Restaurant Brands International = Toronto, Canada.
I’m done with that brand.

A bunch of years ago BK had a sandwich called big fish the works. It was a large fish patty on a whopper style bun. Just like a whopper except it had the fish patty instead of a beef patty. Best BK sandwich I ever had. They discontinued it. I have tried on occasion to eat BK food. Disappointed every time. Too expensive and sadly lousy. Just not worth the bother. The chicken sandwich at Popeyes is Ok. Just don’t get the spicy.

King Crab legs were $55.00 a pound yesterday at Publix...

The parent company used to be Pepsiso.

No. Pepsico had owned the much smaller Hot and chain. Pepsi owned the brands that are now part of YUM (e.g. Pizza Hut, Taco Bell)

The fish sandwich sounds like their long departed Whaler. I gave up BK after the came out with a Pride Whopper.

[Jonty30]

Not in Canada. It used to be part of the whopper.

arbys fish aint bad.

Seems no matter how high the prices go for fast food there is a long line at the drive up most of the time. Doesn’t seem to be a problem.

[Persevero]

Pride Whopper lost me forever too.

"I notice that cheese is no longer added to the Whopper in my area. I either have to pay another $1 for it or I have to bring my own."

Last time I got a Whopper, I paid $1.50 more for extra pickle and onions....it costs to 'have it your way' these days.

[Smiling Jack500]

There are long lines because fewer employees are working. Wait times are way up

[mylife]

I blame Tim Horton

Doesn’t seem to be a problem for idiots.

If I’m going to have to pay more for beef, you can bet your sweet ass that it will be beef I buy myself, and can make the size burger I want to eat, not the crap these fast-food places throw at you. We have three chain burger joints here: McDonald’s, Burger King, and Wendy’s, and I don’t go to any of them. I can make a better burger for myself at home, and I don’t have to waste gas sitting in a drive-thru, told to move up while I wait for my food to be prepared, or deal with someone f*cking up my order.

Because hamburger implies a certain type of meat would be my guess

I wonder is black rock is a Euphemism for Kaaba Stone. Who owns black rock anyway?

"King Crab legs were $55.00 a pound yesterday at Publix..."

Last month I complained about the price increase at a restaurant that I've been going to for years for their vegetable plate.
The check out girl said then be sure not to order the crab claws, "they'e $50.00 a pound now."

“I bought a few Whoppers over the last 12 months [Conveniently located next to a gas station that sells alcohol free gas].

Never realized that they were on a discount menu.”

USPS leaves those flyers that MOST people discard. BK always has the $5 Whooper, Fries and Drink COUPON on there. I have TONS because I do use them. For the past 6 months, it’s ALWAYS inlcuded in those flyers.

One of their coupons was 2 Bacon Cheeseburgers, fries and drinks for $4. Yeah, I used it more than a few times.

[cableguymn]

And you two lived happily ever after?

[Jonty30]

Timmies got rid of their jelly doughnuts. I have no reason to go there now.
