I love Wendy’s. The best fast food I’ve had yet The promotional menu that rotates seals it for me. Pretty much every offering is just on point. Like a Michelin star pot head made it.
I work at Wendy’s, without actually eating their food all that much, I’m not the kinda guy that compares or complains, I just like food, but I am getting strangely into this. Rootin for the home team
Y’all do this comparison and Wendy’s doesn’t get their best offering, THE BACONATOR, included negates the competition...should’ve done Dave’s Double vs the Quarter Pounder & Baconator vs Big Mac.
I agree. The baconator definitely has the same popularity as the big mac compared to daves juicy. I never even had it and now I want to. The baconator imo is so much better than a big mac too.
The fact that Link is giving points for something else that's not even being judged is crazy lol. Rhett should just give an extra six points to Wendy's bc their ice cream machine always works
Especially considering they didn't try Baconator which is infinitely better than any Mcdonald's item, if you give bonus for McGriddle then how do you not do the same for a Baconator
Yeah, and they compared Wendy's value chicken sandwich against McDonald's weak response to a modern chicken sandwich. Should have compared to a McChicken
If I had a nickel for every time I had to pull in a parking space after going through the drive thru at mcdonalds to go and get something they forgot.. And wendy's has upped their customer service game, they are a little closer to chic fil a.
Big facts. I've literally never had a messed up order from Wendy's. McDonald's has messed up my order at least half a dozen times in the last year alone.
Not only do we need a blind taste test for these so we can get a more accurate response but it is so much funnier watching them trying to eat things without their sight.
Wendy’s pioneered the creation of the 99¢ menu in 1989, 9 years before the Burger King Value menu and 14 years before the McDonalds Dollar menu. They’ve always been price conscious
Wendy's by far has higher quality food over McDonald's. When I was in the business my Wendy's spent on average 26-28% on food cost versus the McDonalds down the street that spent around 16%. Unfortunately for Wendy's it comes down to execution. With higher quality comes more difficulty in reproducing the higher standards that Wendy's sets. For McDonald's it's a lot easier to produce same low quality taste from store to store customers expect.
I love the part where they specifically avoided the McGriddle so that it would be a fair comparison, but then Link went ahead and added points for the McGriddle.
Here's something to consider: everyone I know who has worked at McDonald's never wants to eat there again, but all the people who worked at Wendy's wouldn't mind eating there again.
I worked at Wendy's for 3 years and I had never thought about the fact that when putting it into the frosty machine it's just basically a giant bag of chocolate milk that we pour in until Link said it tastes like a yoohoo.
Link: putting too much on a burger distracts from how good the burger really is… Also Link: everything they put on the big make really pulls it all together.
the first rule of GMM is to ignore anything Link has to say about pretty much everything. I don't think he's ever said anything I've agreed with about food.
I dont eat at fast food often, as I am surrounded by great affordable eats. But when I do get fast food its always Wendys. So in my mind they'll always number 1.
Should be Baconator vs Big Mac Dave's Single vs Quarter Pounder The Baconator and the Big Mac are signature sandwiches, and the Dave's single/double/triple and the quarter pounder/double QP are just regular burgers. Much better comparison if you ask me
@@HazeZeus You’d be correct, mostly. If fresh, McDanks fries are better. Anyone who tells you otherwise is impervious to actual chemicals that make you feel that they’re better.
@@HazeZeus McDonald’s is just overhyped because it’s the most wildly known fast food chain pretty much in the entire world. But damn Wendy’s can make a good ass burger
Proves that the baconator breakfast and burger are too strong of competition to the point you don't even mention them and that's Wendy's pride sandwich
It’s worth noting that McDonalds heavily discounts their food prices for combos, and also has more specials. So while individual menu items are more expensive, it’s ultimately cheaper to eat at McDonalds.
I feel like wendys got done an injustice here, the baconator should have gone up against the big mac, and the daves double should have gone up against a double quarter pounder. also, for the breakfast side of this, i will agree with you guys on that match up, but, you could have gone mcgriddle against the breakfast baconator...though i feel that may have been unfair for mcdonalds, seeing as they dont really have an offering even remotely close to it...but i avoid mcdonalds at all costs, wendy's is by far a better experience and so much more tasty!
I need to see a rematch between these two fast food giants for this competition. Including their two best breakfast items the breakfast baconator against the sausage egg and cheese mcgriddles, the baconator against the quarter pounder with cheese and bacon, and a lightning round with all of their dipping sauces. Maybe even include the side salads they offer.
