I still prefer a flame broiled Whopper over any other fast food, but Wendy's is my second choice for a burg.

Do y'all not have Whataburger or Chic-Fil-A up there?

I mean I like the Whopper as well, but I can't see how it can even be in the same ballpark as Whataburger or Chic-Fil-A.

I wouldn't be caught dead in any of these joints.

No Whataburger, and the closest CFA is a 25 minute drive, vs. 12 minutes for everything else.

I can fuck me up some CFA, granted. But for burgs BK is my fave.

If you die any time soon we are going to take your corpse to all these places and stage pictures like you were taking selfies there.

I've never liked BK, for whatever reason. That being said, I rarely get burgers in fast food restaurants. Hardees about once a year.

I never get fast food. I occasionally get restaurant fare from a bar or table, like tonight before Sabbath.

1) You assume I haven't planned ahead.
2) You assume someone will find my corpse.

Next time you are in the south see if you can find a whataburger. You won't think of BK as being the best after that.

Although now that I think on it, the Steakhouse Thickburger at Carls Jr is also better than the Whopper. I had forgotten about that one. But it's the only burger I've had at Carls that is good enough to pass that bar.

What you call Carl's Jr, we call Hardees.

That's weird.

I used to work at a Hardee's back in high school. It was nothing at all like what a Carls Jr is like now. Although that was pretty long ago.

Hardee's was bought in 1997 by Carl's Jr, over time they converted Hardee's menu/signage, etc to reflect Carl's Jr, but kept the name.

The best thing about Hardee's when I was a kid: Their biscuits. They were the only place to get them way back when, and they were delicious.

I remember someone taking me to McDonalds and telling me that the Egg McMuffin was just like a biscuit.

Liars.

That's just evil.

Biscuits make up about 25% of my food intake. Carls Jr biscuits are in the acceptable range, but not strictly speaking "good". BK & McD are not.

Bojangles are probably the best fast food biscuits. I enjoy Hardee's biscuits. McD's is "meh" at best.

Where do you get your biscuits?

Various places. I have breakfast randomizer that I roll each morning before heading to work to find out where I'll stop on the way, and there are frequently biscuits involved.

I think for fast food around here Whataburger has the best biscuits, with Chic-Fil-A being a close second. The "Biscuit Taco" at Taco Bell is by far the worst. That thing is a crime against nature.
