This is a segment where I will give some opinions about a food-related news article. Today, I'm giving my thoughts on some very popular discounted fast food items.

Wendys Bacon and Blue Burger
I found it very interesting that the reason it was removed
was that, it was too messy. Toppings can slip out of burgers pretty easily. I
really like blue cheese but I wouldn’t order this because “steak sauce” is
usually just A1 sauce which I don’t want. That flavor profile takes over the
whole burger. I think that was more of the issue than the cheese crumbles
falling out. The bacon has enough smoky flavor that the steak sauce was not
needed. Blue cheese, bacon and steak sauce are all strong flavors that may
have been too much for customers at that time. Bring this back with a blue
cheese sauce to replace the steak sauce.
McDonalds Scezuan Sauce
I did not even try to get this. I am not going to take the
time to get a sauce that is only available for one day. I just find that type
of fan culture obnoxious. I like Rick and Morty but it’s entertainment, not a
lifestyle. The way certain fans reacted when the sauce was gone was completely
abhorrent. None of the staff should have had to deal with any sort of abuse.
It’s just a sauce. I feel the same way when makeup companies only have limited
stock. I will buy things when I'm ready. I don’t think companies, especially fast
food needs to sell anything that limited.
Burger King Angry Whopper
I used to get this burger. It’s one of two reasons why I
stopped going to Burger King. I loved this!. Spicy and creamy sauces with fried
onions? I can't resist. This would do even better now. People want more spice
and flavor. Crispy onions are always welcome for me on most sandwiches. If the
bacon makes the sandwich “too expensive” take it off but fast food places need
to step it up with the hot flavor. If Wendy's paid attention and is bringing
spicy nuggets, others need to follow suit.
Popeyes Big Easy Chicken Bowl
This could do well now because of how popular KFC famous
bowls are. However, it needs a few different options or tweaks. I don’t need
gravy with red beans and rice. You should be able to build a bowl. The dirty
rice they sell should be an option. My ideal bowl would be spicy fried chicken, dirty
rice and cheese or red beans and rice. Popeyes also have mashed potatoes so why
wasn’t that an option? Their gravy is just okay. I also don’t see how sour cream would be a
good option. I wouldn’t even ask for it.
Burger King Cheesy Tots
These can stay gone. The cheese flavor tastes like fake
Velveeta and they were never crispy enough. Burger King is very weak in its
potato game. The fries aren’t crispy enough either. I can’t recall if there was
a sauce with the tots. I need tots to be hot and crispy every time. The onion
rings are the better side but those can be a bit soggy too. Burger King needs
to focus on improving its core menu items and being more consistent.