They honestly need to eat this stuff in like... the parking lot between two of them right next to eachother so they're getting it fresh, not cold after an hour in traffic.
This. I feel like the stuff they had would of course give McDonalds the edge. As much as I like the McGriddles, I'll take a Breakfast Baconator all day everyday. Also, I feel like Wendy's food just tastes fresher than McDonalds.
I do not get mcgriddle hype. It's syrup with eggs which is one of the most disgusting flavor combinations ever. Thr best breakfast item at McDonald's is the sausage mcmuffin with egg hands down
Wendy's Spicy Chicken Sandwich is a top 3 fast food item for me from all fast food places. Nothing from McDonald's would even be in my top 20 probably.
Right? Cuz when I think Wendy's Signature, the first thing that comes to mind is NOT the Dave's Double. That's just the default sandwich. Compare that to a double quarter pounder, sure, but not a big mac.
Link " We didnt do McGriddles or McMuffins because we wanted to compare Apples to Apples" Also Link "Im giving it an extra point because of McGriddles" Although hes the same guy who thought a McDonalds burger is better than a Wendys burger so theres that lol
Also, were not going to use the McChicken for the chicken sandwich comparison AND we think that (despite the fact McDonalds has chocolate shakes) an OREO MCFLURRY is the closest comparison we can make to a Frostie.
@@egperez31 Because they’re using Wendy’s spicy chicken sandwich. Comparing it to the McDonald’s sandwich that they chose was a good comparison because if they did the McChicken then they would need to do the Wendy’s crispy chicken sandwich which is $1.29 and isnt as good as their spicy chicken sandwich. The spicy chicken sandwich from Wendy’s in comparison is $4.89.
This should have been blindfolded, I think Link loves McD so much that he’s bound to rate them higher with nostalgia thrown in. I haven’t ate from either places in years but that Wendy’s burger looked way better and tastier.
As a McDonald’s worker I knew they messed up when I saw the regular crispy packaging as opposed to the spicy crispy packaging that they were actually testing for
I've had McDonald's new spicy chicken sandwich and it has a nice spicy taste. Compared to Wendy's spicy chicken sandwich I'll take McDonald's. For chicken nuggets I'll take Wendy's. I prefer their breading over McDonald's nuggets breading.
@@thhutton it all depends on the time of day. You probably got the sandwich at a time where the fryers had just been cleaned and happened to order when someone who actually likes their job was working
@@thhutton both restaurants have a lower cost spicy chicken sandwich and a deluxe spicy chicken sandwich where the chicken quality is higher and they got the deluxe one from McDonald’s but the low end one from Wendy’s ):
People like McDonald’s because it’s iconic. Which is a fancy way of saying that they’re so famous that they convince you that their questionable food decisions are good or intended
@@Zramy Orr we like it Better? If I want an authentic food I’m not gonna get fast food. Wendy’s food is almost always chewy and they don’t have as good of a menu
Link: “We didn’t go with the McGriddles or McMuffins so we could do an apples to apples comparison” Also Link: “I’m giving McDonald’s extra points for the McGriddle” Sometimes I really can’t stand him.
I don't mind because that's how I choose fast food half the time too. Wendy's is the easy choice except when I'm craving McDonalds and can't explain why 🤷
Yea, I am a big fan of both Wendy's and Mcdonalds (nuggest included). That said, a Mcdonalds nugget must be eaten with a sauce. A wendy's nugget is good enough to stand on its own.
The "Spicy Crispy" from Mc Donalds that you had was actually the regular Crispy Chicken. I work at a Mc Donalds, and seeing you guys talk about "spicy Crispy" and seeing the regular Crispy Chicken wrapping, made me giggle xP
i used to work at wendys & i’d like to say ? it was so clean like i never looked at any food item being made there like “ eww that’s how that’s madeee “ ... it’s honestly normal 🥲
You going even higher than me on that. I avoid McDonalds. I'll go to EVERY other fast food place before i go there. My top is actually wendy's. My favorite is the Spicy Chicken, and theirs looks pathetic to the ones we get here.
At a certain point they're just being aholes imo. Like if your food is better than just be better. Putting down the competition via 'roasting' is something edgelords do.
whenever I see them rank something I personally like it gives me a better perspective on what they consider to be "good," and they never fail to be completely opposite to my tastes
You just helped it make sense for me 😅 I live in the Midwest but haven't eaten McDonald's or Wendy's in years, was shocked at how expensive it had gotten!! Definitely must be Cali prices
Agreed! Once Link scored Big Mac over Dave's I knew they were going to let Mc Donald's win. You would think they would rig it for the company that has a better social media game if they need sponsors.
