1 month agoI mean, I HATE McDonald’s with a passion, but I’ll eat there over BK all day, every day. That rubbery patty that tastes like it was drug through an ashtray? No thanks. Both are terrible but I’ve eaten at McDonald’s 10-15 times in the last 20 years? BK once. And it reminded me never to eat there ever again. Last time I ate at Hardee’s, their new char broiled burger reminded me so much of Burger King that I won’t eat there anymore, either except for breakfast. Their breakfast is hands down the best breakfast in all of fast food.
That’s partially true. They use dehydrated onions but their buns and meat are never dehydrated. So that leaves a lot to be explained. The “meat” is heavily salted and frozen, as well as having a lot of cellulose (“wood pulp”) in it. The waxy paper wrapping also has a lot to do with it not degrading, as it makes it harder for bugs to get to. If you left a McDonald’s burger outside without the wrapper, better believe it’ll be mostly gone within a day or two.
