What's the dll with 5 Guy's fries? They're supposed to be the bestest evar but I'm not impressed in the least, and yes they are expensive. I've given up on them.
I guess it depends on who makes it. Our local Hunts Brothers was awesome back in the day. It had mounds of cheese. It was like an inch thick and I'm not even exaggerating. But then someone new started making them and they barely put any cheese on it. I guess they were making up for all that cheese the last person was giving away. lol
When we were looking to buy land in the small town where we now live, the guy showing us around noted how close we would be to a Hunt bros, the best pizza place in the area. Ngl we gave him the side eye but it turns out he was absolutely right
LOL, I am always the only Burger King lover in every group 🤣 I still don’t know what it is that everyone hates so much, but that’s ok! That’s why we have so many options! 🥰
@@Miss_CamelI love it too, but I also hate that I love it! It’s my shame fast food! Taco Bell, McDonalds… those, people shake their heads but say “okay, she’s not wrong.” BK… they’re like “BLINK TWICE IF YOU NEED US TO CALL THE AUTHORITIES” 😂
@@rlmesek haha well, I only treat myself to fast food every six months or so, but BK has had the backs of vegetarians everywhere for DECADES, my loyalty to them was hard-won!
There was a time I loved taking my family to Five Guys for dinner because the cost was respectful. Now, I don't even like taking myself there for fear that I'll get a fraudulent card use call from my bank.
I nearly had to take out a bank loan on my last visit to 5 Guys. $10 bucks for a small burger with cheese, but, the industrial bucket of fries was only a nickel! This doesn't include what my friend ordered.
As a former Logans Roadhouse employee, I was there during the time we got to throw shells on the floor VS when we couldn't. You can thank the Karen that sued the entire company bc they fell. (Not sure which location it happened) but it caused every Logan's to stop allowing shells on the floor.
That’s all it ever takes is one person to ruin for everyone. First time ever heard of someone slipping on a peanut shell. So I’m curious if A) she had any ambulatory issues prior, B) what shoes she was wearing and C) was she intoxicated. If the staff can work there all day in boots and never fall once, something’s gotta be going on with this woman.
Bonus bonus: Stop making us scan QR codes for the menu and just give us a dang physical menu! I do not want to have to stare at my phone while waiting for yet another page to load just to see what your sides are!
Yes! I forgot about the newsprint table tops! That’s when Wendy’s was a clean, nice place to eat. Used to go there for the chili. Now they sell it in grocery stores! Happy! Stopped going to that filth hole years ago.
McDonald's has changed from that lovable adolescent with the Golden Arches and the cool Happy Meal toys, to a surly Gen Z with buildings that look like mausoleums and unhappy/bizarro toys in the unhappy meals.
I suspect my McD's ice cream machine isn't actually broken, they just don't want to sell any ice cream. Yesterday the lady in front of me ordered ice cream and the kitchen yelled "we don't have any ice cream" and the manager overrode that and magically produced ice cream for the lady he was totally flirting with.
They opened a brand new McDonald's down the street and the ice cream machine was "broken" inside of a week. Not kidding. Another McDonald's in our area will always tell you the machine is broken, but will give you ice cream if you order it on the app and pick it up.
Always love how positive Matt's comment section is, love your content; know it'll just get lost in the sauce here, but we really do appreciate the smiles you bring us.
"Burger King. Stop." Hits different when you see that they are closing down stores everywhere you look. Taco Bell. Just keep the nacho fries on the menu all the time. Five Guys. Your burgers don't taste good enough to cost more than $4, much less $12. And your fries are disgusting.
Five Guys critique is Spot on. They lost sight of the fact that they are a fastfood restaurant and started charging sit-down prices for burgers. I'd rather take a less tasty burger at another restaurant for a third of the price. It fills me up just the same.
Used to work at Logan’s and pretty much every customer was surprised when we stopped serving peanuts. Saved me from a lot of sweeping at closing time though so…….
@@danieldeystar2213 Maybe? I don't know... Also I'm not in an area that gave any concern over Covid crap. Many of our stores had the "No masks and No jabs are here. If you feel unsafe do not enter" signs . Lol
McDonald's! Just get the order right! Once! Just once! My daughter thinks I'm rude because I say it's not McDonald's unless they get something wrong. I, me, the dad, I get in trouble because she understands I'm not being polite by complaining. I'm the one that gets in trouble... because you all can't get an order straight?! Do a tired dad a solid and please get it together. Or let Chick-fil-A have the "Happy Meal". God knows they'll get it right.
I hate to say this sir, but your daughter is going to end up being a neon haired zi/zir ultra liberal at this pace. Do what you can to reverse this trend before its too late and you wake up one day 15 years from now to some "a gender" polycule breeding in your basement
Taco Bell - quit making half your menu limited time Arby's - bring back potato cakes Domino's - bring back roasted red peppers for your Hawaiin pizzas Burger King - make the chicken parmasan sandwich on your full menu McDonalds - quit teasing us with the McRib Ihop - bring back you country omellete Hardee's - offer fries covered with gravy, seriously... it'll be a hit
_"Hardee's - offer fries covered with gravy, seriously"_ They could call it Redneck Poutine. As opposed to regular poutine which is redneque poutine. 😁⚜
I was at a Waffle House that solved the 3 plate tetris issue. As they finished each plate they brought it out so it was fresh. Allowed me to finish the waffle before the rest of the meal even was done which was nice cause things were fresher than usual. I suspect that it wasn't actually a waffle house cause it was super clean.