Because Wendy's consider their iconic burger to be that one, not the baconator. If they tried the baconator, then McDonalds also has a bacon burger to compare. Quarter pounder with bacon.
breakfast. Without breakfast wendy's would have won. And I do agree with that. I wouldn't get breakfast at wendy's but I love mcd breakfast. For lunch and dinner though, wendy is clearly superior.
I think that they should be given them without knowing which is which! They don’t necessarily have to be blindfolded. But if they are given them on a plate and do not know which is which, I think it will be much more fair. Since you guys said you read the comments and so many people have recommended this, I think it’s a great idea to implement.
Wendy's > Mcdonalds every time. Mcdonalds wont even let me put bacon on a bigmac. Wendys lets me put bacon in my frosty. Oh that hurts that they didnt put wendys flagship baconator vs the bigmac. Baconator absolutely DESTROYS bigmac.
I feel like their relationship is at least half Link explaining his thinking and Rhett saying 'i don't get it but ok.' and just moving on

@@PacificEgg definitely metalocolypse
Not even close but lol
@Pacific Egg Bingo
Thumbs up for knowing GWAR!
I realized through all of this that it's much cheaper to eat at Wendy's
i know right, and I always thought wendys was more expensive...because it's so much better
It’s worth noting that McDonalds heavily discounts their food prices for combos, and also has more specials. So while individual menu items are more expensive, it’s ultimately cheaper to eat at McDonalds.
@@rob-merica bruh 😂 try the 4 for $4 combos at wendy's and you're in for a treat
@@illdoitlatermom Oh I know. More like $8 for 8! Haha. I was comparing regular traditional menu items.
I thought the same thing! Wendy’s definitely used to be the more expensive one. Mickey Ds has gone kookoo.
The development of Dirk and Patty's relationship is a beautiful sight to behold
Stevie's "ouch" when they both said 4 for the McNuggets was so sad, I felt her pain. Lol
Right? I love McDonald’s nuggets. I think Wendy’s tastes like my nuggets I have in my freezer.
Burger King is the place for nuggets. They'll give you 100 for like 10 bucks.
That was a travesty. McNuggets are perfect
@@Sheridantank exactly
I feel like wendys got done an injustice here, the baconator should have gone up against the big mac, and the daves double should have gone up against a double quarter pounder. also, for the breakfast side of this, i will agree with you guys on that match up, but, you could have gone mcgriddle against the breakfast baconator...though i feel that may have been unfair for mcdonalds, seeing as they dont really have an offering even remotely close to it...but i avoid mcdonalds at all costs, wendy's is by far a better experience and so much more tasty!
Factsssss I genuinely was upset they didn't put the Dave's double against the double quarter pounder lol
stay mad plus L plus ratio
Wendy's does a better job with the bacon burger over Mcdonald's.
@@jakedenis8499 Your ratio has failed dear sir
Yea like, have you had a Big Mac, it’s 5 items on a burger, sauce beef bun lettuce and onions, it’s not even that good
I wanna see you tweet your results, tagging Wendy's in the tweet, and show Wendy's response.
Can we like this more because this truly needs to happen! Then have them sponsor the episode to do a full menu taste test.
Wendy's will officially be a sponsor then tweet that MCDONALD'S won't even claim thier sponsor prize but we will! But sassier then that.
They're gonna roast them into a new menu item
I genuinely like Wendys way way more than McDonald's but I can eat either
Wendys is much better than macdonalds
I need to see a rematch between these two fast food giants for this competition. Including their two best breakfast items the breakfast baconator against the sausage egg and cheese mcgriddles, the baconator against the quarter pounder with cheese and bacon, and a lightning round with all of their dipping sauces. Maybe even include the side salads they offer.
Oh and hash browns vs. seasoned potato wedges
They honestly need to eat this stuff in like... the parking lot between two of them right next to eachother so they're getting it fresh, not cold after an hour in traffic.
This. I feel like the stuff they had would of course give McDonalds the edge. As much as I like the McGriddles, I'll take a Breakfast Baconator all day everyday. Also, I feel like Wendy's food just tastes fresher than McDonalds.
