Imagine his shock when he finds out those American chemicals, including the ones in all their cattle that they make into burgers, are illegal in Europe so those patties don't have them in.
i just wrote a comment about that. yes americans eat hormone meat and full of anti biotics. they also eat bread with way too much sugar and yoga mat ingredients (pretty much plastic). they also wash their chickens with chlorine. point is in europe its indeed forbidden. he ate for once real food. food how it was intended to taste like america fuks it up not we europeans
I mean like he said he is on a diet and will get coke zero which is chemicals too, so like wtf :)
@@dronahell5680 Depends where you get it from. since he get it from spain you can 100% agree on it that they have less chemicals in them then the american version
@@dronahell5680 in Europe we have some chemicals in food. In USA they have some food to make the chemicals eatable.
Central and southern europe still use antibiotics in meat industry. Sweden and Finland dont use. If you want clean meat, get it from the north. But nothing beats the good ole american meat with all the things little kids need like antibiotics, steroids, god knows what fertilizers to grow grass ......
"This building must be 200 years old"
It's adorable that you think that's a long time.
Their "country" is not even 300 years old.
laughing from my innercity house that is literally 350 years old.
Meanwhile me looking at buildings that are 100 years old: Yes?
I chuckled
@@yty1941 There are buildings in Spain that come from the era of the Catholic Kings.
its called food safety standards I know you guys in the states don't understand that such a thing is actual law in the EU
forgot how annoying europoors are
in america they don't understand anything from outside america
yeah having beer in McDo in US isn't safe.. i am sure of that 😀 They can't make alcool without killing half of population so they don't do it !!
yes 100 chemicals in burger makes my burger tasty -People in USA.
Food standards.
"There should be more cheese oil' is the most American thing I've heard so far
or chiken oil lmao
@@trashsyboi6180 the chicken oil killed me 😭
hahaha, thought the same
Greasy is how to lose customers in most of Europe.
@@visualdarkness You gotta have that for America, from what he spent in this video on those junk with that money I can cook for 2 weeks and order from local small restaurants(well made,good ingredients) food for a week. 10,11 euros for a small burger is wild if you know your city(and not British) with 11,12 Euro you can make 2 big big homemade burger,that is 1. more tasty 2. more healthy.
"What has Europe done to our American Fast Food?"....we just made it edible and consumable by human beings !
Well the US Burgers are just way better
europe ruined it, europe wants lab food.
@@user-cp1sg7qd5g compared to.. which country's burgers? US food & animal-farm laws in every state are pretty bad if you compare them to most countries in europe.
for example germany's burger kings use 80% german meat and 20% from austria. the laws there are more strict than in the US, which changes ofcourse the meat-quality and makes it more healthy in comparison.
@@user-cp1sg7qd5g yeah with patties that contain 40% meat 30% fat and 30% chemicals. Oh and a meat that probably only half of it Come from the us
@@user-cp1sg7qd5g🤣🤣🤣🤣
Imagine the shock when he finds out. That each european country has a unique menu that reflects their own market's needs
He could go on a fast food tour around each country and find all sort of new meals. Though honestly, pizza's might be the most hilarious, in Sweden there's probably crazier combinations and variety than anywhere on the world.
an american finding out that europe is not a single country but culture can change every 50km? shocker...
In Turkey, traditional foods change village to village. Incredible.
Imagine the shock when he finds out that employees in fast food chains in Europe are payed a decent wage.
In Spain now they're going to include "Tequeños" which is a dish from Venezuela
The vegetarian food won't be full of chemicals like the USA, we actually have good standards in most countries in Europe😂
And yet the vegetarian food still tastes like the inferior knock-off version which has a fake taste and odd texture
and the funny thing is you actually trust them to not do that in europe.
It's truth in advertising law, to be sold as food in Europe it tends to need to be food.
"What has Europe done to our American Fast Food?"
Made it actually edible
We can even call that M or B .. food.
really ??? Its crap all the way, all over the W.
No
@@bekkbekks7546 I agree it's still crap food no matter where on the planet.
"our American food" you mean the food derived from other cultures, huh?
America has nothing original, just edits.
'I'll get a coke zero because I'm on a diet' is the most American thing I've heard in a while 😅
is that a bad thing?
@jt I didn't say that. It's just very American to choose the 'healthy' version of a very unhealthy drink as your diet option
@@DarkMatter280 and it's funny because he's obviously not on a diet. 😂
@Tackleberry61 The best jokes are the ones that need explaining 😂 you could be on a diet and still do a tasting so it's not THAT obvious
actually coke zero is great cheatcode to reduce calorie intake and make organism think you just ate sugar that he asks for
I don't eat at Burger King very often but when I do I always check the app offers, stupid not to.
GREEN lettuce at McD's??? I'm moving there.
Can we just note Europe is made up off different countries in which each country has unique Burger King menus and meals .
Yeah old facts
so whats the capital of Europe?
@@VaclavM Bratislava 🤣
he thinks south africa is entire africa too lol.
Finally eu isnt a country
Everywhere else Sonny calls that processed orange cheese 'American Cheese' in Europe he calls it "fake cheese" Lmao.
The American " cheese" was not a cheese
in germany some call it plastic cheese
@@TeylaDex Everywhere it is called fake cheese, except us
American cheese is not orange
@@beardedgeek973 They're not talking about cheddar they're talking about American cheese. I'd say it's more yellow than orange tbh though. But definitely a kind of orangeish yellow.
