Had Taco Bell for the first time, last month, since 2020. They need a good lawsuit, too. Yikes.

Well what could their damages be to recover from this tragedy? $5 refund because the burger was smaller than they anticipated?

At the fast-food counter, I often (jokingly) ask, “Does #4 look like that picture?”

They laugh, too.

The Big Mac is also pathetic looking.

There are professional food artists who compose the pictures.

The Burger King is currently a fugitive from justice.

ENTIRELY INDEPENDENTLY...

A few members of my family on a recent road trip stopped by a Burger King to grab a bite, and told me later, with great disdain, that “a bite” was just about all there was to the burgers they grabbed.

To sum this up: BK is selling “sliders” as “hamburgers.”
Pretty much.

I like appropriately sized buns.

Neither undersized nor oversized.

The meat size is the issue.

I had a Whopper the other day which I haven’t had in years. Not impressed, even the onion rings weren’t good.

We won’t have room on the court dockets for millions of individual due process court appeals for criminal illegals because of the important burger crisis. Clear the calendars.

Watch the Supreme Court make a quick move to hear this and rule on it while we wait weeks more for the illegals rulings by district judges.

What a country.

this kind of shakedown by the plaintiff‘s bar is the original lawfare.

rather than attacking political opponents the objective is to extort wealth from the builders and makers in society.

nice wealth-creating socially beneficial business you got there. hiring people, paying taxes, providing goods and services to willing customers. Can’t have that! be a shame something happened to it.