@@caleb8659 If GMM cared about the accuracy of their scoring it wouldn't be GMM >:P
I do not get mcgriddle hype. It's syrup with eggs which is one of the most disgusting flavor combinations ever. Thr best breakfast item at McDonald's is the sausage mcmuffin with egg hands down
I think Wendy’s shines the most when you consider their speciality items
the new jalapeño chicken sandwich is the best sandwich i’ve had from any fast food
That pretzel bacon pub burger is phenomenal
That bacon pub is my go-to now lol
I love their jalapenos bacon burger but it's not always on the menu.
@@stanleyhudson2720 bruh.. I AGREE with that statement.. that Spicy Chicken Jalapeno Popper Sandwich is delicious
Link I think is more nostalgic for McDonald's, especially with the way he was waxing poetic about it half the time
I'm really glad the comment section realizes how much better Wendy's is than Micky Ds
anyone else watch these half asleep and then have to rewatch it later 😂
And I’m not ashamed to admit this lmao
Haha I’ve done that before! Lol I might do that now, it’s 4:40am... but I got to get the gym to stay awake so maybe not.
YES! Glad you understand
I have insomnia and watching GMM helps me softly cackle myself to sleep. I probably haven't watched many entire episodes.
exactly havent slept yet i am due for my bed!
I’m almost positive they ordered the cheaper spicy chicken sandwich from Wendy’s on accident
Same. I was like, "That is 100 percent not their main chicken sandwich."
Agreed
Wendy's Spicy Chicken Sandwich is a top 3 fast food item for me from all fast food places. Nothing from McDonald's would even be in my top 20 probably.
The cheaper Wendy's sandwich usually doesn't come in the foil wrapper
Agreed because Wendy’s spicy chicken sandwich is the best thing on the menu.
How do you not but the Baconator in the signature round?
Right? Cuz when I think Wendy's Signature, the first thing that comes to mind is NOT the Dave's Double. That's just the default sandwich. Compare that to a double quarter pounder, sure, but not a big mac.
Because the signature burger is the Dave’s single ,double or triple ..
The fact baconater wasn't considered in the competition is actually a criminal offence. A felony has been committed.
Link " We didnt do McGriddles or McMuffins because we wanted to compare Apples to Apples"
Also Link "Im giving it an extra point because of McGriddles"
Although hes the same guy who thought a McDonalds burger is better than a Wendys burger so theres that lol
Also, were not going to use the McChicken for the chicken sandwich comparison AND we think that (despite the fact McDonalds has chocolate shakes) an OREO MCFLURRY is the closest comparison we can make to a Frostie.
@@egperez31 Because they’re using Wendy’s spicy chicken sandwich. Comparing it to the McDonald’s sandwich that they chose was a good comparison because if they did the McChicken then they would need to do the Wendy’s crispy chicken sandwich which is $1.29 and isnt as good as their spicy chicken sandwich. The spicy chicken sandwich from Wendy’s in comparison is $4.89.
Based on the comments, Y’all need to do these blindfolded
Do it!
Yes I was hoping they would be blindfolded for this taste test.
Yeah, we gotta start making these blindfolded
This should have been blindfolded, I think Link loves McD so much that he’s bound to rate them higher with nostalgia thrown in. I haven’t ate from either places in years but that Wendy’s burger looked way better and tastier.
he would know anyway
Wendy's win every time for me. Their ingredients is just much higher quality.
I need to reevaluate my feelings for you guys after this.... How could Wendy’s not win??
Breakfast.
In a normal world the nuggets and the big Mac would have gave McDonalds a huge lead too.
SPOILERS
@@Sebastianimania729 why are you in the comments before finishing the video
1. Breakfast
2. Fries
3. Nostalgia
And once again I am reminded that I will never turn to Rhett and Link for food suggestions.
It's like they live in an alternate universe...
Am I the only one who doesn’t like McGriddles? Soggy, heavy in your stomach, overpowering. And McDonald’s nuggets are disgusting, too.
@@oliminator yep. Only one
@@oliminator not the only one
@@oliminator I can see why someone wouldn't like them
Link’s scores for McDonald’s were definitely influenced by his nostalgia for it.
TOTALLY agree
Yeah... to be fair that's the only reason I like mcds 😅 nostalgia is powerful lol
U Fr crying over this
They did the same thing with KFC.
Wendy’s should have won. So much better and fresher than McDonald’s 🤦🏻♀️
It’s opening in my country for the first time soon, what do you recommend? 🌚
Rhett said it best for McDonald's: "Engineered". Which is why my heart will always belong to Wendy's.