I agree with you! Took my Yankee in laws into one .in Texas. First thing my mother-in-law did was to take out the lysol wipes before we were even sitting down. Sigh....... Waffle House is an experience not an operating room. Did have to admit though, other customers were watching her in complete baffelment. Had to hide a chuckle when they started elbowing each other. 🤦♀🤦♂
I agree with EVERYTHING that you said!!! Especially about the MexiMelt --- I miss that SO MUCH. I don't know why Taco Bell got rid of it. And I do NOT like Burger King - especially in my city because they are slow, make you wait on the side of the building for 4 forevers. And typically they are RUDE. I love your comedy - Please keep doing it!
Have you tried ordering a Meximelt? Sometimes it might not be on the menu, but they will still make it for you…I’ve done that for certain things at Denny’s too.
My husband says the same thing about the Chicken minis! We live in Muscle Shoals and for a short time our Chick-fil-a had 10 piece chicken minis on Monday for supper.
I literally lost it at the BK part. My wife thought I was having some kind of attack. Funniest and most accurate thing I’ve ever heard, Matt. Alternatively, BK can go back to how they did things 30 years ago. We’ll take that too. 🙃
Around 2019, Orlando.gov BK drive thru around 1130pm, weekday had a huge spat-fight with a drunk female BK drive thru worker. That's when I knew BK was ended down 🚽.
As a parent, I second each statement about the issues with McD's, as well as Cracker Barrel's too many items. They got a lot of neat things, but never enough space inside for people to walk safely through when they're busy.
My mom is in a wheelchair. So much fun to navigate. I honestly don’t understand how it isn’t a fire safety issue in that no one has a clear exit path to the door in an emergency.
Unfortunately, for Five Guys it's actually $15-$17 here in the Carolinas for a burger, fries, and a drink now, with $10.49 for just a 2 patty cheeseburger
"If I survey 100 people and ask them what they associated 'roll' with, 99 of them would say supper. The only goofball that says 'breakfast' is you." _Ireland has entered the chat_
As a lifelong Virginian, i approve this message. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 but here, it's Texas Roadhouse. I need all these restaurants to be tagged, please and thank you
Remember when Kids Meal toys were good? Feels like nearly 10 years ago at least. I still have my Dialga case from when BK I think was doing a Pokemon Diamond/Pearl thing when that game came out. (I use it for like loose change, small loose batteries, etc; very handy).
@@hemaccabe4292 I mainly write fiction books, but I haven't published any of them yet because trad publishers aren't interested in them and if I want to be an indie author I need to save up more money for an editor so I don't publish a book that ends up being horrible. I do write other things though like commercial copy for my job and that helps pay the bills.
I was surprised at the cost the last time I went to one. I remember going to one near my college back in the early 2000s and it really wasn't too expensive. Definitely wasn't $12 or more; might have been $10 at most, I think.
@@lorireed8046 true. Though what some people do is get a couple things of fries for 2-4 people, and that brings it down some. And I think a single burger sandwich is about 2/3 the price of a double.
I took my family there for lunch recently. $70 something dollars for the four of us for burgers, fries, and sodas. Not even a shake. Their burgers are good, but not that good. We could have had a better meal for less at a sit down restaurant.
“Like a daycare givin’ out germs” caught me totally off guard and has me SCREAM-laughing. I’m a preschool teacher in the Midwest and this speaks to my very soul!!
Agree with you on 5 Guys. Great burger and I love the extensive fries, but at what they’re charging, I would expect to have had a few cold beers included.
Yes! shout out to Hunts Bros Pizza. I was camping in the Blue Ridge Mtns and needed gas. Tired of my usual backpacker meals of ramen and instant potatoes I bought a Gas Station Pizza. It was DELISCIOUS . Thanks Hunt Bros.
At Waffle House we would love if you just tell us you’re fine with one plate. Makes our jobs easier. Because we have to do those dishes. The reason we do so many plates is because a lot of people are very picky about their food touching. And if you don’t want toast. Tell us. We may forget and put it on anyway, but at least you tried. Also, stop asking about our gluten free options. Everything gets mixed. If you have life threatening allergies, stay away. We can try to accommodate you, but if you don’t tip well and are a pain about it, it will only happen until we’ve run out of servers and/or patience. Thank you for coming to Waffle House, hope to see you real soon. P.S. We appreciate you stacking plates, but not if there is food still on them. And please don’t place your utensils in the jungle of your finished plate. Digging through the napkins to find the spoon before scraping off the plate is no fun. 😊
99% of the time I've had excellent service at Waffle House. But on one occasion my server asked if there was a problem with my toast. I said "Well you could probably toast it for me." He had brought out two slices of plain white bread. 😅
Yes! The Meximelt needs to come back and none of this "you can just add meat and pico to the cheesy roll up..." I'm not going to remember that when I'm at Taco Bell... I'm at Taco Bell...
