I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that over the seasons we've been given a lot of other people other than Joe as well as from the other countries. And some of them are very bland. Specifically the people that replace Joe. Now the most recent one the woman I actually like but a lot of the other ones are so bland that actually made watching some of the episodes hard because they lacked personality. So when Harry comes back after we've seen somebody else we love him
I talked to Harry via DMs and asked him this. He said he was under the impression they were going for a serious tone in these videos, and after he found out they weren't he completely changed.
@@houseofscarn We don't have an equivalent. I think the holiday we have round that time would be Fireworks Night / Guy Fawkes Night which doesn't have a meal to it, just people getting hammered down the pub.
The reason the Chocolate Oreo shake doesn't taste correct is because the shakes are made with Hershey's chocolate syrup. Oreo is owned by Mondelez, not Hershey. The cookie bits in both the regular and the chocolate Oreo shakes are made with Oreo cookie bits which come in a blue bag and get a 10 day hold time. I used to be a manager at a Burger King. From my point of view, Burger King is not competitive with its shakes, but unfortunately the Taylor shake/soft serve machines can be a pain to deal with so I think there is a costly issue with that; they'd rather keep things simple and as inexpensive on their end as possible.
I'm not quite sure what you're talking about. Hershey's chocolate syrup does not have a bitter taste, but it is overwhelmingly sweet and artificial tasting; it tastes like fake chocolate.@@PapagenoMF
PLEASE NOTE: Funnily enough I work in Burgerking in UK as a store manager and love your videos. We do in-fact sell the whopper Jr and triple whopper on our menus in store but not around drive thru. It’s a weird company idea ! Thought I’d let you know : )
So if someone orders it in drive thru you tell them to come inside? As far as I know people know what they order and can order anything in the drive thru even if its not listed on the drive thru menu.
I'm loving this foreign exchange series next it's going to be the US exchanging with Japan than India. It's going to be amazing I want to try these other countries but damn I would have to go across the pond to do that lol
A lot of the things that aren't on the uk menu you can get by asking, eg the triple whopper, you can actually add as many patties to burgers as you like. Had to make a bacon double xl with 10 patties once. Also a lot of the things the american bk has are things we used to have but got discontinued like the oreo shakes
Yeah, the whopper jr and triple whopper used to be on the menu on the UK, but were removed. The bacon king they removed twice for some bizarre reason. They even used to sell the double quarter pounder at one point.
Burger King UK until the late 90's used to do a spicy bean burger and it was my favourite burger, used to order it all the time and I kinda miss it. I love a triple whopper, my order is always triple whopper with cheese, 2xheavy cheese and no onions. The chilli cheese bites rock :)
They did the spicy bean burger up until the 2010’s. I was disappointed when they got rid of it too, being a vegetarian. Their plant Whopper is pretty good though as far as fake meat goes.
A whopper with cheese is simply great, love the flame grilled taste. I still like a chicken royale over McDonalds chicken burgers etc. I loved the Spicy Beanburger, ahead of it's time. Also, they did do jalapeno poppers for a while years back, they were like crack when I worked there....PS their mini hash browns for breakfast were just as good also!!
French toast is very much a UK thing. Most cafes and breakfast places sell it. You can get it sweet or savoury. When I make it at home in Glasgow I have it sweet but my wife prefers it savoury. So without any sugar or syrup.
The US has the Rodeo King. It's just like the rodeo burger but bigger and they added mayo. It's no longer on the "official" menu but they have no issues making it if you order it. My local BK even still has it in their system.
Yeah, just secret menu hack a whopper to be like the Rodeo Burger. The Rodeo Burger used to be a secret menu hack before it was even on the official menu.
I'm glad Harry called it 'UK fast food bacon' to differentiate it from our proper bacon as we have some great bacon producers. The fast food stuff is always horrible and definitely should be crispy as Joe mentioned.
If i remember correctly the "Rodeo" burger was marketing tie-in for the movie "Wild Wild West" (starring Will Smith) which was released in the 90s... Well that was a the case with the UK anyway. The Rodeo was my go to burger in the UK. I Didnt even know they changed the name.
Bacon Double Cheeseburger XL has been my go to burger for years now, but in a shock twist the Covid pandemic forced my local restaurant to close and it hasn't reopened 😭😭😭😭 I am still super bummed about that.
In BK Venezuela we have a burguer called RODEO STACKER, which have onion rings, bacon, meat and stacker sauce, AND IT SLAPS. One of my favorite burguers of all time
Looks like Burger King stepped up their game in the UK. There were my favourite fast food burger place in the mid 2000s but they went downhill. I'll have to them again.
I go back on occasion to test as was my favourite then to. It has been improving again and last couple times was quite good. Still not as good as they where but I haven't had that cold unmelted added cheese got for awhile lately.
You might just have a bad restaurant of burger king one you tend to go to. City I live in has 3 burger kings last time I looked it up, might be more these days
Re Texas burger: Yes. I was born and have lived in TX my entire life. As a region, we tend to put mustard on our burgers. Also, although we are rightfully known for our barbecue, it’s less sauced and more dry rubbed. The dipping condiment known as barbecue sauce is not really our thing.
Chicken Royale with cheese is my favourite, however every so often you do get a crap one that is almost like eating mayo doused cardboard. I find you get better food if you go in and buy it at the counter, rather than having it delivered, or going round the drive-through . Our bk fries are terrible, always so dry. I used to be able to get a meal and swap chips for onion rings, but I think they’ve stopped it now. 0:30 😊
When it comes to fast food, I have the following opinion when it comes to the major nationwide chains: Burgers: Burger King, all day. Fries: McDonalds, no question. Breakfast: Taco Bell for breakfast, they have the best fast food sausage of the bunch.
@@itsDietrichyes they are. Dip some bread in egg, stick it on a frying pan that's eggy bread or french toast whatever you want to call it. My mum always called it "egg toast" so that's what I grew up with 🤷
I used to work for burger king and was a manager there . We used to serve the rodeo burgers here . We used to serve a chicken whopper and chicken whopper jr we also served a spicy bean burger we also used to serve milkshakes and ice cream and diddy donights and warm chocolate brownies we also used to serve chicken stripes back then it used to be five alive for kids meals drinks we also used to have a big king which was burger kings version of the big Mac
There was a short period of time where in the uk Burger King did southern fried fries, they were awesome. But their standard fries are poor compared to mcd’s fries.
I wonder if its because of "shrinkflation" because I remember when the "Eggnormous" Burrito came out, that thing was MASSIVE.. now its this tiny pauktry thing that will barely fill you up. And yes, their hash browns and fries used to taste better, now they taste of old grease, disappointment and sadness.😮
I know Australia probably won't be part of Food Wars anytime in the near future but i'd love to see our fast food places included. We dont have Burger King down here but instead Hungry Jacks, which is the pretty much the same thing but with a different name due to licensing/copyright reasons.
My BK order: Double cheeseburger add Lettuce tomato onion Value fry Value soft drink $5 and change total. Value meals are no real value. I prefer to have it my way.
The best thing, hands down that Burger King makes is the Original Chicken Sandwich. When it's hot and fresh, it incredibly juicy and flavorful. I don't know why it doesn't get the attention it deserves.
@joshchan2642 It's closer to chicken sandwhiches at mcdonalds than the mcchicken. More like an actual piece of chicken (probably not lol) than processed patty.
@@joshchan2642 not at all. It's not crispy and it's not thick. It's a thin, evenly coated cutlet that's deep fried. It is well seasoned and very juicy.
shame the spicy mayo wasnt avalible, that stuffs great. Not sure if its been suggested yet or not but seeing as we now have both Wendys and Popeyes in the UK I'd love to see a comparison
We used to have a 'long' rodeo burger in the UK. It was the same as the American one but in the shape of a Chicken Royale. I don't know why they dropped it.
I love how far harry has come, the early episodes he got rinsed for being boring but now i love him and joe equally
Idk why but I started of preferring Harry but now joe and Harry are equal
Harry and Joe are literally the best kind of ying and yang! I could happily watch a whole series of just the two of them exploring different foods.
I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that over the seasons we've been given a lot of other people other than Joe as well as from the other countries. And some of them are very bland. Specifically the people that replace Joe. Now the most recent one the woman I actually like but a lot of the other ones are so bland that actually made watching some of the episodes hard because they lacked personality.

I love the fact that Harry's British side is showing with his knowledge of princes dukes and archbishops.
I dunno, baron burgers/burger barons sounds like a great name for a chain... Wait, hold on, I gotta trademark this one 🧐😂
Meanwhile, Joe is all over the place.
You guys should do a foreign exchange of UK Christmas dinner and US thanksgiving!! I would love to see that

Humongous fan of food wars. Hope the series and variations of it keeps going!!!

He gotta try the teriyaki McBurger,it’s heaven in a nutshell.probably the best burger at all of the world’s McDonald’s.
Show the UK some love let them do the exchange, anyways they did have the buggest empire.
The 'Pond' is vernacular for the Atlantic. You would have to go across the Pacific to try Japanese and Indian food.
I think it’s really interesting that both said they preferred the fries from the other country better.

Eggy bread explains why my mother (English) made us french toast with marmite!
The one thing I wish they'd do differently with this concept is mic Harry and Joe up while the other one is trying food.
Amazing video editing skills! Great job Katya Kupelian!!!
Burger King in the U.K. used to do the Crossantwich, but they seem to have discontinued it a few years ago.
Woah I didn’t even know you guys switched it up, now this is epic 😎😎😎
Whopper is definitely not a regular insult in the UK. I've genuinely never heard anyone call someone that.
Same! Never heard that in the UK in my life
Yeah no
If you want common is suits they wouldn’t have
Spanner and tool are far more common
Also muppet but I’m not sure if that exists in the US
@@jmurray1110 yeah spanner, tool and Muppet I've heard lots of times for sure
@@ManchesterIsNotReal closest I can think is 'whopping' as in if you call someone something like a 'whopping great big bellend'

You guys should try to come to France to have a taste at our Burger King menu, which is quite good I have to say (Double Steakhouse ftw)
"You don't need that much meat, you need lubrication" - Harry 2023
No,meat should be the star,and should be dripping with cheese!
You two are the best. Should totally do a bit of a world food travel show.
A whopper with cheese is simply great, love the flame grilled taste. I still like a chicken royale over McDonalds chicken burgers etc. I loved the Spicy Beanburger, ahead of it's time. Also, they did do jalapeno poppers for a while years back, they were like crack when I worked there....PS their mini hash browns for breakfast were just as good also!!
You’re a whopper 😂
I prefer the Chicken Royale as well, but they've been adding way too much mayo recently. No idea why they have changed it.
@@debbee0867 they have an abundance of eggs, so they make mayonnaise with it and they have too much
French toast is very much a UK thing. Most cafes and breakfast places sell it. You can get it sweet or savoury. When I make it at home in Glasgow I have it sweet but my wife prefers it savoury. So without any sugar or syrup.
I've never seen it in England. Which part of the UK in particular? Is it a Scottish thing?
@Kjfletcher1985 had it quite often growing up in Wales. Assumed it was a UK-wide thing but it may be more common in some areas. I had mine savoury
@Kjfletcher1985 it's definitely all over UK. Some people might call it eggs bread rather than making it the proper sweet way.
I never had sweet French Toast, and will 'never' eat it either, savory is the only way that I will eat it. Btw, I make at at home.
@frederickmoller I used to only have savoury but when making at home I only add a little sugar to the egg mix. Helps the french toast get crunchier.
Foreign Exchange is the best! Love Insider Food!
The spicy mayo BANGS
I really like seeing the difference in food culture in different countries
Well, it´s NOT about the difference at food culture, it´s about international food chains ripping a customer off in a way he used to know :)
we need to get some episodes with german vs Usa would be huge i think its gonna be really different between those two countrys
I love these swaps.
The bacon double XL is my go to. It goes on offer from time to time on their app to
19:42 this is what my grandma use to make us and we ate it with ketchup. She would dip sliced up baguette into egg and just fry it on the pan
I really hope you do a Five Guys swap, so the UK bacon can be redeemed, although idk how much would be different apart from the milkshakes
Sure thing,cause what’s the point of consuming bacon if it’s wet and not crispy?
I never choose bacon in my takeaway burgers. They don't look appetising or taste great. It should be crispy bacon.
Omg, they *NEED* to a 5 Guys episode!
More food tours pls .. they are the most fun
That egg-normous burrito looks way smaller than it should be. Mine was massive when I got one when they were first introduced.
Awesome swipe joe and harry
10:01 they should call them Skeleton Raiders with the amount of skeleton fragments you find in them 🦷
They need to bring Harry to Texas so he can get to know some good Texas BBQ/Tex-Mex food

Hard to find a bk that does breakfast in uk
Spot on with renaming the junior to Prince, makes sense.
Why is this video so engaging
amazing video!
Excellent video
Burger King’s Big King XL/XXL was their best burger… Petition bring it back 🙏🏻
If they have stacker sauce like our Burger King does then they should be able to make it if u ask for it
The rodeo burger used to be a long burger in the uk, not been to BK in about 5 years now so must of changed stuff.
Oreo Cookie Shake is the best fast food milkshake you can get at a place that doesn’t specialize in shakes and that’s not named Culver’s
Chilli cheese bites are god level tier! Give them some respect,
Basically cheese balls but some cheeky spice has been brought to life?
Love these series can’t wait for more
Hey wait...why the heck is it all "junior" instead of "prince" anyhow? That's brilliant, BK needs to latch onto that idea! 👑
Best menu on burger king for me is chicken fries and nuggets aswell as Bacon King, they're so so good