As a McDonald’s worker I knew they messed up when I saw the regular crispy packaging as opposed to the spicy crispy packaging that they were actually testing for
I was going to say I love the new spicy one but they said it didn’t have sauce and I know it definitely does!
I've had McDonald's new spicy chicken sandwich and it has a nice spicy taste. Compared to Wendy's spicy chicken sandwich I'll take McDonald's. For chicken nuggets I'll take Wendy's. I prefer their breading over McDonald's nuggets breading.
Props to the mythical team member who was actually able to obtain a McFlurry for this episode
If they added points for the McGriddle that they didn’t even try they should’ve subtracted points for McDonald’s ice machine always being down
Wendy’s allllll the waaaay. Quality is just so much better.
i love how wendy’s symbol is a little girl, but their twitter account person is a straight beast!😂
Wendy is a grown lady now
He’s the “I’m a snake” guy. I wouldn’t say he is a beast
@@heavymetalbassist5 No, she stayed in Neverland, she got someone to pretend to be her in real life, but the real Wendy never grew up.........👀
Is that guy fr the social media manager for Wendy’s 😭😂😂
Why do you imply that little girls can't be straight beasts tho?
I dunno what's going on at the wendy's where they got their food, but I've never seen a pair of wendy's sandwiches look that sad. :(
THat spicy chicken looked nothing like the ones I get. The spicy chicken sandwich and the baconator are my 2 favorite fast food items.
@@thhutton it all depends on the time of day. You probably got the sandwich at a time where the fryers had just been cleaned and happened to order when someone who actually likes their job was working
Agreed!!
@@thhutton both restaurants have a lower cost spicy chicken sandwich and a deluxe spicy chicken sandwich where the chicken quality is higher and they got the deluxe one from McDonald’s but the low end one from Wendy’s ):
Wendy’s generally tastes more authentic and fresh
People like McDonald’s because it’s iconic. Which is a fancy way of saying that they’re so famous that they convince you that their questionable food decisions are good or intended
McD's, like the guys said, isn't the food they say they are ...it's something else.
If i get a burger from McDonald's i get q quarter pounder. Those are made fresh and you can definitely taste the difference
@@Zramy or they just like McDonald’s lmao
@@Zramy Orr we like it Better? If I want an authentic food I’m not gonna get fast food. Wendy’s food is almost always chewy and they don’t have as good of a menu
Link and Rhett are like fast food; the surface is highly processed. But I can't stop watching; also like fast food.
I happen to be a big proponent of the Wendy’s spicy chicken sandwich and I for one have never seen such a sad chicken sandwich from them lol
It's a solid 9.....bad review!
Extra Mayo
Link: “We didn’t go with the McGriddles or McMuffins so we could do an apples to apples comparison”
Also Link: “I’m giving McDonald’s extra points for the McGriddle”
Sometimes I really can’t stand him.
Link is the personification of Chaotic Good!
link is the type of person you want to punch right in the face
Meanwhile Burger King is at the window looking in with tears in his eyes.
If y’all want to compare the McFlurry to anything you should do a Dairy Queen vs McDonald’s video and do a McFlurry vs blizzard challenge.
This didn't feel like a taste test and more like a nostalgia test...they kinda admitted that but still
I don't mind because that's how I choose fast food half the time too. Wendy's is the easy choice except when I'm craving McDonalds and can't explain why 🤷
“Have we fallen for the marketing?” Lol y’all admitted it with the nuggets
Yea, I am a big fan of both Wendy's and Mcdonalds (nuggest included). That said, a Mcdonalds nugget must be eaten with a sauce. A wendy's nugget is good enough to stand on its own.
@@maxwells9994 100% agree
max wells when they were trying the nuggets i literally said to myself “mcdonald’s nuggets are just a sauce transporter”
So breakfast and fries are the only good thing at McDonald's, makes sense.
