US vs UK Burger King | Food Wars
So medium fries is just a scam
Good to know
#FryGate2020
The Food Theory, kinda theorize it. And it really is a scam
Yeah now I know I can save more money for the equal amount
The McDonald's small to medium is really close as well.
@It’s free Real estate twice? Nah that's too much of a coincidence
*When you realize that the US small size drink is literally larger than the UK large*
ı was thinking that too
I mean, 1 LITER of soda? Man...
That's america for you.
To be honest, they put so much ice in the US drinks that, I bet that the liquid inside the cups is more similar than you realize.
Shocking when I saw it
Moral of the story: Never buy medium fries
Food theory be like
I guess I’m a dumbass for ordering medium onion rings at Burger King today
The hidden BK scam!

in the UK that is. in the US thats a steal
UK: This is our large drink...
US: Very well, we'll start from there!

@Honesty all you've explained has never been experienced by me, nor anyone I know or worked with. I also worked at McDonald's too. This sounds like you're just a hassle and a difficult person to deal with, and you're the kind of person to shout at a 16 year old on minimum wage about something they can't control.
Most of what you said is random and irrelevant, and the issue you found with McDonald's seemed to be linked with a little thing called "Covid". Seems like you've created your own stories, or at least exaggerated huge parts of it.
@Honesty There is 2 things I've learnt from your comment about you:
1. You never learnt the English language well enough to pass a primary school English test
2. You create false realities to suit your agenda.
You can't say McDonald's hires young people because they're perverted; they do it cause its cheap labour.
This isn't about you, and if you lose money that's a you problem. I suggest you "buck up" your English ability and your idea that the world evolves around you, then you can talk
Says about Halloumi ''I don't want that''... OH yes you do... you have no idea what you are missing out on, man :D It's salty, crispy. the ultimate perfection of cheese.

No matter how many times I watch videos in this series, I can't get over the fact that somehow the us small is always larger than the uk large drinks
Same in Japan
Like I said under the other comment.
They fill up the drinks with ice cubes which takes away bout 3/4 of the drink and thn just add watered down soda to it to safe money.
@@novaclapp9019 you know the most expensive part of the drink is the cup, right?
@@novaclapp9019 that’s why you go in and fill it to the brim with no ice yourself. Or tell them “no ice” and if they give you ice, go complain to the manager.

UK: Hmmm yes some medium fries please
US: WHERE IS THE STOMACH CANCER?
It takes two hands to hold heart disease
With some complimentary sauce
U what m8?
@blv Why would that be worth anyones time?
so just always take small fries, medium seems like a waste of money.
The medium portion is there to make people buy the large portions. There is a name for this but I forgot what it was. Companies use this tactic all the time
@@ggj1987 i think its called the decoy tactic
honestly, this issue applies to the the large/medium fries at mcdonalds. They rarely fill the large up correctly, so if you pay for a large you usually get a medium anyway. I kinda wish they would actually control it so you get what you pay for, but wevs.
6:43 i love that the UK guy just sat there...
No one who has eaten Halloumi: "I don't want that"

The important thing to remember when determining the amount of fries one gets from any fast food restaurant fry order is to not include the "bonus fries" laying in the bottom of the bag. Those are the bonus fries and are not indicative of a regular fry order. 😏

Hey Joe, I am re-watching this, and Halium cheese is fantastic, grilled with some spicing. It has to be grilled or heated in some way, I coat it with a spicey paste of chili powder, ketchup and other goodies. It's close to Paneer, the Indian version of it
Man, the edit is so good.
I started with one video, now I'm addicted.

That's what everyone said, after entering for first time in any fast food place.
bruh i work at burger king and that “Large” for USA is actually a medium. there’s genuinely larger cups 😂

As an employee at BK we are told to "fluff not stuff" the fries so it does really depend on the person expediting
I tend to put as much as I can in the bags, but I hate filling small and medium bags because they're so small fries fall all over the place haha
I've only had one Burger King meal in the USA- Lake Charles, La, July 3rd 1976. The most memorable thing about that meal was not the size of the burger, but the building next door being struck by lightning. It made most of the diners jump!
I can't watch more than two of these in a row before the urge to eat fast food becomes overwhelming.
I love how the US side has a scale with edges. They literally know that everything is gonna overflow...
I mean if you don't want to use an extra plate then that's kind of the point

I LOVE HOW THE EDITORS JUST SAY *"This literally happened last video"* IT WAS SO FUNNY FOR SOME REASON BCS THEY GOT THEIR FACTS WRONG LMAO.
It's odd that the UK BK is not giving you the alternate menu with the calories and ingredients. I worked in BK (albeit this was in 2012) and if you asked for the alternate menu they would give it.
Idk maybe it depends on which restaurant has it.
Also, as far as I remember, to cook the vege patties we actually used the fries oil. Again, it probably depends on the restaurant (we had vegetarian workers so that's probably why we were more careful).
I love watching this show it's very intresting to see the differences between fast food is the uk vs the us i hope you guys can make more and keep up the good work
thanks Donnie!

It's so interesting watching this as an Australian cause we have alot of different things for all of the take away joints

Burger king had a veggie patty as well, it just isn't listed. You had to specifically ask for it. It was $5.50 back in 2012 when I got it.

Probably just eggs and oil. Oils are pretty calorie dense, so mayo is usually that bad as well. Frankly I'm not sure what "mayo" is only 6 calories.
its impossible for a serving of mayo on a burger to be 6 calories. Thats basically one drop
There is no way mayo is 6 calories .that shit is full of eggs and oil .

Its because the guy is being prejudice to Halloumi, the best cheese.
Very good subtitles
i watch these alot
Burger king with their fries has been exposed
Is nobody going to talk about the fact that Americans don’t know what halloumi is, thought they would be all over that.
I think it was just that guy.... I love halloumi! I would totally try that sandwich!
I’ve never heard of it, and my guess is most Americans haven’t either.
I think paneer is more of a thing here. But it’s regional. Some places are familiar with one more than another.
nope most people don't know it they're all over tofu tho since they love putting tofu + vegans/vegetarians all over tv/movies/etc
Well I have no idea what halloumi tastes like, and it is definitely not commonly heard of, but more popular are cheese curds, which can also be fried.
Hilarious that he says “I don’t want that” to the fried halloumi sandwich but he would unquestionably love one. Idk about the BK version, but fried cheese sandwhich are GOAT tier
So BK in Brazil has one called Mega Stacker and you can get them from a 2.0 to a 4.0 (that's how many patties are in the burger) also you can get the "Rodeo" version wich comes with BBQ sauce and Onion Rings, the "Insano" wich means insane in Portuguese that comes with a special sauce and bacon, there's one with cheddar, the "Atomico" in Portuguese means Atomic aaaaaand in the last word cup there was one called "Hexa Stacker" wich was kind of a way to get pepole to cheer for our team
UK large drink is 90ml smaller than US small 😂😂
It's such a toss up over here. Of you to McDonalds a small is actually a small. But if you go to Tacobell or Wendy's it's a large.
I'm pretty sure every metric country's large is 500ml. US is huge because they use oz. Still though, I find half a liter of coke to be too much in some cases so I don't understand how Americans can drink so much.
