to Stephen Hillenberg but everyone always uses a burger patty when they make their version.

    McDonalds corporate makes a huge chunk of their money selling the uncooked/unheated food to their franchisee's. I actually think it's the bedrock of their business model. They probably know the second a bun in the middle of nowhere is officially too stale and they call up the owner and don't say anything.

    They just call because the owner knows they fucked up
