Title: The Baconator
Post by: The Sceneman on October 14, 2007, 06:54:04 PM: It has landed on my shores... is it worth picking up? The advertising got me, the slogan: 'You'll be back' is fucking ingenious

Post by: Phoenix Dark on October 14, 2007, 07:20:43 PM: I was surprised how BIG it is. It's pretty good
Title: Re: The Baconator
Post by: BlueTsunami on October 14, 2007, 07:24:42 PM: Its good but don't be deceived by how perky it looks in ads, its pretty much one large greasy hamburger. Its delicious in a "Fuck I haven't eaten anything all day I'ma about to pass out oh shit theres a Wendy's!" kind of way.

Don't get it if your looking for a regular meal (as in will fill you up normally since you've had 2 square meals beforehand).

Title: Re: The Baconator
Post by: bluemax on October 15, 2007, 05:24:27 PM: Its not that big, and not even the biggest burger or the worst burger on the Wendy's menu.

Honestly I found the Baconator to be pretty tame. The Carl's Jr Breakfast club sandwich came closer to giving me a heart attack than the Baconator.

Jack in the Box has had far more offensive hamburgers in the past, and iirc Burger King has a few candidates as well.

JitB's Sirloin Burger advertised at nearly every commercial break (and quite delicious) is over 1000 calories and 60 grams of fat. By itself. It's basically the realization of the Subway "Let me get the Love Handles combo, bootysized" commercials.

There's a Red Robin near my place too, haven't been there in a long while

Post by: MrAngryFace on October 16, 2007, 11:35:28 AM: demi: Jack n the Box's ol Ultimate Bacon Cheeseburger had 2 quarter pounders crapload of bacon and swiss cheese and onion mayo stuff. I felt like DYING whenever I ate one, so I havent eaten there since.

Do you guys have any Blimpy Burger franchises? It may be exclusive to Michigan but damn, their burgers are enormous; I only eat there once or twice a year because the food is so greasy that you can feel your arteries clogging up. My biggest problem with Wendy's before the Baconator was that all their sandwhiches were pretty damn small compared to advertisements; Burger King is awesome cuz they allow you to customize and make your meal an actual MEAL. Quad stackers omg

I only eat hamburgers from Five Guys these days.

Yeah, when I'm one piece away, that's when the repeats start flooding in like crazy. And what's more insane is that I have a million-dollar piece. :'(

Five Guys is pretty good, but it's no Red Robin.

uh, don't you get how this works? Boardwalk is insanely common so that they can string you along in to eating more of their shitty food. You will never find a Park Place. Park Place doesn't even exist.

other than that, the triple patty hamburger at Wendy's rocks.

Double cheeseburgers at mcdonalds rock ass too

The baconator was a huge let down to me. It didn't impress in size or flavor.

QFT

I posted a picture of the thing on this site when it was new.

Look at yourself, wasting time "researching" when you could simply cite the Miles Trahan Burger Experiment. Don't let all those years of his self-sacrifice be for naught.

Pffft, unless you were wasting time doing REAL studying, but it's funnier to assume that you were researching tasty burgers.
