OK, I think I've detected a trend here. You go to hamburger joints
and order some non-hamburger item. Then you don't like it. Seems
like you are going to their weak side every time.

To be fair, I have not eaten at a McDonalds since about 1970 because
I thought then that they made lousy burgers and vowed not to eat there
again. I don't think I've seen a Wimpy's in 30+ years, so I'm not
defending either of them.

On the plus side for me, they've just opened a Bojangles in my
town. It's one of the few fast food type places I like, but I
do stick with their signature fried chicken and biscuits.
