Conform Dammit!!

The BBQ Pit

So I go to Burger King for dinner tonight, right. And my dining companion orders a “meal deal” thingy. Medium sized. As we’re sitting there eating, my mind happens to wander to the fry box.

Has anyone else ever noticed that Burger King gives you fewer fries in their “medium” than McDonalds does?

Now, I like McDonalds better to begin with, but jeez! Gimme some more fries dammit!!!

Ok. I haven’t started a thread for a while, so when I realized the fry issue, I jumped on it. Looking at it now, it’s not quite as big of a deal, but at the time it pissed me off.

Frickin’ cheap skates. GRRRRRRRRRRR!!!

Ah, but BK has something resembling onion rings. And that makes all the difference, IMO.

Are you complaining that you are running out of fries before you run out of sandwich? Bugs ME when that happens.

I’m a french fry maniac. I’m just bitching cuz I want more fries. The fast food industry has become so damn conforming in all other aspects. They ought to do it there, too!

And I don’t eat onion rings, but I LOOOOOVE the smell of them…

4

But…BK fries SUCK!
[sub]Terrible food, and such small portions![/sub]

That’s why you get the onion rings.

When I eat at BK, I always get the “onion” rings.

However.

Whatever “onion” powder they use for flavor has a very unfortunate effect on me.

Let’s just say I become a olfactory biohazard about an hour after I consume them and continue to be a hazard for 24 hours.

PEEEEYEW!!!

particlewill, my brother! I feel your pain!

I had to stop eating BK onion rings for that very reason… when my own gaseous emissions make ME nauseated, it’s time for a switch!:eek:

I do miss them, though… BK onion rings are good!!

:frowning:

Damn gas!

Darn Astrogirl and her refined sense of smell!

Curses. I’m going to go sulk now.

Methinks you need to expand your dining experience.
Burger King?
Yeesh.

BK onion rings can’t hold a candle to Arby’s Onion Petals! They actually use real onion slices and the dipping sauce is pure ambrosia.

If you want Onion Rings worth traveling across continents for, you must go to Hunky’s on Cedar Springs in Dallas, Texas. Big, hand-cut onions dipped in tempura batter and fried to a perfect golden brown. One of the few things I miss since leaving Dallas.

Oh yeah, the burgers there rock, too.

I’ve got one word for you: supersize.
Not that I would ever do such a thing.

12

No, what’s great are Arby’s jalapeno poppers!!! YUM!

Actually, I find this the best part of the rant.

I can see the interior dialogue…

SM: "Man, this fry portion sucks. What’s wrong with these idiots? This really pisses me off! I am so angry.

…

Wait…I’m pissed off! choir sings I can rant about this! I can make a thread in the Pit!"

Hey, I feel that way when thread ideas occur to me as well.
