All the Americans are like “Wendys taste like shit” and my immediate snap back is “That’s because America has terrible food standards”.
Like yeah you wont die if you eat the food but you don’t know if its bacon or 1-20 dead rats flat packed together. I hope they open one in Perth and its open at 2am every day
Naming rights aside, I doubt another shitty burger chain will see success in Aus. If you want a shitty burger, we got that covered in almost every town and suburb. Aussie typically want higher quality fast food.
You don’t even need to look at Carl’s Jr. Just look at taco Bell I’ve walked past it and am convinced it’s used as either money laundering or a tax write off. There’s never anyone there.
Nobody is in there because the food is beyond terrible. You don’t get cheese for your taco, you get lettuce that has a dusting of cheese in it. It’s dumb as hell.
You’re kind of not wrong. Collins Foods have just written of a $36.7 million impairment against the Taco Bell business, with Taco Bell stores posting a same-store sales decline of 4.8 per cent for the year.
I tried a baconator once 15+ years ago in the US. It was advertised as having 10 rashers of bacon on it! I had to know for myself. I obviously bought fries and their signature Frosty (thickshake) too to get the full experience.
I learnt three things that day:
Americans call the streaky bacon bit a rasher. So they're about 3cm by 10cm, so not as hedonistic as imagined.
a manufactured food that is 1/3 fat has a surprising amount of structural integrity.
people dip their fries in their thickshakes.
I only ate salad for days afterwards. We really don't need Wendy's or even just another shit-tier burger place like them.
Ohh man you’re missing out on a great taste experience, the saltiness the chips pairs well with the sweet and creamy flavour of a milkshake, dipping chips in soft serve icecream is a great treat as well, especially if you get some of that fudge syrup.
Yeah it’s a hotdog and ice cream chain. I wonder if they’ll have to change the name similar to Hungry Jacks because Burger King was already a restaurant when they came over here.
There’s no longer a wendys in the Northern Territory so maybe they have gone under. If that’s the case I’m sure wendys US would be able to buy name rights and go with it.
