If you ask for a Triple Whopper in the UK, remember to ask for cheese!
In the UK a, Triple Whopper doesn't come with cheese and you have to ask for it! Why would anyone want a Triple Whopper without the cheese? CR. |

Nobody wants a whopper without cheese. Actually my friend you have to specifically ask for cheese all over for any size Whopper. Wendy's too. I got into the habit of asking for it YEARS ago because if you forget, you end up getting really ****ed at yoursef and for the company for not assuming that everyone wants cheese, which they should. ***WARNING*** Burger King Whoppers', Wendy's classic's, and SOME Mcdonald's sandwiches (the quater pounder, for example) MUST BE ORDER WITH CHEESE.****** The Big Mac, on the other hand, does NOT need to be ordered whith cheese, it automatically comes with it. So do all bacon-cheeseburgers, and the name of any burger that has the word "cheese" in it. Arby's roast beef does NOT have cheese, you need to order an item such as the Beef-n-cheddar. All Taco bell items automatically come with the cheese. (except obvious item's such as dessert items) |

Assuming I wanted a Whopper, I would want it without cheese. I never eat any type of hamburger with cheese. However, I rarely eat hamburgers anywhere but at home. Cindy Hamilton |

You always have to ask for the sandwich with cheese. Just for an example, the first time I went to a Hardees (we didn't have them in California or Hawaii and I wanted to try them out) I ordered a burger, naked (as in no mayo, but I *did* ask for ketchup), bacon, *cheese*, lettuce and tomato. We went through the drive-thru and, like an idiot, I didn't check my order. I got home, opened the package and found a dry hamburger patty on a bun. That was it. My receipt clearly stated what I had ordered; ketchup, *cheese*, bacon, lettuce, & tomato - and I had to pay extra for that. I think the sandwich came to about $5. I had to ask my husband to drive all the way back to the restaurant to complain and get the toppings I wanted on the burger. To be fair, even cold without melted cheese or hot bacon, it wasn't a bad burger. Jack in the Box was like that, too. If you didn't specify a Jumbo Jack WITH cheese and no sauce, you just got an onion-mayo slobbered patty with lettuce and tomato. Maui's Wailuku Jack in the Box had to be the worst when it came to special orders. They rarely got it right. When they did, though, oh! Fast-food heaven. kili |

My favorite burger, if I'm making them at home, is a *rare* patty (freshly ground, of course), grilled, topped with swiss cheese, sauteed mushrooms, bacon, lettuce, tomato and either ketchup or BBQ sauce. I used to love caramelized onions on top as well, but my digestive system doesn't appreciate the onions so much anymore, unfortunately. :-( kili |

I never >> eat any type of hamburger with cheese. >> However, I rarely eat hamburgers anywhere but at home. I'm with you, Cindy, most of the time. To my tastes, it doesn't add much to a fast food burger except calories. And with the exception of the time I went to BK after a 60-mile bike ride last year and ordered a Whopper Jr. with cheese (I was VORACIOUSLY hungry), I just don't do it. Absolutely love cheese, but want it to be the good stuff, and used in an "application" where it counts. TammyM |

Salt and pepper aplenty. If tomatoes are not in season: Burger with a slice of onion on a buttered, "grilled" onion roll. Salt and pepper. Medium rare in both cases. I used to eat them rare, but my aging digestive system complains when I eat rare meat. For me, cheese is usually the meal, not the garnish. I've always been that way. Cindy Hamilton |

In the UK at least, ask at McDonalds for a double quarter pounder and they'll just look at you strange and say no. |

Not UK ones. This was brought home to me when my niece, who lives in Canada came over here and I took her and our daughter to the cinema. On the way out, she wanted a hot dog and persuaded her mother to buy one after her mother said 'you wont like it. One bite in and it went into the bin. It is the same with burgers. I finished of the one our g daughter couldn't finnish, it was awful :-((( Dave |

I can understand that, UK hot dogs are *completely* different to USA/Canada hotdogs. You just can't compare them. >It is the same with burgers. I finished of the one our g daughter >couldn't finnish, it was awful :-((( Why? Because you were told that's how you're supposed to behave when eating fast-food burgers? BK's burgers are 100% beef, sometimes 100% Angus beef. McDonalds burgers are 100% beef too. There's probably less shit pumped into their beef than their is into ASDA's and Tesco's minced beef! |

Only well done. The FSA states "make sure that burgers are piping hot throughout, cooked until the juices run clear and there’s no pink meat inside.' http://www.food.gov.uk/news/newsarch...07/jul/burgers |

Sorry about that, but I am a 2 finger typist and I was a bit nervous earlier on (it's a temporary health problem that is cured by alcohol) and the fingers were going all over the place. On the other hand, have you never seen a dog in heat? :-) Dave |

I'm sure I'm just unobservant. If at a kebab stand, I normally get a falafel or if I'm feeling carniverous a lamb kebab. I really don't have any memory of UK hot dogs. (Which I do have somewhat of a weakness for.) Steve |