I love how he ended up in San Sebastian, i recognized it fast thanks to the MacDonalds at the other side near a sports shop (and partially to the neverending bus lines xDDDD) those chicken buckets may have less amounts but a treat on a sunny day at beach is a good thing to have (I once bought one, it was a real bucket, not a box and I went to eat with some friends at the afternoon near the beach and it was a pretty good plan + the bucket was served to me really fast and was well cocked so im not blaming). Anyways great video and not trying to doxx or whatever, just a first timer here in the channel and it was a pretty funny coincidence I ended watching you exactly where I eat sometimes.
The joke is San Sebastian has actual fine dining that you'd probably need to sell your kidney to purchase anywhere in the US.
Escúchame, ese McDonald's es el peor en el que he estado en mi vida
@@usertecnouser6928 no te creas, hay varios que dejan mucho que desear, mismamente el de Lasarte a mi no me pareció muy allá, pero si es verdad que a veces entre la gente, lo sucio que normalmente estaba (o que recuerde yo) y las veces que habré visto colas en los 4-5 cajeros si deja bastante en visto el local, pero lo dicho, hay bastantes McDonald's no son mejores que este por desgracia, al menos el Burger King si esta guay (menos la planta de abajo que normalmente esta repleta de restos de comida y envoltorios desperdigados por el suelo, en fin, críos preadolescentes la mayoría de veces (y yo tengo 22, menos mal que soy introvertido y de por si no quiero dar el cante)
Hi Sony! Regarding the pun about veggie burgers, I have a recommendation (it might be a stretch because it's a very specific place and I don't know when you might have the chance to pay them a visit, but when it comes to veggie burgers, I recommend this place to everyone... and this comes from a meat eater...). The place in question is "Flower Burger" from Palermo - Sicily (Italy) and I had the ONLY veggie burgers that I have ever liked... no... loved!
We all know how strict Italians are about the quality of their ingredients and this place is no different. The paddies are made from mashed up cooked vegies, like lentils, beans and chickpeas, spiced with all kinds of aromatics like herbs, garlic, e.v. olive oil, etc. Buns were fresh and soft, toppings were crisp and refreshing and the sauce... amazing. Overall, those burgers are in my personal top 3 I ever had, and they compete against meat so... that's something.
As a side note, I loved that they didn't try to make it something it's not... it wasn't "beyond meat" it wasn't presented as "healthier than meat" or "better than a normal burger"... no... The waitress was really sweet and straightforward with us and told us: "It's almost like a regular burger, but the paddy is made from veggies and the buns are not brioche, they are eggless buns". And it delivered! It tasted great!
I know some of the people reading this must think I'm talking bull or I own the place and try to advertise it 😂😂😂 but no... it was genuinely the only time a veggie burger tasted good for me and I'm just trying to share an awesome place with people around the globe. Cheers!

The cranberry sauce is actually not made for fries or nuggets. it's made for cheese stuff like fried cheese sticks or similar. In Swedish cuisine, cranberry sauce is also used for meatballs called Köttbullar. Many Europeans like this combo, but mostly cranberry sauce in Europe is used for baked Camembert (french cheese). Honestly, as turkish-german, I think also this combo is very weird. Nice video and greetings :)
Are you swedish too? :)
@@tinysaurus1 no :), i am turkish but born and raised in germany, but I know the swedish cuisine like many people form germany do, Scandinavian cuisine and culture is similar and somewhat related to the German, therefore also well spread in German cuisine and also popular.
@@hakanfreezy207 Oh okey! Yeah it's the same the other way around too, we do have quite a lot of German food in our cousine too. :)
Swedish lingon (tyttebær here in Denmark and Preiselbeere in German) are not actually American cranberries, even though we often call them that in English in Europe (but if we wanted to be correct we'd call them lingonberries).
@@BarryNorton Very true! :)
Watching Sonny review a burger in European city feels weirdly more alien than watching him eat a stuffed roasted goat several hundred miles from the nearest city.
Totally 😂😂
Very underrated comment
cuz he does not like europe as much as he does like vietnam
That's just the metropolitan, stuffed, roasted goat.
@@hounddog4363 more or less.
"What has Europe done to our food"
Went to Spain
OMG Europe as a WHOLE has destroyed our food
How are we suppose to take you seriously ?
Americans are so used to their country consisting of 50 states, they assume Europe is a centralised federation as well.
Germany and Wiener schnitzel dont belong in the same sentence
When it comes to American fastfood chains in Europe, literally every country has different things on the menu. I find the quality of the food can differ dramatically between different restaurants / cities as well. But beer is something thats pretty normal you can get here though lol.
No shit. Beer is always made in the same place and shipped. For food it’s prepared different in every continent
@@Billionaire1998 I was referring to the fact that apparently you can't get beer in a burger king in the US.
You can't get beer in Denmark, even it will be a normal thing for us.
Well i mean every South East Asian McDonald's always comes with rice
There nothing exist as "europe". Europe is not continent, its different lands located in western eurasia.
4:30 oh, and by the way:
Cranberry sauce is for the cheese sticks and cheese nuggets :)
Try it - fried cheese and cranberries go very good together!
@@trollingu I'm gonna touch you
@@trollinguyes
Gross.
@@Sandman_Slim you say that because you never tried...
Cranberry sauce on top of some goat cheese can be delicious...
But americans know nothing about real food and real taste.
@@victoriaabrilvazquez9863 True.
@besteverfoodreviewshow you take on the veggie burger bacon upscale is TOO GOOD 😂
I was travelling around the US on Amtrak several years ago... on the run from Seattle back to Chicago they ran out of burger patties in the dining car (someone ordered extra veggie burgers by mistake) so I asked for a veggie burger with bacon and cheese. It turned out to be really good, and by the next day everyone was eating them.
