I love Whoppers. Like, I love them more than a man should love any food item.

I allow myself about one per month to avoid becoming a complete fat ass.

I feel the same way about McDonald's double cheeseburgers. The melange (yeah, I went there) of minced onions and ketchup is like ambrosia.

If the opened up a MOS Burger (Japanese fast food chain) around here, I would eat there all day every day until I finally died of terrible, terrible cardiovascular disease. So good.

I like triple O's burgers, sadly both Burger Kings in Kamloops are at the edge of town and on opposite sides so there's no quick way of getting to them because of this I have no memory of what Burger Kings burgers

taste like.

It's funny, people like to try to sound like hipsters and hate on fast food, but damn that stuff can be delicious. It's got chemicals added to it to make it taste good!

I love the McDonald's Big Mac, well I did before it became the Mini Mac, it was a sad day when they decided to shrink it.

English service industry staff in general are pretty abysmal. I think it's because the service industry is overwhelmingly populated by sullen teenagers.

Can I just say that even the advertising shot of that Arby's sandwich still looks pretty hideous?

Best burger I've ever had is from Fat Burger.... Zippy's and 5 Guys are also good.

Arby's only does three things right:

1: Black Cows
2: Cheese Sticks
3: Horsey sauce

I don't even get me started on how much Arby's is an offense to my taste buds, a diarrhea dump in my mouth would be more pleasant than the horrible concoctions that fast-food chain produces.

There must be something wrong with me, because IMO Arby's roast beef, even with their fake cheese sauce, is tastier than most other fast food restaurants.

I've never actually had one of those sandwiches, but looking at it doesn't make me want to.

You eat with all of your senses, and my eyes want to throw up when they see that picture.

You should see what they've done to it in the UK, it's jut heart breaking. I hadn't had a Big Mac in like 4 years, I opened the box ready to go to work and..... it was like 1/3 of the size, I couldn't believe my eyes, at first I thought it was a joke or something but my friends said "Nah, that's just how they are now" and sure enough, they were right. A quick Google search shows I wasn't just imagining things.

The question isn't why do I kill. The question is, why I don't kill everybody.

I once bet a friend that I could eat 6 big macs in an hour. I won the bet but lost the war, as the gastrointestinal consequences I faced from the act were, to put it lightly, brutal.

Not a huge Big Mac fan, tend to stick with the Quarter Pounder w/ Cheese when I hit McDonalds...
Overall however I prefer The Whopper, just taste better IMO..
...Arby's though, burn that slop pit to the ground...nastiest fast food ever.
