A REVIEW OF BURGER KING JANUARY 19, 2022

 Burger King. What? Another fast food restaurant? You must be a fast food lover? Well, yes and no. Yes, because the cost is reasonable, it can satisfy hunger and you do not have to cook. Am I right? I see heads bobbing up and down. No, because after a while, you get tired of eating hamburgers and pizza and I think there is not a lot of nutrition in these foods. Am I also right on this? Come on nutritionists, say something!

Before I proceed, let us have a little history of Burger King. Burger King (BK) is a multinational American chain of hamburger fast food restaurants, based in Miami-Dade County, Florida. BK was founded as Insta-Burger King in Jacksonville, Florida in 1953. In 1954, 2 franchisees, David Edgerton and James McLamore purchased it and renamed it Burger King.Whopper became the BK signature product in 1957. As of December 31, 2018 it has 17,796 outlets in 100 countries, half in the United States. 

Back to my review:

I bought a family special which consist of 3 whoppers, 3 Junior whoppers and 3 small fries. Cost was $13.76 including a 6 % tax. Not bad? Yes. It was cheap. How come? Coupon! Do you not buy anything without a coupon? You said it. Coupon! Coupon! Coupon! Don't leave home without it! That is why I have quite a bit of coupons at home and in my purse! Wow! How about that? Ha! Ha! Ha!

Well, how was it? The whoppers were good, as usual, hamburgers with tomatoes, mayonnaise, lettuce, a little slice of onion and pickles. Pickles were too sour for me that I had to remove it. I think I remembered the whopper being so much bigger and more tastier. When? Probably many, many moons ago? Ha! How come you do not want to say the year? We will know that you are ancient? Ha! Ha! Ha! Oh my gosh! Stop it! Why are you grilling me? I am the reviewer! Please keep quiet. Yes, madam. Anyway, have you heard the word inflation? Everything is expensive nowadays, so stop complaining. Let me get back to my review. 

The Junior whopper was not as good. It is smaller with the mayonnaise and mustard. I ended adding tomatoes and lettuce on it to make it better. I wonder if they forgot the mayonnaise, lettuce and onions? The french fries were good, but it could have been more crispy. What do you expect with $13.00 hamburgers and fries? Plus if you want a made to order hamburgers and fries, make it yourself! That is sooo true. That is why I have an indoor grill, except it takes time to make the patties and grill. But you are so right, homemade hamburgers are better and tastier. Except when you buy it, you do not have to clean up afterwards. True. To buy or not to buy? That is the million dollar question! Oh, well. 

Take care. Until next time.

Things That Happened And Is Happening!!!

It is already March! Spring is here! Hip! Hip! Hooray! Not sooo fast, kiddo! We just had freezing rain last night and prediction of snow for Sunday! Yikes!!! Will winter ever end??? I thought we will have an early winter because the ground hog did not cast a shadow! Do you believe in that nonsense?? Not really!! Oh, well....mother nature is teaching us how to be patient! Patience is a virtue....is it not???

Did you know that March 4 is pound cake day? I never knew about that until today! Why was this made into a day? To probably help the bakers and the stores so they can sell pound cake!!!! Commercialism is the name of the game!! Whatever, it is sooo good, I do not really care! So, guys and gals, go out and buy some pound cake and add some more inches to your waistline!!! Who am I kidding??? I will probably go and get some pound cake! I wonder which one is the best? I have not had one for a long time! Just make it! It will probably be better! But it also take time! Just make up your mind whether you are going to make it or buy!

I did not know that TSA do pat downs now on people getting off from Amtrak train. It happened last month in Savannah, Georgia.It was also an intrusive pat down on kids and adults!! Goodness, gracious why do the government allow TSA to keep on molesting kids and adults with their pat downs??? Pretty soon, it might be in the grocery stores, the banks, the malls etc?? Then, we, the citizens will get used to it that we would not mind it anymore! These people are playing with our minds!!! They are gradually getting us to be a yes man so their hidden agenda will be embraced wholeheartedly by all! Am I right? Comments, anyone???

Did you all know that a Net Neutrality Act was passed on December 21, 2010 by FCC? What is this about? It gives the government the ability to regulate the internet and any interstate communication they choose without warnings! Ay...ya...yay....Isn't this what happened to the other dictatorship countries before it crumbled?? There goes our freedom of speech! It seems our government is losing it! They want complete control of everything and are they winning?? Only if the American people do not wake up!

State cuts! With the state cuts, the governor is trying to get the people's money...the children, the poor, and the seniors! This has really become crazy! Some government officials of one state are Awols! They did not want to vote so they fled to another state! Is that a smart move or a bad ass move on their part? I am sure that there will be more states that will follow because of what the new governors are planning which is completely ridiculous, crazy and outrageous!

Did you know that there are a few states that does not have income tax? They are Florida, Texas, Nevada and Alaska! Alaska, I heard even gives money to people every month for staying! Can you imagine living in Alaska??? They can have it...it is tooo cold! Brrrr!!!!!
