That's hilarious!

One has to wonder if they're just not using dye to make it look better all the time and just aren't for Halloween

Thank you!

Although I wouldn't do it for lunch again. Felt awful in the afternoon yesterday. Maybe one, but definitely not two.

Wait... by "do it", do you mean "eat one of the burgers"?

not even good for a BK burger?

A belated birthday lunch is dependent on your opinion.

I will, maybe once a year, eat a double beef quarter pounder with cheese, which I usually find "mostly ok".

Maybe it was the combination of A1 and mayo, but if I were at a BK again with a gun to my head, I'd order a double cheeseburger and not this.

So, not awful. Yay! Normally I'd rather go to my favorite local Thai place but my kid wants to treat me and we had already settled on green poo burgers as a fun thing to do. Thanks for you help.

Had you mentioned that you had a child, I would have told you to get him/her there pronto.

Even more amazing than the color is the way it tastes!

Tell your kid that, too.

36. I never walk away from Burger King feeling good about my decision

I mean, "flame-broiled Whopper"...BK is the King, alright...the king of luke-warm, room temperature pre-cooked burgers, of wilted "on its way out" bagged lettuce, or mayo and slimy tomato on a bun.

My "go-to" burger...assuming I am nowhere near an In 'n' Out...is the Western Bacon Cheeseburger from Carl's Jr. I like A1 Sauce...the few times I've gone to Five Guys, that's what I've gotten, a double cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato and A1.

But in the hands of Burger King? My initial impression was "a crap burger with a little A1 on it."

The "lettuce" may have been some kind of pale greenish algae and I'd rather not discuss what I assume was to be taken as a "tomato".

OK, gotta run home and fill up on leftover carrots, walnuts and dried cherries to keep me away from 5 Guys.

I gotta remember: It's for my physical and economic health... It's for my physical and economic health... It's for my physical and economic health...

Nope. Still wanting a 5 Guys cheeseburger.

It was on the road between Lincoln, NE and Iowa City, IA.

I have never eaten another fast food burger. If there's no other option
(driving long distances) I'll eat a chicken sandwich. But never, ever,
another burger.