The "Spicy Crispy" from Mc Donalds that you had was actually the regular Crispy Chicken. I work at a Mc Donalds, and seeing you guys talk about "spicy Crispy" and seeing the regular Crispy Chicken wrapping, made me giggle xP
i used to work at wendys & i’d like to say ? it was so clean like i never looked at any food item being made there like “ eww that’s how that’s madeee “ ... it’s honestly normal 🥲
Dude yes!!! We cleaned constantly and left it spotless at close I loved it.
i worked at mcds and i can say the same, it all depends on location and the workers
@@sarahestes2240 yes ! it was so clean & i loved being able to say WENDYS is CLEANNNNN & i did it 😌
@@gaboonviper101 most def , i never worked at mcdonald’s so i was just speaking for my wendys
Well except the chili 😅
At first I was like, “how has that couple NEVER tried a Big Mac before?” And then I was like, “WAIT. I have never tried a Big Mac before.” 😳
That's what happens when your born after the year 2000
+Pacific egg. Or just don't like McDonalds burgers
@@skweebwellington If I was Canadian I would rather eat a Harvey's burger. Harvey's makes your hamburger a beautiful thing!
@@PacificEgg I was born way before 2000, but thanks 👵🏼
I’m more invested in Patty and Dirks relationship than any Netflix series I’m watching..
So many people in the comments being salty because two men rated McDonalds better than Wendy's. Grow up.
I will never understand people's love for McDonalds, like it's fine but I've never thought anything on their menu was above a 7
💯
Have you tried the fries?
You going even higher than me on that. I avoid McDonalds. I'll go to EVERY other fast food place before i go there. My top is actually wendy's. My favorite is the Spicy Chicken, and theirs looks pathetic to the ones we get here.
I would trade my entire family for a McChicken
@@nigelcymon7743 lol honestly
i swear wendy's have the best online roasts of any company ever.
At a certain point they're just being aholes imo. Like if your food is better than just be better. Putting down the competition via 'roasting' is something edgelords do.
whenever I see them rank something I personally like it gives me a better perspective on what they consider to be "good," and they never fail to be completely opposite to my tastes
Y’all straight did an injustice to Wendy’s
Seeing “beast” in that font on Rhett’s shirt just makes me think of Beast Boy from Teen Titans
THANK GOD I'm not the only one!
i though of eddie hall
I was wondering why all the prices were so expensive and then I realized they live in southern California lol
You just helped it make sense for me 😅 I live in the Midwest but haven't eaten McDonald's or Wendy's in years, was shocked at how expensive it had gotten!! Definitely must be Cali prices
It's even more expensive up here in Wine Country. Cali prices are just nuts
Rhett and Link are multi-millionaires. They can afford it. ;-)
I’ve never been angry with their scores till I saw their burger scores... WENDY’S BURGERS ARE 1000000X BETTER THAN MCDONALDS
Agreed! Once Link scored Big Mac over Dave's I knew they were going to let Mc Donald's win. You would think they would rig it for the company that has a better social media game if they need sponsors.
Agreed. Big Macs used to be great, but have never been the same or as good since they got rid of the heat lamp system in the 90s.
Can u also tell me why and Mcdonald's Breakfast Are better than wendys Btw I Disagree
Wendys spicy sandwich and a baconator wouldve evened the playing field or given wendys the W
how did you not pair wendys baconator vs the big mac. i feel like the baconator is their iconic burger :/
It is. I'm willing to bet they did that to skew the win towards mcd
This 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Plus Link already wanted McDonald's to win so his scoring shouldn't even count
@@dogsandcatsrule3856 The fact that he rated something that wasn't even being judged... yeah...
Because Wendy's consider their iconic burger to be that one, not the baconator. If they tried the baconator, then McDonalds also has a bacon burger to compare. Quarter pounder with bacon.
"Oh my Coal Chamber" That's something I never thought I would have heard in a episode of GMM 😂
I am glad someone else caught that i was dying at that
I am so baffled by how McDonald’s won! Wendys is clearly superior in every area except the fries
breakfast. Without breakfast wendy's would have won. And I do agree with that. I wouldn't get breakfast at wendy's but I love mcd breakfast. For lunch and dinner though, wendy is clearly superior.
Micky Ds dominated the breakfast category
I think that they should be given them without knowing which is which! They don’t necessarily have to be blindfolded. But if they are given them on a plate and do not know which is which, I think it will be much more fair. Since you guys said you read the comments and so many people have recommended this, I think it’s a great idea to implement.
Wendy's > Mcdonalds every time.
Mcdonalds wont even let me put bacon on a bigmac.
Wendys lets me put bacon in my frosty.
Oh that hurts that they didnt put wendys flagship baconator vs the bigmac.
Baconator absolutely DESTROYS bigmac.
The only internet relationship I'm excited for... Dirk and patty.. Congratulations!
Link's hair is looking mighty nice this ep
Thanks
