I can't believe you enjoy Wendy's fries. They have to be the WORST damn fries I've ever had. ALWAYS soggy (and usually cold too). Blech.

I've only had it a few times and the experiences widely varied. The first time out, it should have been called Mustardburger. Subsequent visits where they're told to ease back on the 'tard have been better.

I commend their cutting edge approach to the ketchup packet. I've been wondering for decades why more places don't do that. Same goes for the styrofoam cup and the rat-turd ice. Each is a hallmark of efficiency (although I don't know whether the styrofoam is easier or harder to recycle than a thin plastic cup).

My local Wendy's usually gives me two packets when I ask for a big handful. I then ask for more, and they give me two more. I then say something to the effect of come on, a big handful please, which means they may give me as many as four more. Depending on how annoyed I am by this point, I'll either resign myself to having to mix warm packet ketchup with cold refrigerator ketchup once I get home (and swear to myself that this is the time I'm finally going to call the corporate headquarters about this foolishness, but I never do...) or I'll keep asking for more until I've got at least eight packets.

I usually have two Biggie orders of fries in my bag, and their first instinct is that one packet per order equates to a large amount. It's like the window attendant is being paid by how much ketchup is left over after their shift of something.

Amazing. This is probably why those kids on YouTube threw their drinks in through the drive-thru window.

I seem to recall this when we ate it in Jax with 4.5

seems mine was swimming in mustard.

Back in Miami, it was Royal Castle.

the royal castle on 125th and 441 closed awhile back. the one on nw27th ave & 79th St is still going strong. i ate there probably a month ago.

i took some royal castle to TGM's house a long time ago, but don't seem to recall his opinion.

i like the royal castle, but can't say it's the best i've had. i'm loyal to the royal because it's still one of the "old time" unique miami places that has survived.

anyway, back to what-a-burger.

do they still have the fish sandwich, the what-a-catch?

I don't get all the Five Guys love. Sure, it's a good burger and a cut above drive-thru tripe but it's no worldbeater. Their fries suck assholes and I don't give a fuck where that day's potatoes originated.
