Well, now we’re examining fast food, I have a question:

Did the Whopper shrink? I hadn’t had one in 20 years, but my Walmart + account gets me a free one with any order(plus 25% off) and I got one about two weeks ago.

I mean…I ate it very easily. It did not seem all that big.

BK-style flame grilling is nothing like a char grilled burger. There was a place we went to once in a while when I was a kid that did char-broiled stuff. There burgers were great.

Oh well…  
In australia theres a real limit to good fast food…  
Its all pies and sausage rolls which are more revolting.  
Theres kfc and now karls jnr but the prices are off the rails now…
