Note to loyal blog follower

so hey, I know there must be one burgerextravaganza super-fan out there. To you I appopogize good sir, or madam. I’ve been totally crap at updating this. Crisis of motivation really .

plus I lied to you

I came back from Hawaii with loads of burg pix and review notes, then proceeded to drop phone containing them into he Pacific Ocean. Well after 8 months of procrastination at least. Those absolutely thought provoking burg notes and pics are now forming part of a coral reef.

Enough excuses. I’m sorry. Peace, love, burgers

That new Wendy’s burger

So if you have by chance watched any Canadian television in the past couple weeks, you’ve likely noticed wendys spamming a new burg. bacon mushroom melt on brioche. Sounds amazing right?

Looking semi-sexy

Thats what I thought too. Had some time to kill in YVR so I figured id give it a go. One word: over-promise, under-deliver.

i guess that’s 4.

Huh? I want mushrooms and cheese!

Huh? I want mushrooms!!

So Ya, what’s the scoop? Basically boils down to this. Bun = good, but pretty far removed from any brioche I’ve ever had. Patty = typical Wendy’s (Ie okay for fast food). Mushrooms = minimal. And smothered in some weird sauce that was cream of mushroom soup’ish. Bacon = undercooked. Cheese = fast food cheese (fine by me).

I expected more. You should too after seeing how amazing it looks in ads. Wendy’s, your marketing department wins – my wallet loses. Boo.

score = 5.2 / 10

( would have scored a bit higher if it weren’t for dissapointment factor and soggy bacon)
