Food Fight #1 - McDonalds vs Burger King
 


Welcome to The Mall's Food Fight! Each week a food product or restaurant will be pitted - eh, get it? *cough* food puns *cough* - against another food product or restaurant to see which will come out on top. Make sure to tell us below which you think is better and remember: don't just vote, expand on your answers! We want to know why you are so adamant with your answer (:

This week, we are pitting two of the biggest fast food burger joints out there against each other: McDonalds vs Burger King. Which will come out on top? Only YOU can help determine which is superior!

If you have a matchup that you would like to see, send me a VM or PM and if your matchup gets chosen then an emblem will be given out as a reward!

Without further ado:

Which restaurant is overall better: McDonalds or Burger King?

I love burger king, but I have to go with McDonald's. They often have better toys, and they're cheeseburgers are addictive. <3

Keiran April 7th, 2016 9:02 AM

I would never eat from either but I've heard literal horror stories (mostly about cleanliness and other health hazard related issues) about Burger King from people I know that have worked there, so I'm going to go with McDonalds. Except the McDonalds on Dorset.

Wicked3DS April 7th, 2016 9:06 AM

McDonald's just to piss Archy off has much better fries and burgers.

Margot April 7th, 2016 9:24 AM

I was never a fan of the char broiled burgers that BK made. Even their fries weren't that great. There have been lots of days while being a celiac that I wish I could indulge in a big Mac with fries. Also kudos to McDonald's Sweden for having gluten free burgers.

McDonald's, hands down.

Esper April 7th, 2016 9:37 AM

McDonald's has the better fries. The last time I ate at Burker King (which was a million years ago) they made soggy burgers and only so-so fries.

EC April 7th, 2016 9:41 AM

McDonald's. Their fries are good at truly any time of the day. 2AM? 2PM? Anytime.

Klippy April 7th, 2016 9:46 AM

If BK is selling their chicken fries, I'm all for BK. But they usually aren't. So McD!

Pebbles April 7th, 2016 10:36 AM

burgerking because they got swirl fries? whatever they are called~_~

OuterTsuchinoko April 7th, 2016 10:44 AM

McDonald's all the way. It's my favorite fast food place in general too. I like almost everything on the menu. Those fries and cheeseburger are delicious, I could eat them everyday. They have pretty good coffee as well. Oh man and those breakfast sausage burritos are addictive.

Skip Class April 7th, 2016 1:00 PM

Burger King because more BKs have drink dispensers that I can personally use than Maccas does. And then come back for a million refills.

... but then again Maccas has them self ordering machines so I don't have to be a social pleb to talk to people

I've never seen those machines before. I'd love to try ordering food on a machine one day be it Mickey D's or anywhere. The only cool thing I ever see in fast food places where I live are those fountain Coca-Cola machines with the touch screen that have like a thousand different flavors to pick from.

Belinda April 7th, 2016 7:25 PM

I always preferred Burger King as a kid. I honestly loved their fries and most of their food in comparison to McDonalds. I hardly eat at either fast food joint nowadays (Burger King is too far now ever since our local one was closed) though. But I'll have a Mcflurry like every two years lmao.

Sylphiel April 7th, 2016 7:31 PM

I have wanted to go to McDonald's before just because I wanted their fries...well, and some of their other things, but the fries were the deciding factor for me at the time I made the decision. I can't say that BK has anything that draws me in, so...McDonald's wins my vote.

(Although okay okay I haven't been to a BK in years, but seriously the main reason I went to BK before then was to basically "take a break from having McDonald's all the time", lol. Not really the most compelling of reasons.)

Sirfetch’d April 7th, 2016 7:47 PM

McScuse me. Burger King is better in almost every way. While I rarely eat at either, I much prefer going to BK and getting a tasty burger.

Sothis April 7th, 2016 8:27 PM

McDonalds, the Burger King here closed down lol

Who doesn't? xD

I don't go to either often. I prefer BKs burgers and fries but I love McDonalds Breakfast menu and that I actually will eat. Plus the King is terrifying in those ads.

Logan April 8th, 2016 1:12 AM

Agree with Moon

Mana April 8th, 2016 1:57 AM

UK fast food must be consistent :c agreeing with Moon and Hashtag completely here haha.

ALTHOUGH I had an obsession on BK's chicken pops when I was younger. Those were good too :c. Close call but McD wins by a hair.

Hikamaru April 8th, 2016 3:53 AM

BK became a relic of the past, so I automatically have to vote for McDonald's.

Judge Mandolore Shepard April 8th, 2016 7:17 AM

When it comes to McDonalds vs Burger King, I have to go with McDonalds. For one thing, I don't like the fries at Burger King, but I like the fries at McDonalds. Plus I have also eaten at McDonalds more times than I have eaten at Burger King.

Cay April 8th, 2016 7:35 AM

BOOI McDonalds takes it for me. Gotta have me a good shamrock shake. their mcflurries are amazing too. havent had BK in a while tho =/

I think my vote for McDonalds will be for their breakfast menu too. I pretty much either choose their Deluxe breakfast or McMuffin sausage, lol.

McDonalds! ^^ Despite the existence of the SuperSize Me movie and all the flak that McDonald's gets in regards to consumers "eating healthy", their fries are (usually) amazing, and their hamburgers and McChicken sandwiches are just terrific..! I haven't eaten Burger King in quite a while, although the last time I had the fries there, they just didn't taste like the superior McDonald's fries (which have essentially tasted great for me for the longest time).. McDonald's also has an iconic Happy Meal design (except the containers with the creepy eye imagery) as well as iconic mascots (although Ronald McDonald and friends seems to be somewhat diminishing in prominence, moreso the guys like Hamburglar and such), although the "Burger King's literal Burger King" campaign was freaky yet hilarious. {XD} I think McDonald's has funnier/more memorable commercials, though, and their iconography, coloration, and uniform scheme is very distinct, in my opinion (plus the "Mickey D's" nickname and the classic golden arches!). Oh, and the good McDonald's food aromas! {<3} Although, I'm glad that both restaurant chains (McDonald's and Burger King) have fielded Pokemon-related toys at least once! Although Burger King still disappointed me with those "Game Boy" toys that I thought was a real functional Game Boy. ;-; Ooh, and I remember this Sonic the Hedgehog-related mini handheld that was nice..

...Although, I'm really hoping that McDonald's institutes "all-day fries and hamburgers" at some point.. How are we gonna have "all-day breakfast" when the restaurant essentially got its start from (and is known for) fries and hamburgers? -_-

.And I've really wanted to try those Burger King chicken fries for a while, now.. :< Oh, and that team-up of Burger King with Cinnabon was just stunning; if McDonald's partnered with Cinnabon, my great food dreams could come true.. <3

{XD} Those self-ordering kiosks are interesting! I like actually talking to cashiers for the order, though; it just wouldn't feel the same otherwise.. XD
