I don’t mind the chili. Like it over one of their baked potatoes (haven’t had that in a couple of years - I guess they still have it).

Made with yesterdays hamburgers I’ve heard, LOL.

Spicy Chicken Sandwich. That’s my favorite there.

Wendy’s is a disaster of a company. Extremely liberal and they hire freaks. Slooooooow service, too.

Sigh. These people really do not understand McDonald’s business model. Hint: it’s not just about selling food, it’s a about selling food to acquire real estate. And they have A LOT all over the world.

“Competition is good. The market, not FReepers will be the judge”.

That’s right.

LOL BK’s spicy nuggets are just as good, and they are $1.49 for 10.

It is. It’s on those websites “Avoid Ordering These..” lol

I’ll stick to real American breakfasts: cigarettes, coffee and donuts.

Yes, in today’s busy world, breakfast on the run is, I think, gaining in demand. Smart move I think.

” Hint: it’s not just about selling food, it’s a about selling food to acquire real estate.”

I agree but it doesn’t explain McDonald’s inside of Walmart, airports and other leased locations.

Ditto in my part of Western NC .
Packed with regulars daily .
Food is fresh vs local Mcdonald’s which is dirty , slow, and cold plastic food .

Carl’s JR “Sunrise Sandwich” - a Sausage McMuffin clone, but toasted on the broiler - was a superior sandwich.

They axed it. Boneheaded move. Last thing I want for bfast is a soggy, smashed croissant with something resembling breakfast in between the halves.

The best thing McD did for itself was going to real butter, as their sausage/egg biscuits are the best thing around. They started to actually TOAST their muffins too.

But McD apparently never signed on with a polling firm who could accurately portray the market.

If Wendy’s nails a biscuit recipe & offers biscuits & gravy superior to what’s in the kitchen-sized can that’s used by everyone else...

They’ll kill McD’s breakfast profits. imho

Hardee’s is fine, but I miss Biscuitville since I moved back home to Florida.

Krispy Kreme and a Coke, for me.

But my closest Krispy Kreme closed. :(

However, it became a pretty good chain Mexican FF restaurant.

Has anyone tried the breakfast crunch wrap from Taco Bell? I just saw a commercial for one and it looked tasty. Of course, food in commercials are nothing like what they serve at their stores.

I really like BK ham, egg and cheese crossanwiches. And they’re cheap. I can get two, some tater tots and a coffee for $3.00 with a coupon which are plentiful.

There’s a new Panera just down the road. They have a couple or 3 breakfast sandwiches that look good in the menu. I will definitely try those out. Haven’t eaten at Panera’s much, but what I had was very good.

Carl’s Jr. Is much better than Wendy’s.

We had a Burger King in Katterbach, Germany. I was stationed there for three years. I can’t eat it anymore.
