In a situation where these 2 fast food places were your only source of food for the day - which one would you choose?
Fasting for the day.
McDonalds. Double Quarter Pounder, make it plain, substitute the American Cheese for Swiss.
smurf my arteries.
Burger King, or at least mine in my town. It's a corporate owned one so it's nommy.
Whopper with cheese no tomatoes. NOM
In this scenario choosing neither of the two results in death by being mauled by a fuzzball of kittens.Quote:

Yeah same for me as Pauw. I love McD's fries, and also their cheeseburgers.
I prefer Arby's over both but McD's if these are the only two options
I haven't been to BK in forever, idk why
Burger King (Hungry Jacks in Aus) is the only fastfood chain where I actually think "This burger is bigger than I thought it would be". Everywhere else it's always "is that all?". And when they finally brought out a breakfast menu there was no more reason to go to McDonalds aside from location availability. Also free refills!
Burger King is disgusting.
McDonald's is not.
DONALD BURGERS!
More seriously, Burger King because I don't think there is a single mcd burger that tastes anything special. they had some limited time things now and then that I liked, but they didn't keep them around.
McDonalds for most food, but if it's a chicken burger then I prefer the Chicken Royale with Cheese (although if I could choose KFC for chicken burgers, I would).
The kittens will begin their mauling after you have been force-fed both McDonalds and Burger King food. Right, Aulayna?Quote:

I'm going with BK.
BK makes the better burgers, but then they add things like tomato. Sure I can ask for no tomato, but the inconvenience is a strike against them. McDonalds also has the better fries. Like, it's not actually even a comparison. McDonalds makes fries that are like mana from heaven and BK makes fries like they would be if fries secretly meant something bob trout out in the back room and we added to your combo.
I guess I'd be going to BK to get a burger and McD's to get some fries and paying far too much for both?
Who buys fries at BK or McD? Seriously guys. You're there for burgers, not potatoes boiled in fat.
Who doesn't order fries with their burgers?
Me.Quote:

McDonald's fries are their only redeeming quality.
I tried eating McDonalds for the first time in years a few months ago and I nearly spit it out. I could hardly take more than 2 bites of the Big Mac.
Their fries are still great though and their coffee is surprisingly good too. So definitely McDonalds over Burger King, which is like the worst fast food chain ever.
If it came to it, I'd take BK fries and either a coke or an ice water.
Healthy people :doublecolbert:.Quote:

Here's a story: while in Washington with Baloki, Jiro, and Proto, we ate a McDonald's a good four times because Jiro and Loki thought American McDonald's was, like, supremely delicious.
It depends. In Bournemouth their within a five minute walk in the town centre. I don't exactly have a preference for either, so it really boils down to how crowded it is in the "restaurant". I don't do crowds, particularly in fast food places. I'm embarrassed enough having to go in there!
If both "restaurants" are pretty much the same capacity, it then boils down to which one has the least teenagers. I'll choose that one.
I tend to order burgers with my burgers (double double cheeseburger!). :) Although I still get fries about half the time, I suppose.Quote:

Sure, I'll skip them if I have to eat fast food several times a week for some reason, but if they weren't so awful for you I'd get them every time.Quote:

Big King XXL = Great
Mc Rib = Perfect
Burger King for me, tbh. I like their onion rings, which McDonald's DON'T HAVE.
This is easy for me. I don't eat opossum burgers, so BK for me.
You guys actually get opossum? I'm pretty sure ours are just ground up hobo and Chinese newspapers.Quote:

Lunchtime orders would generally consist of something along the lines of a quarter pounder with cheese meal or if I wanted to be fussy: Double cheeseburger, med fries, chocolate milkshake and an apple pie. mmmm yeah feel those arteries clog!
McDonald's, BK is meh.

I'd go with BK at a push though... due to their MUCH BETTER FRIES!
having worked at both at one point and knowing what goes on in those kitchens not to mention quality control, i'd have to go with BK...
on the subject of the fries BK's are better but i like them less now that they changed them for the super fat ones... i have to put less fries on my burger now...
Limp they may be, but they taste better.Quote:

I'm just going to assume that this is a byproduct of where you live and that you aren't, in fact, insane.Quote:

Id go to mcdonalds, get a drink... And leave
Both places disgust me
Don't you ever get tired of being so right all the time?Quote:

Again, I must disagree. Anything lathered in salt is disgusting if taken to excess (like McDonald's fries). Plus, they only do that so you buy an extra large cup of liquid sugar.Quote:

There is no such thing as excess where salt is concerned.

Actually, I prefer Wendy's for their sea salt fries and chocolate frosty. :P
But between Burger King and McDonald's, I would choose McDonald's for their fries and smoothies, oh yeah, and their chocolate frappé! Mmm, frappé! :D
Five Guys fries are even better. As are their burgers.
I don't exactly prefer one over the other, but assuming this situation was in my area I would go to McDonalds for one simple reason:
All the BKs around here are super slow. Keep in mind that I am absurdly patient when it comes to food service. In fact, I will occasionally call out another customer if I feel they are acting like a brat because someone made a slight error or that they didn't get their food in an unrealistic amount of time.
But there is no way ordering a burger with a regular sized fry should take 10 to 20 minutes. Every single time I tried. I figured maybe it was just one particular location. So when my girlfriend and I went to go eat, she felt like Burger King and we went in, but it was at a different location. There were three people working. The manager hid in the back. He said he would be with us in a moment. He continued to hide in the back. We left.
Okay, so maybe it was that area in general that sucked. The one by my parent's house was always cool when I was a kid. NOPE! Inattentive workers and another 20 minute wait for a very simple order.
Haven't been to one since.
Five Guys fries suck. o_OQuote:

Maybe BK sucks dick in most of the US compared to in Norway? Who would know?! Not many. I mean after all, there's probably not a single ingredient used in our BK burgers that come from the same place as a BK burger made in California. Except maybe the ketchup.Quote:

All of these places the difference was minimal. :p
Yeah but those places are all in America.
There's big differences in McDonalds burgers between European countries. Italian, Spanish, Eastern European McDonalds are pretty good, Western European and Portuguese McDonalds are trout. It has to do (probs among other things) with their meat industry.
Yeah, it's all about the country. I know NZ, UK, US and Spanish McDonalds are all rather different.
Burger King, their fries are better and their burgers more filling.
Burger King if I have to choose between those and only those two. They have good chicken sandwiches.
But they make their fries fresh, unlike McD's and BK. Despite that, I'm not too big on them. They usually give too many.Quote:

What a stupid, stupid man. There were bids for over a grand, for a smurfing hamburger, and he kept it for some 'educational use'. What profit he could have achieved! I know what my business venture is going to be.Quote:

Probably the only good purpose I could do with that burger (besides cashing in that grand) is to go to Macdonalds with a friend. Offer to go collect and order the food like a good friend. While the friend is waiting, you go get the food on that tray and slyly replace the fresh burger he ordered (or you ordered for him) and in it's place the 14-year old burger.Quote:
