My wife says Burger King is better than McDonald's for burgers, but that
opinion is based upon "tastings" decades ago.
IMHO the burger itself is secondary to the bun and the dressings on a
whopper. It is basically a tossed salad on a bun with a little chunk
of char broiled flavoring.
Don't waste your money on a double meat whopper.
Some are stores better than others and I can't really say why. They
are supposed to all use the same recipe but some have fresher produce
or something.
I ate a lot of free whoppers when I was doing the register surveys and
rollouts around Tampa St Pete.
Like most restaurants, some are squeaky clean, other are **** holes.
Look around the register and as much as you can see from the counter.
It will give you a clue. If they don't pull out the register and clean
under it, they don't clean much else either.
We are infrequent visitors to fast food places, maybe once in every three
months. Don't like burgers that much, have seen Popeye's food and find it
despicable looking, Kentucky Fried chicken seems covered in fat, read
strange things about the "meat" at Taco Bell, et cetera. WaWa has a nice tuna wrap.
I use McD's a lot when traveling. Free WIFI. Being over 55, I eat a
McDouble, or a grilled onion cheddar and a senior drink. Costs around
$1.84 and is less than a 400 calorie meal. I see obese people eating these
huge burgers with fries. Maybe 1500 calories? You can get grilled chicken
at most places instead of a deep fried batter substance. Most road trips,
we split a 12" Subway.
