Then again, I haven't had one one twenty years.

The best? Maybe Five Guys? A good but not great burger, in my view, but wow are spreading like crazy all over Europe.

        I have something that will take the chill off the air. - Hensou - 4:55pm 8/12/25

    - Glazed donut smashburgers with cheese and smoked bacon are a millennial and Gen Z craze. - Hensou - 12:37pm 8/12/25

        Never buy cologne at a gas station. [NT] - Hensou - 3:34pm 8/12/25
        If you are going for gas station pizza and coffee, might as well go for the trifecta. - NedoftheHill - 3:44pm 8/12/25
        I heard gas station sushi is pretty raw. - Hensou - 4:58pm 8/12/25
        
        I can't speak to gas-station pizza, but coffee?? - jakers - 3:08pm 8/12/25

        You randy bumpkin! [NT] - Hensou - 2:47pm 8/12/25
      - The portions are also too small there for the price. - jakers - 12:23pm 8/12/25
        Yeah. I think they raised prices. Smaller portions, too...which might be a good thing. - NedoftheHill - 12:49pm 8/12/25
        They raised prices but so have everyone else. - WoodstockIrish - 9:00pm 8/12/25
        
        5 Guys is too close in price to a burger at a restaurant to not have it cooked the way I want it... [NT] - TakethetrainKnute - 1:06pm 8/12/25
  - Solid reporting. Thank you. [NT] - Hensou - 11:29am 8/12/25
- I like them, when done the right way. I make them on my flat top and they come out great. - TampaIrish - 10:45am 8/12/25
  - Homemade are probably better than chain places. You probably use a better grade of beef. [NT] - Hensou - 10:51am 8/12/25
