just had one
still hungry
taste not too bad
but leaves you empty




that is all
~Sparkles~
Man IMO HJ's is crap. I dunno if they have changed something or if im just getting old but when i was younger HJ's kicked ass over Maccas. Now days I brely ever have HJ's

Havent tried the Quad Stack - and probably wont either. If its 4 times the greasy crap in their other burgers it'll taste like old leather boots thats been through a mincer and lubricated with recycled engine oil
Stone
blanket... Did you have the quad?

I still prefer a double whopper with cheese to anything Macca's makes biggrin.gif

The media have been beating this burger down like crazy and it's not even special... They are whinging it has 71g of fat, but the double whopper with cheese that is on the menu permanently has 65g smile.gif
blanketman
i had one
with onion rings and a cheese burger
the cheese burger was more filling

i was going to go 2
lucky i didnt
soo dissapointing
Stone
Ahhh... Just read that they're a smaller diameter burger than the Whopper... No wonder it wasn't filling.

HAhA
hsvmonarogen3
bacon deluxe FTW

on another note. im gonna try it. its probably as good as the punder from maccas
Stone
The Pounder is bigger as it uses quarter pounder patties. This apparently uses patties the size of big mac patties, so it's like a quad cheese burger with bacon.
~Sparkles~
Meh I stick with my usual order of a Large big mac meal and a triple cheese burger
TheyDontWantMusic
they don't taste that great, but they are filling.

however, the triple cheeseburger from maccas is much better.
blanketman
they are NOT filling
i repeat
NOT FILLING

and I think you're an idiot smile.gif

shall I repeat that too?

they don't taste too great, but a pile of meat, and cheese is going to be filling, no matter what you try to tell us silly.gif
blanketman
i must be an idiot then
cause i was still hungry after eating it
and a cheeseburger and onion rings
t;line-height:100%">and a roast sandwich about an hour earlier

usually food hits the spot
but this didnt

I don't mind HJ's. My favorite at the moment is the Ultimate Double Whopper in a Value Meal, large of course smile.gif Burger sh!ts on Macca's burgers!

except the cheese burgers/double/triple etc, maccas are better.
enzo
hmm yeh my mate and i work sundays 6-2 pretty much 51 weeks out of the year, sunday arvo lunch used to be maccas before we switched to HJs, we havent looked back.

got a bit worried when we grew used to the Widowmaker (hmm, we felt big the first time we did an ultimate, thought it deserved another name tongue.gif) <heavy pickle, heavy mayo every time>

reading all this i just thought it was a HJ equivalent of the pounder, however, smaller patties n bread?....wtf is the point in that?

Might give it a go this weekend though lol

I saw it on OCAU last night, insane how quick some threads grow in that place

edit: i guess i do have to agree that the cheeseburgers at maccas are better, but i think thats just because thats what a 'cheeseburger' tastes like...though, u need 2-3 to touch the sides

Louie
If it's not big or filling enough, you could ask them to make it on the 5" buns and meat, which is what's used for the Whopper range. I'm sure that would hit the spot, surely?

Blankie, I feel sorry for you.. so I thought I'd let you know I had one of these for tea last night...

With a side order of chili
~Spyne~
when i saw 'wendys' i thought, now what would wendys sell that could possibly be close to the quad-stack....all they do are shakes, ice-cream and hotdogs....
but obviously a different business altogether.....baconator looks hawt!!! i'd hit it
Charger
Lol Blackice. That thing is a monster! The bun looks a little too healthy though for my likings. smile.gif

Wendys in AU used to sell burgers too - Though I believe it was a different wendys to wendys the icecream shop we know today

Black Ice do you guys have white castle in Canada?
Cide
i had a quad stacker yesterday, it made me feel sick. it was way to McDonalds for my liking. i think i will stick with ultimate whoppers. that is all
blanketman
i would hit that
maybe 2

maybe double dogs are in order soon
Stone
I want McHappy day again... Gotta beat 9 Macs biggrin.gif
WHEELZ
i just had a large quad stack meal, and the burger taste like ass, i love the HJ's fries though biggrin.gif but yeah im sticking to the ultimate double whopper meal biggrin.gif
Vincenzo
im not a huge fan of microwaved bacon, makes it chewy sad.gif like the hungry jack's patties better but for a nice filling burger can't really go past the maccas pounder smile.gif or a cheeseburger with 5 or more meat patties on it... tongue.gif
sean
I eat maccas almost every day! I haven't been back to my local one near work for awhile after a pulled the door open too fast when I left (waited 10mins) and snapped the 'door closer thing' off and it fell on the ground! laugh.gif Living on KFC atm - Hungry Jacks makes me ill sad.gif
Charger
I have grown an immunity to Hungry Jacks. I can eat it all day long these days I never get full. Even right now I could go a large meal or two sad.gif
WHEELZ
i wish i could do that sad.gif

No White Castle... or Chili's either sad.gif

The Baconator is better if you dip it into Wendy's chilli on the side tongue.gif
enzo

definitely back to the ultimate for me

There is a Chili's in Calgary, ate there before i went to the airport.

i dare say it.. yes.. i work at HJ's smile.gif

the quad stack is pure crap

i work front counter, the whole time i work i make jokes about how f***ed up a quad stack will make you.

often customers come up to me asking for a "heart attack burger" , "a big juicy mutherf***er", or "i saw that deadly fatty burger on current affair shows and i want to try it"

and yet someone had the nerve to come in AND ASK FOR A DOUBLE QUAD STACK!!

so i invented a new burger called... the OCTOQUAD.. it consists of 32 meat patties, 32 slices of cheer, and 3 rashers of microwaved bacon.. all deepfried and coated with cream cheese

that is my rambling about my job at HJ's for today smile.gif

all i eat there is the storms and the OJ, its good crap.
RAD82
I know someone who'd quite happily put an Octoquad away. 152kg, take away 6 days a week, and one week ate nothing but pizza, 2 large a day.

octoquad hey

Only 2 large pizzas a day? Was he/she on a diet?

1 large pizza is a meal fit for a jockey tongue.gif
~Sparkles~
^ depends on the pizza store. There used to be a pizza store near me and blanky that there large could feed 3-4 people quite easily. But most places now nave smaller pizzas Kel and I normally get 3 pizzas a pasta and a garlic bread to share.

And home made pizzas I makes about 8" thin base pizzas that you struggle to eat more than 2 of

Oh yeah I had 2 triple cheese burgers last night (got peckish on the way home for dinner) and that got me thinking for under $10 2 triple cheesys is pretty filling and if you add fries and a coke ontop of that its almost big enough feed to qualify as a meal
Cide
i think thats why adding fries and a coke is called a value MEAL....
~Sparkles~
I've killed people for being less of a smart ass - concider yourself lucky.

LOL

But you know what I mean. Like a meal isnt a burger fries and a coke - there always has to be a second burger or a 10 pack of nuggets.

But I wouldnt call 2 triple cheese burgers large fries and a coke a meal - but I would call 1 triple cheese burger 1 big mac large fries and a large coke a meal. Not a very nutritional meal - but a meal all the same
Stone
Pfft... Plenty of protein, carbs and fats in there... Just not a whole lot of vitamins... So take a multi-vitamin biggrin.gif

I've been banned for being less of a smart ass than that too tongue.gif

yeah i know what you are talking about, my little extra fill me up is usually some onion rings. Mmmmmm Onion Rings *drools*...
Stone
Suspended, not banned wink.gif
Cide
haha, sorry Stone, my mistake.
blanketman
