US vs UK Burger King | Foreign Exchange | Food Wars
Note: That's not rice in the American breakfast burritos. Those are hash browns lol
Yeah I had it its hash brown patty in it not rice.
If he can’t tell the difference they can’t be great hash browns!
Rösti hast des
the fact that he can't tell hashbrowns vs rice is hilarious.
@@1985toyotacamrywhat is the point in commenting if your literally just going to repeat the exact same thing they said
Whopper is definitely not a regular insult in the UK. I've genuinely never heard anyone call someone that.
Same! Never heard that in the UK in my life
Yeah no
If you want common is suits they wouldn’t have
Spanner and tool are far more common
Also muppet but I’m not sure if that exists in the US
@@jmurray1110 yeah spanner, tool and Muppet I've heard lots of times for sure
@@ManchesterIsNotReal closest I can think is 'whopping' as in if you call someone something like a 'whopping great big bellend'
ive heard whopper as related to big but not an idiot
I love the fact that Harry's British side is showing with his knowledge of princes dukes and archbishops.
I dunno, baron burgers/burger barons sounds like a great name for a chain... Wait, hold on, I gotta trademark this one 🧐😂
Meanwhile, Joe is all over the place.
I love how far harry has come, the early episodes he got rinsed for being boring but now i love him and joe equally
Idk why but I started of preferring Harry but now joe and Harry are equal
Harry and Joe are literally the best kind of ying and yang! I could happily watch a whole series of just the two of them exploring different foods.
I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that over the seasons we've been given a lot of other people other than Joe as well as from the other countries. And some of them are very bland. Specifically the people that replace Joe. Now the most recent one the woman I actually like but a lot of the other ones are so bland that actually made watching some of the episodes hard because they lacked personality. So when Harry comes back after we've seen somebody else we love him
The reason the Chocolate Oreo shake doesn't taste correct is because the shakes are made with Hershey's chocolate syrup. Oreo is owned by Mondelez, not Hershey. The cookie bits in both the regular and the chocolate Oreo shakes are made with Oreo cookie bits which come in a blue bag and get a 10 day hold time. I used to be a manager at a Burger King. From my point of view, Burger King is not competitive with its shakes, but unfortunately the Taylor shake/soft serve machines can be a pain to deal with so I think there is a costly issue with that; they'd rather keep things simple and as inexpensive on their end as possible.
Sorry, I prefer Hershey's. I like the slightly bitter flavor to it.
I'm not quite sure what you're talking about. Hershey's chocolate syrup does not have a bitter taste, but it is overwhelmingly sweet and artificial tasting; it tastes like fake chocolate.@@PapagenoMF
You guys should do a foreign exchange of UK Christmas dinner and US thanksgiving!! I would love to see that
Why wouldn’t it just be Christmas v Christmas?
@@houseofscarn We don't have an equivalent. I think the holiday we have round that time would be Fireworks Night / Guy Fawkes Night which doesn't have a meal to it, just people getting hammered down the pub.
@@mouthyschannel2474 roger that, I truly didn’t even realize lol
I'm loving this foreign exchange series next it's going to be the US exchanging with Japan than India. It's going to be amazing I want to try these other countries but damn I would have to go across the pond to do that lol
He gotta try the teriyaki McBurger,it’s heaven in a nutshell.probably the best burger at all of the world’s McDonald’s.
Show the UK some love let them do the exchange, anyways they did have the buggest empire.
The 'Pond' is vernacular for the Atlantic. You would have to go across the Pacific to try Japanese and Indian food.
PLEASE NOTE:
Funnily enough I work in Burgerking in UK as a store manager and love your videos. We do in-fact sell the whopper Jr and triple whopper on our menus in store but not around drive thru. It’s a weird company idea !
Thought I’d let you know : )
Weird I don't see why that would make any sense
We do sell them in the drive thru??? In Scotland
A lot of the things that aren't on the uk menu you can get by asking, eg the triple whopper, you can actually add as many patties to burgers as you like. Had to make a bacon double xl with 10 patties once. Also a lot of the things the american bk has are things we used to have but got discontinued like the oreo shakes
Yeah, the whopper jr and triple whopper used to be on the menu on the UK, but were removed. The bacon king they removed twice for some bizarre reason. They even used to sell the double quarter pounder at one point.
