Topic: Katchup: On Bun Or On Patty?

Mmm Mayo, Ketchup and relish sounds like secret sauce...

Ever been to Five Guys? People talk about how awesome it is, and they're completely full of ****. It's a $5 Whopper, only greasier. The fries suck too. No matter what you do to it, a well done (you don't get to choose how you want it cooked) hamburger will always suck.

Blaspheme!

Mayo, is the work of the devil..... you must use " The tangy Zip! of Miracle Whip!"........allrightsreserved,MiracleWhipisanationaltrademarkofKraftFoodsGlobalInc.

I'm one of the odd breed who likes both Mayo and Miracle Whip.

I prefer a mixture of mustard and a1 on my burgers.

I also prefer sauteed toppings over fresh ones. Still, tomatoes, pickles, lettuce, red onion and olives make damn good toppings.

Its a must that I have cheese on it as well and I always place the burger on top of it. If I have the option, I'll always pick something like butterkase, feta, or cheddar to give it a sharp tangy taste.

And burgers should always be prepared medium or medium rare.

Mayonnaise and Miracle Whip have their places. They are both very different flavours so I'm not sure why someone would choose only one. Personally, I like mayonnaise on warm sandwiches (like hamburgers for instance), and Miracle Whip on cold cut sandwiches (like turkey, ham, etc.). Furthermore, a potato salad made with a half cup each of mayonnaise and Miracle Whip is very tasty.

I've had a hamburger from Five Guys only a couple of times, but I thought it was better than any hamburger that can be gotten from a fast-food joint, even Fatburger.

Five Guys is on my bucket list.

Baconaise FTW!!!

I'm serious, Five Guys sucks. Ok it doesn't exactly *suck* - but it's just nowhere near as good as the people who worship that place say it is. It's edible, just no reason to go out of your way to get a burger.

Mayo goes on the bottom of the top half of the bun.  It's thick enough, it doesn't soak into the bun.  Lettuce goes next - it'll attach to the mayo.  Then, tomato slices on top of the lettuce, so you can put your thumbs on the top of the bun as you flip it over to help hold the lettuce on the bun.

Now, on the bottom bun, you got your patty, cheese, then ketchup - one spiral ring (three loops wide).  Four pickles, not overlapping (unless they're big slices) and a small handful of sliced onions.

That's how you make a Whopper.

Did you used to work at Burger King?

Sounds like In-N-Out Burger. I've not tried it but the fans are quite rabid about it and go on about it's 'secret menu' but several people I've spoken with have said it's not a big deal.

Hey!!!

I used to work at Burger King!!! that's exactly RIGHT!! The secret is out!! OPERATION SHUTDOWN!!!

People have different tastes. You can't believe anyone who says a food is great anymore than you can trust someone who says it is terrible. The only option is to try it yourself and see if you like it.

I prefer to come up with my opinions without trying things first; the process is much faster that way.

[UncleBob]

Did you used to work at Burger King?

Yup.  And everytime I go into a Subway and watch them make my sub, I always want to yell "YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG".  Seriously, they put the mayo directly onto the meat!  What's up with that?!?

Based on my Subway experiences, that means you order your subs with no vegetables.

[ShyGuy]

Don't get mayo at Subway, get sweet onion sauce or honey mustard.
