    I can't imagine ever paying for one of these things, but they make such a big deal on the commercial about not being able to tell the difference in it and a regular burger. I don't really go to BK, but still, I call bullshit. Anyone tried it?

    I tried it out of curiosity. It was no bueno. It had a strange burnt taste to it. Could 100% tell that it's not a normal whopper.

    I just got up. I rarely eat breakfast but I was thinking about making French toast and lots of bacon. I'm out of bacon. If I had a bacon tree in my yard I would pick some.

    I saw a commercial where Burger King is touting their new pretzel bun. All of America's problems can be traced back to when people started experimenting with the hamburger. I don't want a pretzel bun. I don't want donuts for a bun. I don't want panini or sourdough or cibiabi or any kind of "artisanal" bun.

    I want a plain white bun with enough firmness to not fall apart. Sesame seeds are OK. Lettuce, tomatoes, pickles and onions are OK. So are mayonnaise, mustard and ketchup. Bacon ond cheese are superb additions to the standard hamburger.

    Anybody who takes it further than that should be thrown into a gulag and given nothing to eat but veggie burgers for 20 years.
