Are you rating the chain or the burgers? If the latter, BK and Hardee's are both much better. Whataburger too.

The burgers.  I can't eat BK any more.  They're burgers have a weird vegeburger texture to them.

I really wanted to like Whataburger, after hearing all the hype from Texans.  Nothing bad about it, but I just don't get the hype.

You can customize your burger so much is the main appeal.

That's another thing I hate - I'm not a chef. I don't know what works. I don't like choice - give me a menu <_<

:yes: I really hate it when I'm asked 10 questions when ordering something, with no option to go "you're the chef, you tell me what works and go with it".  That's not customer service to give so much choice, that's just abdication.

I don't know. If you really just have to have jalapenos on your burger that is a place you can go.

I usually get the BBQ chicken sandwich on toast myself.

Um that is not how it works. You don't fill out a questionnaire. You order a burger just like anywhere else...you just CAN ask to have it made is all kinds of weird ways if you want. Kind of unusual for fast food.

That was like trying In-n-Out at KAPapalooza in Vegas many years ago.  KAP and some others raved about it and I was like "meh - it's fine".
