In my opinion, Burger King was, at one time, the pinnacle of fact food. The Whopper was just $1 and tasted good. Now, it's ridiculously expensive, and tastes (like everything else except their original chicken sandwich) like crap.
Even after the price moved away from the $1 price point, it was still the best burger out there. With the changing of recipes to make it cheaper and more profitable, they really lost something. Even their fries suck now (IMO).
This, however, is something that could get me back into a Burger King, even if only for as many visits as it took me to taste every item listed here (probably 3 trips):

Why are you talking about Burger King? According to the story it's some Belgian company called 'Quick.' Are they part of BK?

The link I clicked on said it was Burger King. The article originally said BK, too. It must have been changed.HarlequinZero wrote:Why are you talking about Burger King? According to the story it's some Belgian company called 'Quick.' Are they part of BK?

Haha, that would be really awesome! Having the dark side french fries to go with your dark side burger. : ) They could even do something with the drinks! But with all that food coloring and weird stuff they would have to put in it, you would probably die after having a meal.