"never eat a veggie burger, it has chemicals" eats at burger king where food is all chemicals haha. That had me laughing so hard XD
Most American thing I've heard in a while.
And it still has less chemicals than normal processed foods in America because of European food laws prohibiting a lot of them.
I can tell you with confidence that each country has different things on the menu. Most of the times when you find things like these in Spain or in the states, we have NOTHING like that here in Denmark. Usually just plane and simple Burger King in this Country. And no beer at all either.
wow very very nice comment..
This dude is funny but drunk 😂
plane burger?😂😂😂
plane or plain?
@@laff.out.loud_84 it's actually neither, it's superman! now pls enlighten us to how many languages you can write in perfectly?
Yes every country in EU has different items. Best one is Homestyle Crispy Chicken from the Netherlands 😊
you misspelled the McKroket
I prefer German McDonald's than Dutch
There is a core of items available everywhere around the world, but there is also a freedom for countries or regions to customize their menu. Here in Denmark our McDonalds for instance tend to have a few burgers designed by named chefs, for a limited time. Then new burgers from another chef replace them.
Here's the thing, the food laws in Europe are much more strict, so things will look and taste different to the US.
Like potato fries in the UK have 3 ingredients (potato, salt, oil) whereas the US fries have 14 ingredients including an ingredient that is commonly used in expanding foam.
I wouldn't say it's strict, more humane
@@callumnineninenine6886 Is Europe strict, or is it just that the USA is messed up like adding sawdust in their breakfast cereal? At least you're getting enough fiber.
Both, EU laws are strict even compared to Asia and Africa but US is also just so fucked with how companies are allowed to put basically poison in food because they're a cheap sweetener, colouring or preservatives. @@shiroineko13
@@shiroineko13 to be fair, the cellulose from sawdust is used in most countries in europe as well. its not a bad thing either. there are other things that are genuinely unhealthy
This is a misconception. They have the same chemical preservatives that you're thinking of, but the law doesn't require them to list them as ingredients. Same goes for all the other products. The FDA makes the manufacturer list *every single little thing* they put in the recipe in the US, which makes the ingredients list look like chemical soup. The stuff is still in EU food, they just don't have to tell you
I had my first beer at Burger King in Copenhagen in 1986. Been available for decades.
Im from Latvia (its in Europe) and they opened up a Burger King here (had mcdonalds for years, but we have a Finnish company Hesburger too.. "market is tight"), really enjoyed it.
Burgers taste great here, and we have no cranberry sauce :-)
brooo u havent been on my front page for a year and now i realize how much i missed your videos. changed my accounts and some channels slipped through, glad to subscribe here now! xD
Each European country has it's specialities. Up here in northern Europe it's mozzarella, not Gouda, for instance, and vegetarian and vegan options are more. Also whole grain and ciabatta style buns are available many places.
Anyway, I've tried a variety of American franchises in Asia. At KFC you can get a big bowl of chicken soup for instance, and rice is always a choice of course.
@Daniël yea, thought so too, like only the Greek can call a product feta. It's not a trademark per se, but a regionally protected name.
But he's in Spain and he was reading the menu, and said Gouda... Could be that it's just a lower grade of the cheese, still made in the Netherlands? Just like there's also cheaper versions of Dijon sold all over EU, still made in France.
I don't know, but those cheese sticks he had was certainly not mozzarella.
@Daniël so, you're saying that the Gouda slices I can find in Aldi and Lidl are no different than the blocks i can buy at the upscale food markets?
Edit: but yeah, low grade was perhaps not the right words to use. Anyway, you can often find manufacturers within the protected areas that are willing to make a cheaper product.
Mozzarella does have no flavor
@@JohnBerit69 that's correct, that's why so many kids like it... Just like coffee, cantrells, beer, wine and mustard, cheese is also an acquired taste.
However, many of those cheeses with lots of taste don't do so well when melted, some don't get so soft and stringy and some gets rather smelly.
Same reason why singles are still the most used cheese in hamburgers.. real cheddar don't melt that smoothly.
true. northern europe has amazing mcd and kfc menus. gourmet burgers in mcd are top tier. and here in my country (poland) lumberjack sandwich is amazing for cold winter evenings
The menus you saw are exclusives to Spain.
If you come to France for example, you'll see totaly different menus at BK & McDo (don't forget that in France, as Tarantino said, we have the Royal Cheese).
The best burger from Burger King I ever had was in Istanbul Turkey. It was during my connecting flight to get back home to Atlanta. Something about the patty tasted so clean and fresh. I almost forgot I was eating at a fast food place by how good that burger was.
IT's funny because in france like since recently Burger king released a briger reserved for those who had the app called the extra big chili cheese, where they pur chili cheese bites into a burger called chili cheese (a bruger with cheese and jalapenos) and yet here i see it already existed in spain more than a year ago
I know it's for fun, but being in San Sebastian and going into a burger king. Oof, this is real pain
Worse, I think thats is illegal (or should be). :-))
I feel your pain...My man couldv'e been enjoying some Tapas!
@@ibaanworld - in Basque areas like Donostia/San Sebastián those tapas are named *Pintxo* - and yes, those are delicious. That guy is a walking food annoyance.
One thing we don't miss out on are the exclusive menu items in fastfood joints in other countries. It's always an adventure trying these out for the first time. You never know if you're gonna get horrible or surprisingly good stuff.
McDonald's doesn't have these tho. Everything tastes the same everywhere
Cranberry sauce is actually a regular thing with cheese. So normally people would eat it with mozzarella sticks, just like those French and Italian cheese plates with some cranberry jam or plum jam, just that it’s fast food.
Dozens of Burger King's across the Detroit area recently shut down this month. More than 400 employees were let go.
The cranberry sauce is mostly used for fried cheese but also as a dipping sauce for the traditional Viennese Schnitzel:)
Just no. In what kind of crappy universe do you “dip” a Wiener Schnitzel in cranberry sauce? >_
@@fliegenderrobert1379 so wird es traditionell gegessen.
@@fliegenderrobert1379 I guess in the Austrian Universe😂
@@fliegenderrobert1379 Preiselbeeren zu Schnitzel is beste
@@rama4001 Ja preiselbeeren... Aber keine Sauce. Cranberrysauce wird in Deutschland zu 99% mit gebackenen Camenbert gegessen oder als nicht sauce, zu Weihnachten auf deiner Williams Christ Birne(Roh oder Gebacken).
I recently saw a Video of a German RUclipsr testing the McDonalds in the US. He pointed out that the Burgers tasted good/ok but they smell like toilet (probably because of the chlorine - you know in Germany we have Tap Water that you can actually drink and it even tastes good^^) and the pickles looked and tasted AWFUL (I generally don´t like pickles, but those looked really disgusting^^). P.S.: I would think the cranberry sauce is to be used with the CHEESE-items on the menü, not the chicken nuggets^^

@@Herravanrikki right? this is hilariously passive aggressive 😂
We have the same difference between american and canadian mc Donald. I'm able to eat the canadian one but the american version was greasy and tasted weird to me, mainly because of all the chemicals and antibiotics used in USA are illegal here. Our regulations regarding food are similar to what you have in Europe. (I'm a french born canadian)
European here, the burger king app is amazing.Any item on the menu, can be gotten for cheaper with an easy to access coupon from the app. The same coupons are lying around in stores in paper form... sometimes.
I had someone from Minnesota visit last year, we went to a Burger King in Germany. They said normally they don't go to Burger King in the US, because it's not good. But in Germany they liked it very much, their comment to Food in Germany in general was ''For the first time I can taste actual flavours other than Fat and Salt.''
In my time in the military I've eaten a world tour of burgers. Going way back when we were still in Kuwait after the war. We would often stop off at Burger king. Without a doubt I have never had a burger so delicious since. The Pattie was thick and firm and the veggies were fresh and not too many. Biting into the Pattie was like biting into a steak. It was all super tender steak. Obviously made from ground meat with a low fat content. The rolls were freshly toasted and we're firm. Probably the only time when a burger you received actually looked like the picture on the menu.
Was it a regular Burger King or one that serves primarily US service men? Can imagine it makes a big difference
@@ZeekoWay
It was what I consider as a regular Burger King, as it catered for everyone including US Troops and UK Troops, alongside Kuwaitis and everyone else. They food was delicious, cleanliness was top notch. The only thing I didn't like was that you had to follow a two queue system. One for men and one for women. And the men always got served first, so there always a longer queue of women. But I suppose it was a case of " when in Rome ".
It's pretty sad that the best burger you've had was from a fast food chain.
@@stanleyreach8721
It may have been burgers from a fast food chain, but these were off of the chart. Maybe after living off of rations for so long made them taste better, I really don't know, but they were great. I still maintain that these were excellent burgers. Ground beef for sure, with a great steak taste and great texture thrown into. The only need negative were the fries. Although cooked just right, I'm not a fan of 'skinny' fries. The actual outlet had undergone a lot of damage during the war and I have to say, they were up and running soon after it ended. Apart from the burgers being great, it was probably the most hygienic and cleanest food outlet I've been to. 👍👍👍.
Glad I discovered this channel. Very entertaining and enjoyable, it's like a travel and food show in one. Best of luck man.
@Hunter I mean i get your point entirely, since food + travel shows have been huge for the last 20 years, but you saying "what food shows that go abroad dont involve travel " is just adding the 2 genres together for redundancy and then saying an oxymoron afterwords.... because if someone goes ABROAD, THEN THEY ARE ALREADY TRAVELING!!
There are travel shows that don't have food involved, and there are food shows that are not about traveling.
Zero sugar bcoz i am on diet.. Also sonny ordering every fking thing on menu had me laughing 😂 😂 😂
Thinking the same thing... im on a diet and it doesnt seem like a diet and its still less then this...
lmao I love the reasoning: "a veggie burger! with real bacon" hahaha
‘Need a Coca cola Zero, because I’am on a diet’ Saying when ordering fastfood 😂
1500 calories is less than 1600 calories.
Basic math.
Cheers, I find people like you that make the same invalid argument over and over while staying smug kinda annoying.
Don’t give tips nor advice, work on logic.
1500 calories is not a diet.
Basic logic.
Cheers, drink water if you need a diet.
Hey, so I'm gonna be that guy and say that those fast food apps have some amazing deals when my wallet is empty. Getting a soda and free medium fries from mcdonalds or the free burger recently from wendys has helped me a lot so don't shame those that use the apps. It's literally all we got sometimes.
app ordering is nice.. I hate dealing with people, as they mess up my orders. Usually find good deals easier through the apps.
I don't eat McDonald's everyday. Rarely actually. But I have the app to collect points for the times we do and when I'm tight on money, free food is free food
They could've had that offer without the app in the first place, but no, there must be an app for every goddamn thing
100% this. 2 sandwiches for 4.99 with the app or 2 for $20 without? Plus this guy justifies hating on vegetarian food for having chemicals and then chooses the most chemical laden "drink" available cuz diet...lol this guy is what happens when you pay an idiot to do mundane activities
@@MrSN99 of course they must do it, they are selling your data so you're not getting anything for free actually

Chilli cheese bites was my hangover food back when I wasn't sober and its fantastic
Living in the USA I have never had a good time at BK. When I was in Mexico however, it was clean and the foods were properly made and the quality was great!
