The fast food wars are heating up. We are living in a golden age.
This is great. I like their grilled chicken stuff okay enough. And their new bacon is an improvement (though still quite lacking as bacon goes), but anytime i'm in a mcdonalds, seems like at least 2/3 of the people order strictly off the dollar menu and nothing else, even though they shrink the dollar menu down to the size of an A5 piece of paper and put it off to the side hoping nobody will see it. People know what's up, if you can't get cheap food at mcdonalds then what good is it? Their $5 and $6 burgers are 'okay' but are they really worth 5x or 6x a mcdouble? I think not. The McDouble is a great value for the price. Glad they are expanding on the value stuff.

Bacon hot n spicy looks good. I love spicy chicken burgers so I'll always go for them whenever someone makes them.

It will never get as big as it did in the 80's. Back then most FF places had salad bars. SALAD BARS!

LATIN, MATRIPEDICABUS, DO YOU SPEAK IT
Likely smaller than it appears. The McChicken isn't that big after all.

This so freaking much.
Nothing will top the beefy crunch burrito though. I don't care if they've taken 20 years off my life.

This will increase Mcdonald's stoner customers.

The first one looks horrid. The other three look much better. Except lose the pickles. Pickles suck and ruin everything.
Tomatoes are one of the most expensive toppings you can put on a sandwich/burger and cuts into the profit margin. That's why only the big sandwiches get tomatoes. Up here in the Northeast at Taco Bell regular tacos don't even have tomatoes on them anymore and if you want them you have to upgrade to "supreme" tacos.
Ya, and I bet a ton of people pull the thing off too letting it go to waste. Not to mention they make burgers a lot more sloppy. Bite into the damn thing and it goes shooting out the back end or drips tomato juice everywhere.

The Wendys bar was insane! Quiznos doesnt even have a pepper bar anymore. Contemplating in making a thread on how the Q has gone down in quality.

The one Quiznos in my area closed down a year ago. The franchise is losing stores faster than Bennigans last decade.

I got excited when I saw Southwest Burger in the title, was hoping for a Green Chile Cheeseburger (though I am sure they wouldn't have used the correct kind of chile grr) and was very sad when apparently that means just tortillas and bbq

Bennigans is slowly mounting a comeback.
Quiznos couldnt compete on price with Subway, so now they are in no mans land with worse food than before but still slightly more expensive than Subway.
I hear you man. Looks delicious, but I've cut out fast food and soda and couldn't feel any better. Interestingly, when I do rarely eat fast food now, it makes me nauseous. My body is just not used to it anymore.
Not to mention they treat their franchisees like pieces of shit.
