I remember wendy's burgers as tasteless or tasting of grease. McD is no
better. I don't support fast-food chains when I can. I support the local
joints. They need the money more than Wendy's or McD do and consistently
make a better product.

In town there's a Wendy's next to a McD next to The Ccourt Diner. I give
the Diner my business every time. It ain't fast food but it's better and
always fun!

There's a Nifty Fifties Diner that nails down the 50s decor like nobody
else and their burgers are great.

Then there's Charlies. in Folcroft, PA a block or two from Nifty Fifties
that only seats MAYBE 15 people at the counter surrounding the open
kitchen. Cooks just look around and when they look at you, you can order
more or not. No waitresses. Another excellent burger and great
milkshakes. Been around for 50 years or more.

Still I'll have a cheesesteak rather than burger when I break my diet.
They have more higher quality meat and cheese and onions to bread ratio
than any hamburger i've ever ate, 'cept my homemade jumbo sirloin/avocado
cheeseburgers.

Imho,
