I'll Always Love McDonald's Instead of Burger King
I live in neighborhood with many restaurants and food markets. It just so happens that I live in between a McDonald's and Burger King. I do eat fast food, but I've limited myself to visit fast food restaurants once or twice a month usually, because as we all know too much fast food isn't healthy for us.
However, if I were given a choice between McDonald's and Burger King; my honest answer would be: McDonald's. McDonald's has always been my number once choice when it comes to fast food and next is Wendy's.
I've always favored McDonald's because they have a wide range of items to choose from on their menu and the taste of their food is good.
For many years of eating McDonald's, I always order number 2 (double cheeseburger meal) and it consisted of two cheeseburgers, fries, and a drink.
During my high school years, I ordered the number 2 a lot, but it's funny how I never really gained a lot of weight from it. As I've grown up I've eaten less from McDonald's and I don't order the number 2 unless I'm super hungry.
I've tried the fries from Burger King and Wendy's and sadly, none of them ever appealed to me. I love McDonald's fries the best because it's small and crispy.
I have friends have worked or work in McDonald's and before they serve the fries to you, they will always sprinkle bits of salt over your fries for extra and better flavor. I love it when they do that.
McDonald's breakfast brings me back to memories of how my family and I used to go to Canada to visit my relatives and we would make a rest stop to eat breakfast and I always want to go to McDonald's especially for their deluxe breakfast. Despite the grease of the hash brown and everything else, I love the hash brown and eggs the best.
Burger King has never really appealed to me and plus there was an incident I've had at Burger King where I found a feather or hair was sticking outside of my chicken fry. It was dark, clear, and so obvious. I never ate their chicken fries again or stepped foot inside.
Do you prefer McDonald's or Burger King?

Um Chick-fil-a for the win!
Do not like BK fries. If I go there I get the onion rings instead. Wendys fries are good enough.
in the past, mcd's fries were delicious because they were fried in beef fat, so the potatoes tasted of uber awesome meaty-ness. but they were forced to switch to another oil, so now, they just put beef flavoring when frying, so that the fries could still get that distinct yummy taste.
mind you, this ended up offending lots of vegetarians.
i dunno if i like mcd's or bk more, my taste buds don't discrimminate, hahah.
I like BK because I love onion rings and the fact that they offer veggie burgers. (I've only seen a McVeggie offered in Times Square?) ALSO their Hershey sundae pie is great.
But I do LOVE how McDonald's does chicken. Chicken McNuggets rock my socks. BK chicken tenders make me kind of sad. XD
agree McD > BK
Hmm.. I like happy meals. but the whopper is better than the big mac.
I'll always love real food more than both of those.
burger king's meat tastes better, but I have worse experiences at BK and its more expensive. If someone else is buying I will always pick BK though.
I HATE WENDY'S NEW FRIES!
Burger King always makes me sick.
I never eat any fast food, with the exception of McDonald's fries. They're seriously delicious.
MD burgers sometimes make me queasy. But their fries are the best (besides Bojangle's season fries, which are in a category all their own)! I also like their salads, chicken, coffee, and hashbrowns.
I like McDonald's fish burger. I always felt it was the most "healthier" but I am probably kidding myself.
Burger King is not awful. I like their food too but you are right, they do seem to have less choice. & their fish burger was not good at all.
And McDonald's poutine remains the best poutine I ever eaten. but as many would point out, their fries are drenched with chemicals and everything. They are too perfect to be real. But A&W, BurgerKing's fries are not all the same appearance & some of them are "burnt" so it gives the impression that its not entired covered by chemicals. (true? I do not know.)
love mcdonald's harsh brown. nowhere (fast food) can beat those.
I love McD's WAY more than I should admit. I could eat there all the time, though I don't.
Now I really want some McD. I wish it wasn't such a far walk. I always have to settle for Wendy's if I want fast food. I usually skip it and just get lunch truck food. Yummier than both!
@YourOuterCritic@xanga - Yeah, I prefer BK sometimes for the fact that they offer onion rings. And I prefer their breakfast.
@bittersweetromantic@xanga - *shudders* I can't eat McNuggets anymore, as good as they are, after seeing Food Inc
Between McDonalds and Burger King, I'd have to pick McDonalds--the food is more consistent. The last few times I went to Burger King, the food seemed old and dry. I might be a minority, but I can't say I like the fries at McDonalds though. It might be because of all the battle scars I have from handling the fry baskets while working there. And the fact I like thicker cut fries.
I am in LOVE with McDOnalds. I don't eat any of the meat stuff, because it scares me, but they have SO many good things on their menu...and their french fries are SO GOOD.
Burger King's french fries are gross and soggy. THey always smell worse inside, for some reason. Until recently they had only standard items on their menu and even now all they have is cheap imitations of McDonald's things.
@yuminmybelly - Screw the vegetarians. If they get that offended, they probably shouldn't be eating at McDonald's.
Burger king trumps mcdonalds any day. I used to work at McDonalds...I know too much :P.
I agree! McDonalds rocks!!!
I love McDonald's! Especially their fries! And the monopoly game hehe. I don't care for Burger King. The only thing that is good is the original chicken sandwich.
This post makes me want to have a heart attack @.@