Living in Canada, I don't envy people living in USA
i love bk here in Florida, never had an issue with them unlike with mcds which has slow and bad service most of the time down here
Yep. I had Wendy’s in the Dominican Republic 🇩🇴 the restaurant was so clean 😊and the food didn’t taste like US Wendy’s wayyy better . Same for domino’s 🍕
@JMah i dont know if your trying to say BK isnt a low job or what, but fast food gets paid next to nothing, im just a step above working in a warehouse and trying to pay bills with what i get is not easy, and i have a good deal on rent, i wouldnt be content working there
Because qualityh food in america doesnt exist. thats the problem. its all chemically artificial cancer causing BS
1:33 💗 from Mumbai, India. Thanks for the mention!!
worse with other brands as local foods are being pushed to avoid too much ingredient and industry disruption via consumer habiit changes
35$ for all of that is pretty cheap! In BC Canada, i can get a quarter pounder meal for like 18$ ...
I'm from Spain, and I've never seen or even heard about cranberry sauce, we definitely do not use it in our cuisine at all, so the fact you found it in a BK in Spain blows my mind. 🤷♂
me neither. we dont have those in the netherlands as well. it sounds kinda disgusting though lol
Isn't cranberry sauce common in the UK? I'm thinking BK might have added it in Spain for your sizeable British population and tourists
Yeah, i'm also from Spain and never saw or heard of Cranberry Sauce in a BK, i will ask for it next time lol
@@zombieguyproducion Nah man, this people come to Spain to eat Spanish food, even if they occasionally eat in a BK, I don't see it happening. I have lived in almost every city in Spain do to my job amd I have never seen something like that before.
I'm a employee from BK in Spain, and yes... we have cranberry sauce too, only for limited time for the old onion cheese complement
“I’m on a diet” proceeds to buy the full menu🤣
There are variations between European Countries. Burger King in Germany is mostly disappointing.
I am surprised he is actually correct about what meat replacements are missing today. They tend to lack fats and oils and therefore tend to be dry. There is not more "chemicals" in them though.
San Sebastian Spain and you are doing fast food?!?!? My soul hurts....can't wait for all the upcoming goodness with real food!
wait... does BK in the US not have the chilli cheese nuggets?
btw. if you happen to be in Germany, now until January you will be able to get the "Big Rösti" at McDonalds in Germany. It's great
warum great der ist mies kacke
Just because Spain is in Europe, doesn't mean that is a European burger king or McDonald's, is a Spanish one. For instance in the Netherlands it's an entirely different menu. Each country has a different menu, not each continent or collection of countries.
Going to Burger King while in San Sebastian should be a crime.
I've tried the veggie whopper (in Belgium) and it tasted very good actually. Didn't go through the trouble of checking the consistency etc of the 'meat'.
Watch the Wallraff documentary about burger king. Pretty sure you did get normal meat patties and nuggets
You are probably eating bugs.
@JMah vegetarian is if there’s no meat, which doesn’t change with the cookwear. If it were a vegan burger the grilling issue would possibly non vegan.
@Clarissa 1986 honestly, seeing rabbits being slaughtered at the age of 6 MUST have had an impact on you. There's a reason why movies and games have age ratings, kids are not supposed to see that sort of stuff, even when it's fake. Now I'm not saying I care too much, nor that I'm a vegetarian. I like meat just as much as you do. All I'm pointing out is that you most probably *do* have issues with that. Your desensitization is not natural, it's one of the issues that your experience has caused.
@Clarissa 1986 your mindset is somehow aligned with that of the society you live in. There are also tribes that kill every person that comes close to them, or societies that jail gay people just because they're gay. The fact that someting is normal in a certain society doesn't mean that it should also be normal in yours, it doesn't even mean that something from that society could happen in yours as an exception without any consequences. And again, slaughtering and experiencing the slaughter of animals DOES have bad consequences. Just do some research on the mental health of slaughterhouse workers. About you, I'm glad you feel like you're that mentally strong, but... Any sources? Have you ever read any papers on it? Have you even visited a psychologist to evaluate your mental health? You might be surprised.
The best Burger King I've EVER had was at a rest stop on the Autobahn going south from Frankfurt to Mannheim. After an 8.5 flight, it was heaven. Best whopper and french fries I've ever had. I think the man working was eager to impress an American. Lol
That's very cute. ^^
Of course a Deutschlander would be excited to serve burgers to an American. If our roles were reversed, I'd be hype, too!
Lol such an American thing to say, also 8.5 hour flight ain't bad at all for a vacation haha
In most ways, Burger King's french fries outclass McDonald's.
You do realise Burger King is British?
@@mariawerner8447 wtf no it's not lol it started in Murica
in Germany we have Chili Cheese burger, double (best bun:meat ratio) and xxl. It's with green Jalapeno, cheese, a cheese sauce and the meat. XXL is a long bread. I think it's a great burger. Unfurtunatley the German Burger King franchises have hygenic issue and I haven't tried it for years because of it.
"Two bottles of wine don't make me an alcoholic, it makes me cultural. I'm in Europe." 😂
In Europe we eat cheese sometimes with different fruit products like jam, fresh or dried. Some do it with apricot, grapes, cherries or berries it depends on the area. So in Germany we would dip cheese sticks in the cranberry sauce which is similar to Preiselbeere Marmelade.
Blue cheese and jam is dope. Very common in france, or with fruit paste (pate de coing).
Nothing better than a cheese platter with some tart fruit jams to smear it on, giving a real nice sweet/tangy mix.
