You know, I remember when you got a BK burger and it tasted like it had kissed the flame. Slightly greasy, hot, taste of a little salt and pepper, tiny charred bits crunching under a delicious soft bun with crisp lettuce and fresh tomato. The last 3 times I tried it - I get the same thing, pretty much every time - Whopper with no cheese, diet Coke, no fries - its been just like you said. Like its been sitting in a pan of water. The burger is kind of a warm, soggy mess. I haven't been there in a couple of months. I doubt its changed back to what I used to know. The burger above in the video looks just like the last Whopper I had. A warm soggy mess.
Who remembers when Whoppers used to be huge??? That is why they were called Whoppers. They also used to taste better, more flame broiled taste. This new BBQ burger is a joke. Just because you throw lousy spicy BBQ sauce on something, doesn't make it BBQ.
I've experienced these lukewarm burgers ... Have they forgotten how to cook or keep them warm. I've heard some burger joints are reheating precooked burgers in a M/W. sheesh!
yea that commercial sux.....can sum1 plz tell how to post a thread on this thing...i had a bad situation yesterday and would like to gt other opinions on my next step..
Is the Burger King guy in the commercial? I can't watch it if he is because he gives me nightmares.
You mean the "king" with the mannequin head, half wit smile and glassy stare? He creeps me out too (partly because he looks like a guy I dated many years ago). DH would laugh and nudge me when those commercials came on. I never eat anything at Burger King.

That would be the guy. My husband and son always tease me because I have to cover my eyes when one of those commercials comes on.