Secret menu…
Another fantastic episode from the two main men in Food Wars! Keep em coming!
"You don't need that much meat, you need lubrication" - Harry 2023
No,meat should be the star,and should be dripping with cheese!
Humongous fan of food wars. Hope the series and variations of it keeps going!!!
Burger King in the U.K. used to do the Crossantwich, but they seem to have discontinued it a few years ago.
The one thing I wish they'd do differently with this concept is mic Harry and Joe up while the other one is trying food.
Amazing video editing skills! Great job Katya Kupelian!!!
French toast is very much a UK thing. Most cafes and breakfast places sell it. You can get it sweet or savoury. When I make it at home in Glasgow I have it sweet but my wife prefers it savoury. So without any sugar or syrup.
I've never seen it in England. Which part of the UK in particular? Is it a Scottish thing?
@Kjfletcher1985 had it quite often growing up in Wales. Assumed it was a UK-wide thing but it may be more common in some areas. I had mine savoury
@Kjfletcher1985 it's definitely all over UK. Some people might call it eggs bread rather than making it the proper sweet way.
I never had sweet French Toast, and will 'never' eat it either, savory is the only way that I will eat it. Btw, I make at at home.
@frederickmoller I used to only have savoury but when making at home I only add a little sugar to the egg mix. Helps the french toast get crunchier.
Woah I didn’t even know you guys switched it up, now this is epic 😎😎😎
They need to bring Harry to Texas so he can get to know some good Texas BBQ/Tex-Mex food
More food tours pls .. they are the most fun
Joe not liking pickles is so wrong.
Also, Harry, tell all of your british friends to stop comparing biscuits to scones, you always say "Oh It'S LiKe A sCoNe, BuT iT's NOT"
I love these swaps.
You two are the best. Should totally do a bit of a world food travel show.
If you don't get onion rings with your meal, you fail
A whopper with cheese is simply great, love the flame grilled taste. I still like a chicken royale over McDonalds chicken burgers etc. I loved the Spicy Beanburger, ahead of it's time. Also, they did do jalapeno poppers for a while years back, they were like crack when I worked there....PS their mini hash browns for breakfast were just as good also!!
You’re a whopper 😂
I prefer the Chicken Royale as well, but they've been adding way too much mayo recently. No idea why they have changed it.
@@debbee0867 they have an abundance of eggs, so they make mayonnaise with it and they have too much
That egg-normous burrito looks way smaller than it should be. Mine was massive when I got one when they were first introduced.
Awesome swipe joe and harry
Looks like Burger King stepped up their game in the UK. There were my favourite fast food burger place in the mid 2000s but they went downhill. I'll have to them again.
I go back on occasion to test as was my favourite then to. It has been improving again and last couple times was quite good. Still not as good as they where but I haven't had that cold unmelted added cheese got for awhile lately.
You might just have a bad restaurant of burger king one you tend to go to. City I live in has 3 burger kings last time I looked it up, might be more these days
The bacon double XL is my go to. It goes on offer from time to time on their app to
working at a bk rn and this video appearing on my feed genuinely made me feel like i can’t escape it 😭
Foreign Exchange is the best! Love Insider Food!
Damn, I just Googled the Burger King's Mushroom Double Swiss, and it was discontinued 20 years ago?? Miss that bad boy....
I really like seeing the difference in food culture in different countries
Well, it´s NOT about the difference at food culture, it´s about international food chains ripping a customer off in a way he used to know :)
If i remember correctly the "Rodeo" burger was marketing tie-in for the movie "Wild Wild West" (starring Will Smith) which was released in the 90s... Well that was a the case with the UK anyway. The Rodeo was my go to burger in the UK. I Didnt even know they changed the name.