Was ein absurder Zeitgeist, nur noch Möchtegern-Amerikaner unterwegs 😅 Da schreibt der deutsche Durchschnitt plötzlich unter amerikanischen Videos in englischer Sprache 😅
I didn't even see ketchup on the menu though, which feels strange.
A big reason why the major chains are better in Europe is due to a lot of national, regional, and local competition. KFC and Burger King are huge internationally yet they're afterthoughts in the United States because there's way better options. It was smart for them to focus on the international markets.
Oh yeah, KFC is borderline inedible in the US compared to most of Europe.
Nah your guys's food is disgusting😂
@@sleeper4386 y'all bite italian food and german food and call it american
We only got Burger King, McDonald’s and Starbucks in Norway😭😭 Like KFC wouldn’t come to us because we were too small of a country, good thing we can just drive over to Sweden easily and get KFC there though(since I live on the south-east side of Norway).
But I’m kinda glad because even though I tasted KFC both in Sweden and Japan, it was so dry and tasted like nothing..
so my alternative is a Korean fried chicken place called 175C very near where I live, and it’s the most delicious chicken I’ve tasted. I wanted to try the American fried chicken for so long, but Korean fried chicken just seems superior idk.
@@marthe18luck when typing my statement over a year ago I had the ability to get Culvers burgers and next level chicken products along with Jimmy John's on a regular basis; which are top tier fast food restaurants in the US. Since I've typed my original statement Popeyes has established a location in my town offering insane tasting fast food chicken.
It's still been ages since I've had McDonalds, KFC, or Burger King because the other fast food options where I live are better.
Here in Finland we have vegan Whoppers. I eat them now and then and they're quite good although I need to tune them up with hot sauces.
From my entire time in Spain, I have never seen cranberry sauce ever, unless I just missed it.
Although those "chemicals" they use to make synthetic meat in other countries were made illegal by the EU so no frnachise can ever use them again, that's all lab-grown right there. I mean if it has the same amount of protein and other good stuff, I don't see why not we could use synthetic meat for our food crisis.
I'm so used seeing different menus at Mcdonald's or any other American fast food chain in Germany that it is not so unusual to me anymore. I travel there frequently and I get to see the menus in the surrounding countries as well. The thing that was so unusual to me is when I went to a McDonald's in Germany over 30 years ago and they sold beer.
Here in Belgium Mcdonalds offers Jupiler beer cans, it seems unusual but doesn't surprise me.
If you're thinking about doing this in Germany I highly recommend to skip it. A german investigative team of journalists (Team Wallraff) just interviewed employees from selected restaurants with bad online reviews and they also went there disguised as workers and filmed incognito.
Keep in mind they only went to preselected restaurants with bad reputations but their findings were atrocious at best. Burger buns were way past shelf life (some even gnawed on by mice), sauces, vegetables a.s.o. that should only be used for a few hours (and then discharged) get rebadged as fresh and used way longer than they should, preproduced burgers that shouldn't exceed 10 minutes of laying in the shelf got sold after 1 hour, stinky meat (the guy smelled multiple times and acknowledged it was disgusting) was still used and sold to customers and so on and so forth.
I can't remember everything but it was disgusting. In the end the reporters sent explicit questions to Burger King for a statement which immediatelly lead to the closure of the 5 tested restaurants, a little later they announced a total rebuilt of BK all across Germany and sent hundrets of employees to trainings and auditings.
The worst part is that this is the second time this team unveils such conditions, they made a similar report 8 years ago.
Another bad thing is that they try to make it look like the workers were at fault when it's clearly the head management that failed time after time after time again - and they didn't make any changes to head management or franchisees.
I only ate there like twice a year but I'm gonna stay away for a couple of years for sure.
Yes! This was absolutely disgusting. Especially because they had a similar scandal some years ago, closed a bunch of restaurants and promised they will secure food safety and hygiene in the future. Now I know why I got diarrhea two times from BK food. Absolutely awful. Mices, employees with unwashed hands who switched off the cooler while they were inside because they didn't like the food, mouldy buns.. I guess the employees give a .. like their franchise bosses give a .. about them. But never experienced this level of carelessness despite some other disgusting reports about McDonalds etc this in any McDonalds/KFC or Subway. I don't know what Burger Kings problem is. Today I walked by our closest BK and they washed the walls outside with a garden hose. Clean INSIDE! Not OUTSIDE!
They don't have regulators who come review the different restaurant locations?
@@Allaiya. Of course, but often times franchisees have multiple restaurants and after one got hit all the others get cleaned immediately. Also many of the owners in one area know each other so they give heads up to the others when inspectors are in town.
@@Allaiya. They have some by the municipality but they are massively understaffed. And as long as the violations don't go beyond a certain line, they issue a fine and give them a report which states what they have to change or at worst close down the place for a time period. Then they control again. If everything is fine - they reopen the place. Maybe they control a second time in the closer future but they are such understaffed that the system fails everywhere.
Cmon thats just ridic... We all know Wallraff is an atention seeking idiot! Totaly overreaction here! With a lil bit of common sense you can go to BK and McD without problems... I mean you can tell within 5 seconds if its a good Restaurant (like 99%are) or if you entered a bad one... Most kitchens are open and you can watch the workers while they prepare the food! You can also see the ingredients and if they are fresh or not...
I know so many friends who worked at McD or BK and never i heard things like Wallraff "discovered".
Like you already said, they went to Restaurants with rly low Rankings and they wanted to find things there... Not objektive or investigative at all...
Why dont they go to all the Restaurants with great Rankings and check there? Yeah right, cuz people wouldnt care about then... And we all know Wallraff wants to get atention more than anything...
