    Has anyone tried those new Chicken Selects McDonald's just introduced with that Buffalo chicken sauce?

    Sealed the BK vs. McD war instantly...they were heavenly.

    Founder of Wendy's Dave Thomas also is the person who opened the first Kentucky Fried Chicken franchise.

    We used to have a national company that actually competed with Mc Donalds a few years back. This was called 'Georgie Pie' and believe it or not but they specaised in pies. They made damn good pies. I miss Georgie Pie. Curse Mc Donalds for buying them out and turning all the Georgie Pies into Mc Donalds.

    I'm always amazed when i'm in Mickey D's or Burger King and someone orders huge meal deals then ask for diet coke for a drink.

    If I had to choose. Flame Broiled tastes better so BK.

    Then again if I pass a Taco Bell its a Grilled Stuffed Chicken Burrito and supreme Nachos and one of the new Green Mountain Dews. yummy!

    I'm pretty sheltered here, only got Macca's, Hungry Jacks (BK in poor disguise), Red Rooster and KFC. We have a Wendy's in town but it only does Ice-creams and hotdogs.

    I've worked in RR so I won't eat there, nkowing what it's like, I love KFC's Hot N Spicy chicken but it's not permanent like up in Queensland, I usually only eat the Bacon Deluxe from Hungry's and if I'm on a real health-inhibiting kick I only get the Quarter Pounder/Double Quarter Pounder from Macca's if I can make them get me a fresh-made one.

    But out of the two initially in question, and if I had to make the coice, I'm like many who've responded - Hungry's for the burger, Macca's for the fries.

    Their pies were disgusting! There were no meat at all inside them! The only good thing about Georgie Pie (apart from being a NZ thing, and competing with McD) was their playgrounds! :D

    BK stands well above McD imo. They offer much better quality food (atleast they do here in NZ), apart from their watered down drinks - but that's fine, as they have free refills which are great if you're really thirsty. Oh, and their icecreams are cheaper!

    We never go to MD's. We have even brainwashed our child into fearing the food from that place. The only fast food place we occasionally eat is Wendys. Unfortunatly we are very good cooks at home so really all of those places are equivalent to eating saw dust.

    If I'm going to eat junkfood I'd rather order a roasted chicken pizza from Domino's.

    Did you ever try their apple pies? Godsends I tell you! Godsends!

    Still, BK fast food will always be a step above Mc Donalds. However BK doesn't offer the whole Mc Cafe and salad things.

    But both are nothing compared to Wendy's.

    All of you can now stop bickering. I have arrived and, having eaten at enough fast food places to graft myself to my computer chair, can tell all.

    Burgers - Wenty's or A&W
    Fries - A&W or KFC
    Any Desert - Dairy Queen
    Full Meals - Burger King
    Speed - McDonalds
    Price - McDonalds

    But if you want artery clogging, life ending, mass heart attack quantity, go to McDonalds. In some locations they serve a burger so massive it is nameless. If you order a Double Big Mac, you get a burger with 4 patties. You can also add the feature double the beef, which was meant to be used on smaller burgers to upgrade them. This will get you the amazing Double Big Mac with double the beef. An astounding EIGHT patties on one bun.

    You want to off yourself slowly, this is the way to go.

    Of course, as of late, I have been watching what I have been eating. So I rarely eat fast food now. Maybe once a week. And then off the healthy menu.

    Georgie Pie was brilliant, if only because you could get food for only $1.

    Anyway, since reading "Fast Food Nation" I have neither set foot in nor eaten a thing from either MacDonalds or Burger King (shiver.....).

    I'll put my 2 cents in for Georgie Pie. $2 Seafood pies were my favourite. And nothing could beat the 95 cent steak and cheese.

    A Double Big Mac? With double meat?! Eight patties!?! :eek: Where in the world can you get THAT? Cause I'd like to get one. (Just to see it, not to eat it) That is a LOT of meat. Never thought I'd say this, but too much meat.

    McDonalds is the kind of food I just can't seem to eat. It appears they have salads though... BK, never got to try it in the first place. I mean, duh, I live in Belgium, let's say it's not on the country's menu... We, on the other hand, have 'Quick' fastfood. It's some Belgian hamburger chain that is only residented in... well... Belgium and France, and maybe Holland. I mysteriously like that chain and not the Mac. Must be the meat, although meat from the Netherlands is not meat of the highest reputation, if I may state this. Oh, well...

    If you want a really good fast food burger, Fuddruckers is the place to go. Unfortunately for some of you, they seem to only be located in North America.

    They aren't cheap, but the burgers, the buns (they bake their own fresh), and the fries are the best! Plus, you can top them in whatever way you like from the condiment bar that includes lettuce, onion, pickles, sweet pickle relish, hot peppers, salsa, ketchup, mustard, BBQ sauce, mayo, cheese sauce, etc. Just thinking of it is making my mouth water and my stomach grumble. :D

    If it comes down to choosing between the two big international burger chains, I'd have to choose Burger King burgers and McFries (and have done just that in the past ;) ).