You guys should try to come to France to have a taste at our Burger King menu, which is quite good I have to say (Double Steakhouse ftw)
I'm convinced at this point that Harry is an American masquerading as a British person purely to denigrate our food. Evidence:
1. Claims to prefer liquid "cheese" on burgers to actual cheese
2. Claims to prefer American streaky bacon to British back bacon
3. Claims that American food has more flavour when it mainly just has more corn syrup and fat. Calling British food bland is a real lazy stereotype
4. Inventing slang. Literally never heard anyone call someone else a whopper as an insult in my 43 years of living in Britain
I could go on, cmon Harry stand up for us
Burger King UK until the late 90's used to do a spicy bean burger and it was my favourite burger, used to order it all the time and I kinda miss it. I love a triple whopper, my order is always triple whopper with cheese, 2xheavy cheese and no onions. The chilli cheese bites rock :)
They did the spicy bean burger up until the 2010’s. I was disappointed when they got rid of it too, being a vegetarian. Their plant Whopper is pretty good though as far as fake meat goes.
I really hope you do a Five Guys swap, so the UK bacon can be redeemed, although idk how much would be different apart from the milkshakes
Sure thing,cause what’s the point of consuming bacon if it’s wet and not crispy?
I never choose bacon in my takeaway burgers. They don't look appetising or taste great. It should be crispy bacon.
Excellent video
Bacon Double Cheeseburger XL has been my go to burger for years now, but in a shock twist the Covid pandemic forced my local restaurant to close and it hasn't reopened 😭😭😭😭 I am still super bummed about that.
The spicy mayo BANGS
In BK Venezuela we have a burguer called RODEO STACKER, which have onion rings, bacon, meat and stacker sauce, AND IT SLAPS. One of my favorite burguers of all time
The US has the Rodeo King. It's just like the rodeo burger but bigger and they added mayo. It's no longer on the "official" menu but they have no issues making it if you order it. My local BK even still has it in their system.
Yeah, just secret menu hack a whopper to be like the Rodeo Burger. The Rodeo Burger used to be a secret menu hack before it was even on the official menu.
@@morrius0757 How long ago was that? It was on the menu in 1989.
I usually just order a plain hamburger take everything off add barbecue sauce then get a side of onion rings
amazing video!
I love dis series
You've never had french toast Harry but you've just described having french toast... eggy bread is french toast Harry
surely there is pain perdu in the UK...?
@@julieb7031 yes eggy bread is french toast
Eggy bread and French toast are not the same thing.
@@itsDietrichyes they are. Dip some bread in egg, stick it on a frying pan that's eggy bread or french toast whatever you want to call it. My mum always called it "egg toast" so that's what I grew up with 🤷
@@Zoom15000French toast is eggs , milk and cinnamon, not just eggs.
Native Memphian and i agree, more Memphis style foods on the menu.
we need to get some episodes with german vs Usa would be huge i think its gonna be really different between those two countrys
I bloody love this series🫶
20:59 the bald eagle screams how important sugar is inferior to high fructose corn syrup!let’s go HFCS!
UK Burger King seems pretty elite 🔥
These boys don’t just swap countries they swap pops 😂
☁️🍆
Spot on with renaming the junior to Prince, makes sense.
The rodeo burger used to be a long burger in the uk, not been to BK in about 5 years now so must of changed stuff.
Hershey's Sundae Pies are 🔥 if you get them out of the freezer fresh.
Why is this video so engaging
Love these series can’t wait for more
Here in Switzerland we have Bulls Eye Sauce, its made by Heinz.
Now I want some Rodeo burgers from BK, but I don't feel like getting out in this southern heat. lol
1 hour people where are you guys
Here
👋
I’m not here
😂😂
Here
I just ate the BK Spicy Butter Chicken sandwich. It was lacking in sauce and dry, but still had flavour and a nice little kick
I used to get croissnwiches at the BK near Holborn Station. So, I know they very recently used to be available in the UK.
Those are the best, but the calorie count is off the chart. A double croissandwich is 2400 calories!
Hard to find a bk that does breakfast in uk
You two are the main reason I subbed and only watch you two, really look forward to your uploads :)
I wonder if its because of "shrinkflation" because I remember when the "Eggnormous" Burrito came out, that thing was MASSIVE.. now its this tiny pauktry thing that will barely fill you up. And yes, their hash browns and fries used to taste better, now they taste of old grease, disappointment and sadness.😮
I’m watching this whilst currently feeling sick and I love BK but this is making me feel sick 😂😂
I assume their Texas whopper is suppose to be their version of a Whataburger which is burger chain in Texas.
