A traitor's review on BK


When I used to work at Dunkin' Donuts, my friends would squabble about what fast food
place was better, Mc Donald's or Burger King. For me, the choice had been obvious,
Mc Donald's, duh! What fast food could even compare to everything Mc Donald's offers,
tasty 99c menu, Mocha Frappe' and the slew of desserts. Loyal to Mc Donald's I would always be... We'll, after some time I decided, why not? Why not try the enemy's food? It's not like they could possibly beat Mc Donald's anyways.

So that's exactly what I did, it was 10:00pm and I had just gotten off of work. Hungry, cold, and exhausted, I looked for a beacon of light in the dark night. I saw
Taco Bell was open, Subway, but what I was really looking for was Burger King. I was nervous, if someone saw me, if they knew my feeling about Burger King, I would never live the shame down. I had to be cautious. So stealthy I roamed the streets, constantly checking my rear view mirror. I saw a white sedan behind me at one point, mimicking my every move, scared, I turned into a dark street. The sedan slowed at the light, but continued to go on.

I exhaled.

Finally, almost home I saw the red BK. I made one last check into the rear view mirror and then turned quickly into the lot. The turn had been so quick that my car started smoking and my tires had screeched in agony.

The horror.

After I stopped my beating heart, I checked the time, 10:30pm. The lot was empty and they seemed to be closed, but the glowing sign on the window said "open late." Relieved, I drove into the drive thru. The order taker's voice boomed thru the speaker, "Welcome to Burger King, how may I help you?" Freaked, I wanted to tell him to keep his voice down. He was trying to give me away, I just knew it. He mustve' known that I was on enemy soil. He might as well had placed a sign on my forehead saying that I was a traitor to the crown.. (get it? I was pretty clever here). My throat constricted as I quickly looked at the menu, cheap. Think cheap. I ordered the Hershey's Pie and the crispy sandwich. That would be enough. I drove up to the window and the order taker eyed me suspiciously. I checked my breath. It didn't smell like Mc Donald's, he had no proof! I paid my soul (food) to the order taker and drove off so fast, I was sure a cop was going to stop me.

Thankfully, none did. When I got home, I placed the food before me. Thanked the Lord for the food and that no one had seen me and also repented for the sin I was about to commit. The Hershey pie was glorious!!!! It was an ice cream, but not, pie but not, chocolate, but was. It was great! I could not believe how good the pie was especially because it had only been $1.39. One victory point for BK, then I tried the chicken sandwich which surprisingly was better then Mc Donald's Hot n Spicy. It wasn't too spicy, it was just right. I had also only paid $1 for this item. Satisfied, but guilty, I tossed the evidence in the garbage can outside. I had gone to the dark side (BK) and I would never go back...

:insert evil laugh:

p.s. I have tried the Whopper from BK, never will I do so again. The bun was the only good part of the sandwich, not worth the money, not worth throwing up and the constant runs to the bathroom to make mini whopper's. Avoid this burger. Maybe it was payback for my treacherous spirit, either way, avoidance is key.
