Wendy's Bought by Arby's: Let's Talk Burger Joints
Posts
Checker's is where it's at. The fries taste like chicken, and getting the double checker burger with bacon is perhaps my favorite fast food item.
1: Order your fries without salt. This will force them to make a special batch of fries just for you.
2: Take a salt packet.
3: Sprinkle salt to taste on the freshly-made, hot, delicious fries you were just handed.
You're going to have someone jizz in your mouth twice?
Uh you're the one who likes Wendy's, and thus likes shit.
1. Any idea how much longer Wendy's locations are going to be staying open?
2. What the balls is wrong with you people, Hardee's Thickburgers are a fucking gift from the gods.
So many food chains I'm missing out on over here.
Fuck you Pennsylvania.
Jack In The Box gets a special award for Most Creative.
I just figured cause everyone else was saying it....
I'm torn. I very badly want to reward them for their wonderful marketing, but the food is an abortion on my tongue.
JitB has the best fish and chips. I feel like shit every time I eat them, though, because there's a 2:1 grease:fish ratio.
They also have the best shakes and some awesome burgers. Mmm... Ciabatta...
That said, I prefer Arby's regular fries to all others. Kind of sucks, since the Arby's near my house stopped SELLING regular fries a while back...
I like Arbys more. They have a Reuben. And roast beef sammichs.
Which are totally awesome.
You know what Jack In The Box needs to do? Have more locations. I don't think there's a single one in Mississippi, but plenty in Louisiana.
Twice.
The food has gone downhill some at my area locations, but you can always count on the Spicy Chicken.

Wendy's fries are ok, but if you live in Kansas and claim anyone has better regular fries than Spangle's, I'm already on my way to your house with a can of gasoline and a matchbox. Shitty commercials though.
Man, taking a car full of 5 college students to order things off the dollar menu for themselves plus 5 other people at 1 in the morning, piecemeal, as little was decided beforehand is a great way to get extra food. We didn't do it deliberately. But we made the order screen scroll quite a bit.
Also, while I would rather eat Arby's curly fries than Wendy's regular. I really really love the fries and frosty combo.
Indeed. A Pannedo and two tacos = fabulous meal. Jack in the Box tacos are great late night foodstuffs. You heard me, Taco Bell, JitB has your primetime owned... with a product that is in your restaurant name, no less!
Too bad Jack in the Box, as noted above, has limited locations. There are none in my old college town and the only Oklahoma locations are in podunk little towns but not in the OKC metro area. Seriously, what the hell is wrong with their real estate department?
The Pandido, or whatever? The long, skinny sandwich on a baguette, or something? Those were fucking fantastic.
They have Jacks all over the damned place down here. It's like Starbucks. Wendys used to be hard to come by, but then they got a few. I remember when you'd have to drive 40 miles to find one. Then they put one in Davis - I celebrated by going there every day for lunch for the first week. Their service is consistently great. The one in Elk Grove sort of sucks, which is why I came up with my fry scheme. You have to trick them into giving you good fries.
Mmmmm, deep-fried lettuce.
As far as burger joints in general go, Five Guys Burgers and Fries is tops in my book. All toppings (except cheese) are free and you can choose whatever you like to put on it. And the fries are just to die for.
There is one Wendy's near where I work that is always super-busy which nevertheless moves its customers through the line at a terrifying speed. Unfortunately this is offset by the absurd slowness of every other Wendy's in the area.
Like, it was a HUGE thing when we got it.

I prefer my fries to be chilled thoroughly before fried. It ensures a crispier outside.
I'll take a Jack in the Box Angus Sirloin burger over those anyday.
