There're a lot of verbal hate crimes against hamburgers on this last page. I want you all to think about your actions and take personal inventory.

You want fries with that?

I love bacon, but I've realized it's a harm to a burger. It's not peanut butter and chocolate where the tastes compliment each other.

So I get bacon on the side, and enjoy the burger for the beef, and the bacon alone.

Holy shit. I've never wanted a hate button so much as after reading this post :^S

I tend to agree with this. I like bacon and I love burgers, burgers more so than bacon, but not necessarily together. There are all kinds of great burgers with lots of different toppings BUT if I had to choose one burger to have the rest of my life it would not have bacon on it and only a few classic toppings - American Cheese, Tomato, Onions and some sort of shack type sauce (Mayo/Ketchup mix).

A burger should have bacon, lettuce, tomato, pickles, white/yellow onion, mayonnaise, ketchup, American cheese, and black pepper on it. If you want to put some Tony's on the patty while you cook it, I ain't mad at ya. Sometimes I'll get gorganzola on a burger if I'm feeling freaky.

I literally quoted the person I was talking to.

Except you didn't. Are you in the trump administration? Enjoy your chocolate-bacon-burger.

Your hate doesn't match your sig. Why do you hate people who have better taste than you?

Bacon is overhyped in general, and is most definitely not an essential part of a burger.

Just as a heads up, if you think the CIA black-site prisons are bad, wait until you smell the American Bacon Council black-site prisons...

Panera has added "Rapid Pickup" to my local restaurants:

1. Order online
2. They put it on a shelf
3. You walk in, pick it up, and leave

Amazing take-out option when you're feeling antisocial

Use coupon/promo code SC3 for $3 off $6

Bad news chief, coupon expires soon (Sunday 12/3/17). I'll be ordering a few soup/salad combos this weekend.

I love bacon on a cheeseburger but...my cardiologist doesn’t agree, lots of veggie burgers for me the past few months. I did cheat & have one the other day though

Omit tomato, add salt. Other than that, perfect burger.

 

[Craig234]

Think I might have an in n out today (triple is much better than single or double, protip) because I'll be right next to it - no bacon.

Fuddrucker's is 150 yards from it, but just had that and sadly put my gift card both in an MRI and the washing machine, leaving it a total loss.

So Taco Bell sells Taquitos now. They're called Rolled Chicken Tacos and they are AWESOME! They come in a 2-pack, 4-pack, and I think a 6-pack box with 6 tacos:

https://www.tacobell.com/food/specialties/rolled-chicken-tacos-2-pack

2-pack macros: (without sauce) 220 calories, 9g protein, 9g fat, 25g carbs.

https://www.tacobell.com/food/combos/rolled-chicken-tacos-combo

You can choose 3 different dipping sauces: guac, nacho cheese, and spicy Ranch. The spicy Ranch is by far the best. I would rate these 10/10 with Spicy Ranch sauce.

The rolled chicken tacos are a bit bigger than the regular skinny Taquitos (where you get like, 400 in a box lol). They are also perfectly crispy, and not over or under-stuffed. Some taquitos have barely any filling in them, which is lame, but not these ones! They nailed the balance of crispy to filling perfectly & the spicy Ranch sauce is the cherry on top.

White Chocolate M&M's:

https://www.target.com/p/m-m-s-white-chocolate-candies-1-5oz/-/A-52272887

I'm not even going to bother with a full review. 0/10. These are awful lol. They taste like frosting in a shell...but not in a good way. Like...store-bought-cake icing in an M&M's shell. And they get worse the longer you chew. Yuck. Would not buy again!

Ya, I like them offering new flavors, but some don't work - I didn't like caramel M&M's at all. Peanut butter though, literally eating them seconds ago, great.

Dunno what to tell you, it's there. I'd guess you have Ns1 on ignore for some reason.

I assume so - at least we know what happened. I'd have thought it'd at least have some 'you have this user ignored' type message. (Thanks for posting it).

Caramel M&M's are a good idea in theory, but they don't work in practice because it's like chewing on a stained-glass window. It just gets...gritty as you chew it. Flavors so far:

1. Regular M&M's: Okay, but not as good as they were in the 80's & 90's when they tasted more like real chocolate. Plain M&M's just aren't as enjoyable to eat these days, although I do like them IN stuff, like a cookie.
2. Mini M&M's: (like in the small tube) Awesome because they are tiny & you get more chocolate in a mouthful than normal.
3. Peanut M&M's: Awesome.
4. Jumbo peanut M&M's: Good, but not as good as I thought they would be for some reason. Too much peanut to chocolate ratio, I guess.
5. Peanut Butter M&M's. Glorious.
6. Coffee Nut M&M's: Don't like coffee, never tried these.
7. Pretzel M&M's: Too dry inside, do no like.
8. White Chocolate M&M's: Taste like caking ice, yuck.
9. Caramel M&M's: The shell turns to gritty sound in your mouth, instead of dissolving.
10. Almond M&M's: Meh. It would probably taste better with a higher-quality chocolate like Dove. OR, and now I have an idea - if the almond was a crunchy candied almond, that would make it way more awesome!

I'm sure I've had some other flavors & combinations, but those are the ones I remember. Pretty much mini M&M's, peanut M&M's, & peanut butter M&M's are great imo

The crispy M&Ms were pretty tasty. I'm generally not an M&M fan (just "meh" when there are so many better candies available).
