Wendy's deserves to go under.
Few other places have hyper-inflated their prices to not pay their employees more nor improve their food quality quite like Wendy's has.
Culver's and maybe some local joints are some of the very last places its worth buying a burger from. Might as well solely make them at home for now on.
I worked at Culver’s when I was younger, so when I make burgers at home they essentially ARE Culver’s burgers. Right down to the seasoning.
But I do still love me some Culver’s. I can’t easily do custard or fried cheese curds at home.
The only thing I’ll miss from Wendy’s is dipping their fries in the frosties.
Yeah, the last time I ate at a Wendy’s I was astounded by the decline in quality, especially in comparison with their increased prices.
Last time I ate there I got a deal where I got two burgers and 10 nuggets for free. Nuggets tasted fine. The burger was atrocious. I opted to not even bother unwrapping the second burger because it had been so unpleasant to choke down the first. If I hadn't been so hungry, it would have been one bite and nope.
Their spicy chicken sandwich is okay. Not my favorite, but good when they're doing a buy one, get one.
But I agree the prices in general are way too high and the only reason I eat there is because I have a deal where I sometimes get their food for free (in which case I think the price is absolutely fair).
Culver’s is the goat
Culver's is great it's just too bad they refuse to set up shop in California. The closest ones are right past the border in the side of Arizona.
P. Terry's if you're ever lucky.
Why can't I get past the Terry Pratchett similarity?
GNU Sir Terry Pratchett
Culver's is... interesting.
I find I don't like the paper-thin style burgers much (though the fish sandwich is probably the best fast-food fish sandwich on the market) but it always gives the impression they're trying a little harder. The restaurant always seems clean and a bit of effort was done on the appearance, like they're still in 1978 and taking the family for a sit-down meal there might be an option.
OTOH, the customer base seems to be people who have been going there since 1978, but that could be my location.
They're opening a new one 3km from my house, next to a McDonalds that hasn't made a single order correctly since it opened in ~2015, so it will be interesting to see how the market shakes out.
What about the CEO's new yacht though? I'm sure it's very nice.
