wrote: He wanted to bum some mayo off of him until he got a new delivery in the morning. Being the conscienscous employees that we were, we went about our 'duty' while one was assigned lookout and another listened in to the conversation in the managers office. Seems the boy was ****ed off at being written up for something and he had been waxing his carrot in the mayonnaise and then serving it to the customers. How long it had been going on, no one knew, but he was 'seen' enjoying the mayonaisse by another employee who went and got the manager who witnessed the consumation of the act and him stirring it in the mayo. That's when all hell broke lose....... Could never eat there again after that. Never knew how many burgers were sold with the 'special' sauce. And to all and sundry who were there that night, Hardees was further known not as the 'Home of the Whopper' but 'Home of the Jerk Burger'.......not urban legend, folks. This one I was actually there on the periphery. -ginny jissum's probably better for you than hardee's mayonnaise. your pal, blake |

Get a lot of honks and one finger salutes from drivers here in Philly. Darn Raiders, ain't done nothing since the 1983 season superbowl victory against the Washington Redskins. Nothing since. Andy Season ticket holder, no longer. And a South Park "Kenny" and a Union 76 antenna topper |

They copy that campaign from AOL It's the same promotion Hardee's did a few years ago. Hardee's really did improve their food, so it worked. They went from way below average, to above average. Wendy's is pretty marginal, and Arby's is near the bottom of the barrel, occupying a position not far above Rally's/Checkers. If Arby's wants to improve their food, they need to steal these folks' model: http://lionschoice.com/home_index.html -sw --Bryan |

The pictures don't look bad and the prices seem to be fairly reasonable. *I wish they had better descriptions of the items, though. *What's a Roast Beef Plus? I don't know exactly, but you can get extra meat on them. Perhaps it means with any of the various extra-charge toppings. The beef isn't that chunked, formed, pressed junk (like Arby's). It's top round. They even had A-1 to put on it. There are currently two locations in Florida, both in Ft. Meyers - a good 5 hours drive - so I don't think I'll be visiting one any time soon, but I may try it if I see it sometime. Thanks for the heads up. Yeah, it's not worth a long drive. There's one very close to us, and I don't go there very often, though that's only because it's quite a bit pricier than McD's value menu, and right now, they don't have any coupons, and because my 6 YO doesn't like the place. kili --Bryan |