Re Texas burger: Yes. I was born and have lived in TX my entire life. As a region, we tend to put mustard on our burgers. Also, although we are rightfully known for our barbecue, it’s less sauced and more dry rubbed. The dipping condiment known as barbecue sauce is not really our thing.
this is lovely
Burger King’s Big King XL/XXL was their best burger… Petition bring it back 🙏🏻
If they have stacker sauce like our Burger King does then they should be able to make it if u ask for it
Where can I find that video of Joe's UK Burger King tour?
I used to work for burger king and was a manager there . We used to serve the rodeo burgers here . We used to serve a chicken whopper and chicken whopper jr we also served a spicy bean burger we also used to serve milkshakes and ice cream and diddy donights and warm chocolate brownies we also used to serve chicken stripes back then it used to be five alive for kids meals drinks we also used to have a big king which was burger kings version of the big Mac
I have tried both UK and US BK's Oreo Milk Shake. Absolutely love it!
For UK, I could only get it in London and Manchester though. Weird
“Step up your chemical game” lol the tf
Oreo Cookie Shake is the best fast food milkshake you can get at a place that doesn’t specialize in shakes and that’s not named Culver’s
Had BK like two weeks ago now and I'll be having em again soon cause of this.
Very weird that he's never experienced French Toast here in the UK!
Food wars got to do a pollo campero food wars edition
Chicken Royale with cheese is my favourite, however every so often you do get a crap one that is almost like eating mayo doused cardboard. I find you get better food if you go in and buy it at the counter, rather than having it delivered, or going round the drive-through .
Our bk fries are terrible, always so dry. I used to be able to get a meal and swap chips for onion rings, but I think they’ve stopped it now. 0:30 😊
We used to have the Whopper Jr. in the UK!
Considering the portions sizes, I'm surprised the Whopper Jr isn't a menu item in the UK.
Chicken Royale was my go to as a kid!
Best menu on burger king for me is chicken fries and nuggets aswell as Bacon King, they're so so good
Makes me hungry for a burger king right now
I don't know where they went for these, but we have the rodeo burger in the UK. Or at my local in Lincoln at the very least.
23:27 don't start a war...
I feel like they don’t do very good research for these things.
Whopper junior is on the UK menu.
Also some BK places do the triple whopper as part of the menu. You can get them anywhere by asking but I’ve seen it as standard in some places.
The laziness when the one restaurant they want to didn’t have a specific item too. I mean it’s what the entire series is about, go to the next restaurant along to get it ffs.
I'm glad Harry called it 'UK fast food bacon' to differentiate it from our proper bacon as we have some great bacon producers. The fast food stuff is always horrible and definitely should be crispy as Joe mentioned.
Looks like the Peckham BK at the end of the vid!
Hey wait...why the heck is it all "junior" instead of "prince" anyhow? That's brilliant, BK needs to latch onto that idea! 👑
Have you guys done Chipotle yet?
I am loving this new series.
You need to do the Japan USA switch next.
I, from this moment on, shall be known as the Arch duke of beef
I love these shows but if you could explain how you achieve these comparisons would be very helpful. As an example are one of you in the US and the other in the UK, or do you fedex the meals in a cooler? 😂 need more clarity on this.
Joe didn't like the cheese & bacon Chicken Royale? Damn that's an absoluter banger imo
BBQ sauce would make it a Kansas City Whopper
So sad that Harry's first time trying French Toast was at a BK........breaks my foodie soul.
Triple Whopper is my go to but I always open it up and put a patty on top and get a gravy to dip it in....mmmh ! Now I dont get fries or pop beacuse that is a lot of food just the burger & gravy :)
Chilli cheese bites are god level tier! Give them some respect,
Basically cheese balls but some cheeky spice has been brought to life?
I'm eating BK too! I got the Big Fish today.
Hayy, multiple times i have had a Burger King cheese burger before 10am.
