I only check from a journalistic standpoint. I so rarely eat this stuff that I feel like I can indulge myself without the guilt that should come with clogging my arteries and taking two months off my life. Might as well take up smoking!<BR/><BR/>I've never had the non-Loaded Steakhouse burger but I'm a BK burger fan. Probably my fave fast food burger that's readily available here (no White Castles in the Balto region) but I recall the meat on the one I had was thin and dry. I finally got around to trying the Angry Whopper and was again disappointed in the overall execution but at its core was a tasty, meaty Whopper patty so I can't really complain.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07527634771122333837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13266616.post-7420710737892772032009-02-03T02:01:00.000-05:002009-02-03T02:01:00.000-05:00I had a regular Steakhouse today at BK and it was ...I had a regular Steakhouse today at BK and it was pretty good. I could actually taste the meat and I liked it. Then I got online and checked the fat and calorie content. Yikes!

When I first saw the posters go up in the windows, I couldn't believe it. The whole concept just sounded wrong. Those cooks in the BK test kitchen must be smoking some serious crippy to have come up with this fast food freakshow of a sandwich. Obviously, I found the thing inedible, but what bothered me most was their promoting it as a burger topped with a stuffed baked potato. Spreading a layer of instant mashed potatoes on top of cheese and bacon slices does not replicate the taste or texture of a hand-scooped, hand-mixed twice-baked tater. And I didn't detect any sour cream in the mix. Terrible. What this Abominable Burger of the Idahoans reminded me of most were the gross-out concoctions me and my friends used to come up with during grammar school lunchtime. Things like dipping pizza into chocolate milk, spreading mustard on an ice cream sandwich and, come to think of it, putting instant mashed potatoes on a hamburger! Too bad we eight-year-olds didn't know about copyright protection back then. Anyhow, back to the BK BK.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13266616.post-91311527736175406722008-07-19T11:32:00.000-04:002008-07-19T11:32:00.000-04:00I don't like this one, but I do like the one with ...I don't like this one, but I do like the one with the onion thingies and lettuce tomato and mayo with A1 sauce. But let me tell you about the ultimate burger.<BR/>The other day my wife and I went to T.G.I. Fridays for something to eat. I had never been before. They have a burger with all the fixings, bacon, cheese and a slice of deep fried provolone! It's like a big, flat cheese stick. It was amazing!Douglas A.
