Today I went to burger king for the first time in years. It was even worse than I remembered it. (had the vegetarian option, don’t know if it’s as bad with the meat burgers) Additionally it’s fucking expensive and not as quick as it used to be. So my question is why do some people go there regulary?

    Same. I’ve only had fast food once since 2020, and the experience was like yours: gross and expensive.

    Before I went WFH, I ate FF pretty regularly. Mostly because it was, well, fast and offered a variety (there’s at least 8 or 9 places within walking distance of my office).

    My job only gives a half hour for lunch. I used to pack a lunch, but that gets tedious after a while and takes extra time out of my morning to prepare. Then if I want to heat it up, there’s always a line to use the microwaves or to get to the refrigerator in the break room. By the time my packed lunch is prepared, I’ve got just enough time to wolf it down and head back to my desk.

    Going out for FF at least let me take a walk, get some fresh air, and gave me a variety over the handful of things (or leftovers) I would pack from home.

    If I ever have to RTO, that’s the aspect I’d be most upset about.
