The BK's in my area love to leave onions out all day. I got tired of food poisoning {belching onions} and haven't been there in years. The most disgusting experience at a BK was 22 years ago when I stopped in for a whopper, regular burger, fries and a coke to take to work for supper. I opened the burger and fries up to eat immediately and the burger poured ketchup and mustard all over me. The fries were half frozen literally. But the real surprise awaited me when I got to work and had consumed my coke. I opened the lid to pour water onto the ice and a dead fly was laying on top of the ice.
I called the store and told the manager what happened. He said I'll give you a free meal I told him that I would not eat food from there again even if he paid me and I was calling the health dept. That store was well known for hiring illegals.
Sometimes I’m pretty hungry when I leave the office but there is only one fast food restaurant open since the McDonald’s on the corner is no longer 24 hr, and it’s a Burger King that unfortunately serves up poor quality food late at night. Stopped there a few times and even ordering a special didn’t ensure freshness. Dried out, barely warm burgers. So anymore I just get O rings with the sauce to tide me over till I get home. I do miss having the occasional Big mac or Mcdouble. As a kid I remember the fries being good but I haven’t bothered with the limp, dry and flavorless substitute for years.
Ugh and what you described makes me want to check everything over before I eat it. I used to be quite paranoid eating out and would have to inspect the meat and whatever but my family would sometimes make fun of me, roll their eyes or made comments like stop being paranoid or whatever so at some point I guess they convinced me it wasn’t normal and I stopped lol. I think it’s a wise thing to do again because you really never know, and it’s better to take a few moments of caution than to eat half a cheeseburger before you realize it’s under cooked, or notice that fly after you’ve ingested it’s waste (sorry :)