Sry if i sound crazy or angry, but i just cant understand why you would hate on a Restaurant chain and boykott them cuz 1% of them are bastards and serve you rotten food.
I mean you have that everywhere. Like 1% of the Döner at least. Or KFC Vapiano Subway and so on. 🤷♂️
Ffs even our moms prly used bad food 1% of the time and we are still alive xDD
Just go to Restaurants, watch how they work and leave if you have a bad feeling after 10 seconds. No reason to stay away for years or some bs. You are not doing a favor to anyone this way...
Peace ✌️
haha! So fun to see you in my city :D I never heard of cranberry sauce either and I'm a local!! Anyway, Basque food is something else... Can't be compared :P
1:00 you should come to Venice during the carnival 😂
you can even have more or less different menu items in a same country... for example in belgium in a big city you can find many different choices at mcdonalds but in a smaller town you'll have less choices which is sad xD but it's kind of normal because they need to plan stock ahead of time and if people took many different items they'd still have too much stock for other options
I remember my first night out on my first time in Ibiza... Me and my friends absolutely drunk after the club apparently we stopped by McDonalds and got a mountain of Happy Meals with beer... We don't remember but we had the packages all over our villa and receipt to give us some insight... Gotta love Spanish McD!
ketchup and mustard are the de facto sauces, but when you're ordering they'll only show you the "special" stuff. You can just go to the counter at any given time and ask for ketchup and mustard packets.
I am a german Guy and I never seen a French Fries Tower, Cranberry, a Bucket: Chicken Wings, Beer or what ever is placed on the thumbnail...
here in Switzerland we have beer at McDonald's and Burger King. There aren't a lot of KFC's in my area so can't say if they have it too.
I can tell you in Belgium, they have Xtra long chilli cheese which is super tasty, long bread and they put jalapanos in it I love spicy Indian food that's perfect for me yeah I'm not convinced about Spanish BK either, the McDonald looks good though
Jalapeños are Mexican.......
The X-tra Long Chili Cheese in Germany is awesome + the Chili Cheese Nuggets. On the Specialmenu: Danish King (Hot Dog style Burger), King Chorizo Beef and the King Grana Padano Beef.
omg yes chilli cheese nuggets are the best and i love that chrispy chicken with extra cheese and bacon on top i get it evry time i go to bk XD
Well... the Chorizo on the King Chorizo Beef doesn't look exactly like Chorizo but... it is acceptable...
One thing I noticed, especially McDonald's is they seem to have a much greater selection. McDonalds in the US since Covid has greatly paired down their menu as they have greatly increased price. McDonald;s in Spain seems like McDonald's in the US 5 years ago.
In Poland you can get beer at any fast food place. Be it KFC, McD, BK... Love Poland! Greetings from boring Norway.
I love Norway nature.
I am cranberry addict American! I have to have turkey dinner for every holiday and birthday with tons of cranberry haha. Ocean Spray tried to make cranberry sauce in a squirt bottle so I could take it with me everywhere, but it was just never the same as the can, and was discontinued pretty quick.
Bacon everything.
Bacon WITH cranberry ?
8:48 The "King Wiener Schnitzel" in Germany. As an Austrian I feel very offended.
"Personalize.......can i write my name on it??!"
😂😂😂😂 bruh
I heard that we Germans have with the Mc Ribb something that not every European country has regularly. What we sometimes have are Octoberfest specials. One of it is something sweet called "Germknoedel". You should definately try it out.
Da spricht ja jemand ganz tolles Englisch. Was ein absurder Zeitgeist, nur noch Möchtegern-Amerikaner unterwegs 😂
i realy like the mcrib but they removed it from the menu in The Netherlands😡
Most of stuff you have in Germany I never saw in Slovene McDonald's.
In the Netherlands: the McKroket!!
btw im quite sure the machine beer order is just so you can be charged in case youre not over 18. so if you confirm on the machine, it already counts as an attempt to buy alcohol, so when youre about to pick up the food, the employee is responsible to confirm if youre really above 18, either by visual or checking your ID. im sure if you look under 18, they will ask for ID and if your ID says youre below 18, they might even call the police
That's easy just say you forgot it, that's what I used to do when I was too young to gamble and they would ask for my id. Sure you won't get the beer but at least you won't get in trouble.
they gonna confirm, but nobody is gonna call the police for that nonsense.
@@notyourdamnbusiness8795 You would be suprised how many Karens go on power trips againts teenagers
@@richyket661 the police wouldnt even show up for this nonsense.
"a young man tries to buy beer."
"just dont give it to him then."
@@richyket661 yes exactly. You can do that a thousand times without anything happening, but one karen and youre fucked. One time two of my friends went to buy beer for a party at my house (i was still at work), they called me, telling me the cashier doesnt give them the beer because they cant show ID. You can buy beer at age 16 here… they were 23/24 years old 😂 another friend of mine used to buy beer for the entire group when he was 13 because he already had a beard and crazy chest hair. Never failed once from what i know. He could even buy vodka which is 18+
actually Burguer king here in PT and ES usually charges the price next day. praying for u sonny
3:48 seems like chicken nugget, I won't be supprised if they got your order wrong 😂
You know, we have veg impossible whoppers here in the US and and I tried one once. I found they taste just like the regular whoppers except for the lack of grease. Where sonny does like the juices and grease though, I actually appreciate the lack of grease. I hate having greased up hands and a stained shirt. So while I am definitely a meatavore and love chicken, steak, venison and pork, I like to get impossible whoppers at Burger King just for the less messy burger. BTW, impossible whoppers are not healthier than regular whoppers, just no meat and less messy.
