No one likes to admit it, but there are some days when you're just too busy, too hungry, or too drunk to have a proper meal. You need something substantial, satisfying, and stat. And that's why we've become a gluttonous nation of coronaries-in-waiting completely addicted to fast food.
But I'm not here to judge; no, dear reader, I'm here to help. If you find yourself on a stretch of dismal strip malls full of burger joint signs, and absolutely famished, you need to know where your best options lie. Now for logistical reasons I can't review every item on every fast food menu, but I did go to nine, count 'em, nine fast food chains to warn you about The Worst Fast Food Burger Ever.
THE METHODOLOGY:
With my increasingly-concerned wife, Kat, tagging along, I scouted out the nine most popular fast food restaurants and picked the most epic-looking burger I could find. Additionally, using my patented 1-10 scale (1 being the worst thing ever and 10 being absolutely delicious) I scored on the following vectors:
Appearance
Smell
Taste
Would I eat it again?
I went with chains that have the largest reach possible; while some of these might be regional, rest assured you'll be prepared if you find yourself in the Midwest with a hankering for some heart disease.
THE CHALLENGERS:
McDonald's
Hardee's (or Carl's Jr. to you folks West of the Rockies)
Jack in the Box
White Castle (or Krystal Burger if you're down South)
Del Taco (yes, they make burgers)
Steak 'n Shake
Burger King
Sonic
Wendy's
That's right. I reviewed nine of the biggest, greasiest burgers I can find ... in a row. All so you'll know what not to order.
Stay tuned. We're about to get fatter.
Next: Good Burgers (starring Kenan and Kel)!