Maybe. But, as I recall, they had good bit of cilantro. Made all the difference. Loved those things. And while we’re at it, cinnamon crispas cinnamony triangles of fried goodness. AND bell burgers yes, the original name. I will not bow before the pedantic police that made them change it to bellbeefer because it wasn’t a “burger” All you have to do is get some buns. And shout out to bacon chicken ranch chalupa. I mean, damn! Bring back olives… really. Apparently I think too much about Taco Bell.
You probably ought to add one about all of the fast food places need to stop chasing the visual trends for their buildings, I miss being able to identify places by their design.
I get a very small SS check and I have to budget very carefully. I used to have a fast food meal twice a month. The last time I went to Five Guys, it would have cost what I had budgeted for two meals. I left. Mickey's $1.00 chicken sandwich is almost $2.00. Waffle House has a good deal for $5.50. It would be as cheap now to go to Cheddars and the food is better.
I live in Louisiana and they can't make pizza worth a damn here. Hunts Bros is the only safe bet, since these other places let their dairy go bad. I love you Hunt Bros.
I feel most of those so much. Except the Firehouse one. As much as I love their sandwhiches (and being a vollie FF appreciate what they do) I don't eat enough there to earn a party box. I want one!! As for Cracker Barrel, when we're done eating, we have the oldest shepherd the youngest out to the car so we don't have to hear all the things they want while we pay the bill at the cashier.
We have a very good local pizza store in the next town and I'm going to try them today, thanks Matt. How do I know about them? They are very generous to local causes.
Yes!!! Taco Bell needs to bring back the Mexi-melt! Love those! In 6th grade, when I was in middle school, we had Taco Bell on Wed. We'd get bean burritos (meh) one week & the next, we'd get Mexi-melts. Those were the only 2 things we got (served with corn, a tiny side salad, & a dessert), but every other Wed, I always bought lunch.
I'm old school. Bring back the Enchirito. I do have a Taco Casa (a decent drive away) and can get that old school Taco Bell food, but the portion sizes are huge and I don't need to be eating that much anymore.
Along with the Five Guys rant...you can add CHI-half my income-POTLE. It used to cost $7 for a decently large "street style" burrito. It is now upwards of $15 for HALF the size 😮. Guess where I no longer eat?
BK has so gone the wrong way. It also annoys the heck out of me, if I want to get the double whopper and fry deal for $7.99, they can't figure out how to give me a soda too other than to get a second mortgage to pay for their hyper overpriced full price sodas?
Every time I see the Hunt Brothers Pizza sign in front of the local gas station, I’m reminded of the Texas oil millionaire Hunt Brothers, who tried to corner the world silver market in 1980. One of the brothers, Lamar Hunt, was one of the founders of the AFL, and was the owner of the Kansas City Chiefs, if I recall correctly.
1:34 - I said the same thing when I found out that Cracker Jack stopped putting toys inside -- it's now just a stupid code. What's the point? Same with cereal - no more toys inside. Grrrr.
The reason the Chicken Minis are on the breakfast menu and not on the all day menu is because it takes a lot of labor and space which a lot of locations can’t justify relative to how busy they are
@@jamesm568 the lines at our Chik-fil-A's around here are like that too. But, you'll have your food in & be on your way in less than 10 minutes. They have that drive-thru system DOWN PAT!
@@jamesm568That's because they don't want anybody to come inside anymore! All the ones around me are being rebuilt as multi lane drive thrus with 3 real parking spaces and minimal indoor seating. I hate it.
@jamesm568 CFA knows what they are doing. get in the line wrapped around the building. you will still get your food in 10 minutes. Don't do that at Popeye's, though, or you'll be waiting for 45.
Those of with small kids and grands would sure love a separate entrance…try going on a Sunday afternoon with 3 kids under 5 and having a 30 minute wait..we don’t anymore…now the family does a Sunday brunch at the homes of the people with kids ….so much more relaxing…maybe the food isn’t the same….but it makes the kids happier and the adults, too.
Meximelt and Chili cheese Burrito for real need to make a come back Taco Bell! And while we are at it. McDs, stop playing with my emotions.. either take away the McRib for good or let's have it year round. As it is, you Only get my business during McRib Season.. imagine if you had it year round. Though if you did, I am sure Taco Bells profits from me would slump enough to want to have a chat with me.. then maybe I could negotiate the Chili Cheese Burrito back from the dead.
Our local McDonald's line is often backed up into the street. Every time I see it I think, "Why are all of you willing to sit there like that? McDonald's isn't even that good anymore."😂
I agree with everything, you said! And while we’re on the topic of McDonald’s, they need to lay off this notion of parking spots to wait for your drive-through order.
Last year at Mickey D's I got an adult happy meal but they didn't give me a toy thing that was supposed to come with it. I was so annoyed. It was just more expensive than a normal meal with nothing changed.