Nice try. 6/10 on the attempt to fool anyone into eating soy whoppers. The lie is perceptible, though.
I eat plant based whoppers for the same reason sometimes lots of grease is not what i want.
Same actually, In the rare few times I actually get to have Burger King, I always get the Impossible whoppers. Doesn't stop me from eating meat at any other time, I just prefer Impossible when I have burgers.
I am so glad it has been over 20 years since the last time I had Booger King! I worked at BK in Texas and is one of the most awful things I have ever done. Serving people this matter they call burgers and then charging them for it was painful to my soul.
plus with fast food in america its even more dodgey compared to europe, because most of the added chemicals are illegal here
Sonny: "We have the most annoying laws around alcohol."
Middle East: "Hold my Ayran..."
@@NonsensicalSpudz no one asked
@@Sniper200g who asked you
I underhand what you mean. I have work for mcdonald's and you'll never see the chains the same ever again after working in fast food. Swedish burger king is dry and has the worst quality in all of Sweden.
Cranberry sauce is for the cheese sticks its so good with everything cheesy ... not used for pommes frites
This ladies and gentleman is a guys face that just noticed that fastfood in Europe is diversed, we add some chemicals onto our food and not some food onto our chemicals.
Got the King Huevo in Spain earlier this year and loved it. I thought BK had a great menu in Spain.
The reasons people would order vegetarian burgers is probably either cause they dont like the idea of animals as a foodsource or because they are against how animals are being held and treated in our society of mass production and consumption. If it tastes good and basicly the same I dont really see a reason not to order it, as long as the ingredients are decent.
Wow. Glad you said that. No one knew. 🙄
@@melissadunton3534 the only reason I said it is because sonny said he has no idea why anyone would order these burgers after saying it tastes good and basicly the same
I'm not a vegetarian. But I order vegetarian whoppers from BK simply because they taste better than the regular whopper, imo.
Oh I assure you, we do have fast food in Russia 😂 Mc Donald's may have left and sold their restaurants to a local franchise, but for Burger King and KFC it's business as usual (plus it's way cheaper than in Europe since ingredients and packaging are locally sourced).
BK has had this limited time "Siberian menu" which was crowned by the "Siberian King"; beef or chicken patty, bacon, mustard, horseradish sauce, pickles, cheddar, onion and tomato slices slices, and iceberg lettuce, all in a rye bread bun.
We also have those touch-screen counters.
It's no secret: The standard American diet is at the root of the obesity epidemic and many of its associated diseases.
But why is American food so unhealthy? It's not just that Americans eat too much, which they do, but it's also what they eat that's unhealthy: fat, sugar, salt and ultra-processed foods.
According to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, the average American diet consists of excess salt, saturated fat, refined grains, calories from solid fats and added sugars.
Americans also eat fewer vegetables, fruits, whole grains, dairy products and oils than recommended. Nearly 42% of American adults are obese, statistics from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show.
One reason may be that healthy foods are often more expensive than packaged foods. Packaged foods tend to have higher amounts of salt, refined grains, sugar and unhealthy oils not recommended by the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. The CDC notes that high blood pressure and high cholesterol caused by consuming too much salt are the leading causes of heart disease and stroke. Current guidelines recommend getting less than 2,300 milligrams (mg) of salt a day, but most Americans consume more than 3,400 mg a day, on average.
The culprit? More than 70% of the salt that Americans eat comes from packaged, processed, store-bought and restaurant foods, the CDC says.
"Ultra-processed foods are designed to fire up cravings and desire for these foods, and advertising-which is everywhere-reinforces those urges," Samantha Heller, a senior clinical nutritionist at NYU Langone Health in New York City, said recently. "It is not the fault of the consumer that they long for ultra-processed foods. But it is up to us to recognize the manipulation by food companies and to take control of what we choose to eat."
Choosing unhealthy foods does more than pack on the pounds: Being overweight or obese ups the odds of developing type 2 diabetes. Among U.S. adults, 96 million have pre-diabetes, according to the CDC. Diabetes can lead to poor circulation resulting in amputations, and the blood sugar disease is also linked to vision loss and kidney disease.
In addition, the CDC says an unhealthy diet can increase the risk of some cancers. Eating unhealthy food and drinks can lead to chronic conditions that put people at higher risk of at least 13 types of cancer, including uterine cancer, breast cancer in postmenopausal women, and colon cancer. Colon cancer is also associated with eating red and processed meat.
Part of the problem, according to the CDC, is access to healthy food. Food is all around people, but much of it isn't healthy. Grocery stores have aisles and aisles of foods packed with sugar, salt and unhealthy fats. Only a fraction of store space is devoted to healthy vegetables, fruits and whole grains. The agency says that more access to healthy foods is needed in communities, at work and at school.
The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine urges people to switch to a plant-based diet rich in fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Your diet should limit carbs, red meat and dairy, they say.
Speaking about the obesity epidemic among America's teens, Dr. David Katz, a specialist in preventive and lifestyle medicine and president of the True Health Initiative, said it's a losing battle that's been waged for more than three decades.
"Stated bluntly, this a national disgrace, because this problem is one with dire consequences that we could fix any time we genuinely committed to doing so," Katz said recently.
What's needed is a cultural change and a commitment to a healthier lifestyle. Obesity rises relentlessly because whole industries profit from it, he pointed out.
"The problem worsens because far more resources are invested in propagating the problem than in fixing it," Katz added. "We know, for instance, that we have a food supply of willfully addictive junk food designed to maximize eating, yet make futile recommendations for 'portion control' without addressing the root cause."
Love a burger king. I find them to be way more inconsistent than McDonalds though but when they get it right...so good!
