and tried the "chicken fries" at Burger Kling.

They were okay, they weren't as "golden brown", but when's the last time that you got a product at a fast-food joint that was EXACTLY as shown on the picture?

Anyway, they are only strips of chicken breast in breading. Other words, chicken tenders but skinnier.

Yeah, "COQ ROQ" or some sh%t.  The "King" looks like a damn manequin(sp?)/horror movie prop.

If you only knew what they did to make them look like those pics.   The food in those pics is typically unfit for human or animal consumption, and at times would be unfit for insects.  

I was present for a photo shoot for the menu of the restaurant I used to work for.  The woman smiling in the picture as she prepared to "take a bite" of the chicken had to constantly reapply her mascara because the fumes were making her eyes water.

I've heard of what they use.  I really can't remember.  If I did, I wouldn't post what they did use.  That is disgusting.  Why TF they can't just take pics of the actual food I don't know.

Anything from blow torches to cook the surface but not the innerds, leaving it nice and juicy (this isn't that bad ince I like red meat rare, but chicken )  to formaldehyde and laquers.

When I cooked we made some damn good looking food that tasted good too, but most of the people working in fast food don't have the work ethic necessary to do a good job.

The BK commercial I've found most disturbing is some gimmicky super hero group of fast food crap.  Stupid.  If you're core clientele is that childish, then you've got problems keeping it afloat.

We have one close to the office but the quality started sucking about 2 years ago. Also they had a young guy working the window with a cast on his right hand that was so dirty that it looked like he had been digging for grubs.

You know ever since BK started airing the comercal with that guy waking up and the "King" stareing at him in the bed with him, quite honestly I don't feel the need to eat there anymore.


I think I'll take my money somewhere else.

Their recent round of television advertisements has convinced me to never visit their establishments again.


Not that I would have anyway.

There was a cable special about this a few years ago.


For instance, they can't use real ice cream, because it would melt under the hot studio lights. What do they use instead? Crisco, scooped with an ice cream scoop.

Milk takes on a bluish tinge under some lighting, so what do they use? White school glue.

YUMMY!
