    Hmm, Hec it sounds like you need to get away and have lunch with friends as much as I do.

    How is it that every burger thread at the Mego Museum ends up with us going out to eat? I'm free, Sharry, give me a buzz.

    I feel bad about the whole Sandy thing too...but my hernia just didn't let me travel...I couldn't risk it.

    You kinda know me a little bit, Sharry...I'm just not a giddyup kinda of a guy...I'm not a very spontaneous person...it takes me a while to get going...but I'll come through...you'll see...lol.

      Its got to be a whopper, I just cant taste the meat in a big mac, to much crap in it, the dressing just drowns everything out. Burger king disapeared here for about 6 years, and only came back in the last 2, not many of them around. Domino pizza is also making a come back here, after Id say 8 years of the market.

          Whopper - no pickles or onions. Cut in 1/2.

            Ok. I've seen a couple now who need to have the Whopper cut in half. Why? Is it too big for some to handle. Just wondering.

            I'll be the first to admit the size of the patties in a Big Mac is not what it use to be. I do end up tasting more bread than meat now.

              .
              I'm sure my reason is different from everyone elses, but when it comes to eating (especially something I like a lot) i'm a pig.

              I would cut a whopper in half so I can shove more of it in my mouth at once.

              Like Homer Simpson, I basically eat like a duck

                Truly hard pick between the two. I think if the Big Mac made its patties back to the old size, that would be my pick. As they stand today; I would take a Whopper over a Big Mac. Honestly, now that I think about it; it has been so long since I have had either that both would taste like heaven to me. The only fast food item I have had in the past year or so was the Angus Burger and it was fantastic. I generally stay away because I have been at a healthy weight for a couple of years now and feel great. I know I could live a little every once in a while but I haven't had any big craving for it so better just to stay away.

                  Lettuce too it seems.

                        NONE! Rather have a good burger from a small business.

                            I like them both, but it all depends on my mood. The Big Mac has the edge, but they aren't as good as they were like 30 years ago. My absolute favorite burger of all time is from a place in the little town I grew up in. They call it the Big Mike after the former owner, and it has four patties, two kinds of cheese, lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles, bacon, and a slab of Burger's country ham. They have to hold it together with a plastic knife sticking through it.

                              Although I prefer the Double Quarter Pounder with cheese over the Big Mac.
                              Now were talking. Quarter pounders are may favorite of the bunch. Not much for whoppers.

                                I like Big Boy's version of the Big Mac

                                They actually claim they invented it and McDonalds ripped them off
