As a southerner born and raised, I can tell you that nobody in the south would be caught dead eating McDonald's biscuits and gravy. To us, that is not even real biscuits and gravy.
Travis Reifke: Like the grits in My Cousin Vinny. haha
@@LA_HA Haha! Yes! "No self-respecting southerner uses instant grits."
@@travisreifke4356 Unless they have magic grits. Ha
@@LA_HA "I'm a fast cook I guess."
Sonic ice is super small pellets that are very soft. It’s amazing like they said on a hot day.
GE has a countertop icemaker. The opal nugget. It makes Sonic ice.
Biscuits and gravy are great. I would rather eat that than a full English breakfast. Buttermilk biscuits with sausage gravy poured over it. One of my all-time favorite breakfast meals.
Amen!
Yes 100% agree, but not from McDonald's though.
Nah full English breakfast all the way.
As Canadian, (so a commonwealth nation, but also obviously your oil neighbours up north), i’ve never encountered a rendition of either. If i had to choose just from what i’ve seen, the full english sounds more appealing
No way scones and gravy is beating a full English take a look in the mirror lads 😂
Fun fact: The first time Gordan Ramsey went to a Inn Out, he went through the drive thru to order a burger. He parked his car, ate the burger, liked it so much, he went inside to order another one.
ITS FCKING SHITE
Fun fact: the best thing to do with In and Out, is the place it directly into the trash where it belongs.
@@ColinRichards1 is trash code for your mother’s mouth. Lol
@@ColinRichards1 damn bro chose violence today😂
@@ColinRichards1 OH and what to you reckon is sooooo much better. And since you don't even live in SoCal. Ummm. Eat it... You live in Washington state right???
Cook Out is AMAZING!!! I only recently discovered them a few years ago when I moved to the East Coast from California. When I was living in Virginia there was a Cook Out franchise being constructed 2 blocks from my home with a sign saying "Coming Soon" and I thought to myself "This is gonna be dangerous." A week before their grand opening I was relocated to the DC area which doesn't have the franchise. My job relocating probably saved my life lol
Fried cheese curds are different then cheese sticks. Those from Culvers are really bouncy and squeak when you bite into it.
I'm from Oklahoma where Sonic started, and i can tell you, people will drive out of the way and go buy 10 pound bags of Sonic ice because it's loved so much. Its damn near a food group here lol
Just to address MIke's question as to why Whataburger doesn't go nation-wide - everything is super fresh so the stores have to be really close to the distribution centers of which there aren't that many. They don't freeze their beef so it can't travel far.
I mean Five Guy maintains fresher ingredients than whataburger, and I remember going to Five Guys where they only had one location and they now are in more countries than whataburger is in different states.
@@ColinRichards1 Having had both, I found 5 Guys rather pretentious, more expensive, and not as good a WB. Not that they have gone worldwide I'm sure their "fresher ingredients" are not quite so fresh.
I am a truck driver based out of Northern California and I feel spoiled rotten right about now. Not only do I have an In-N-Out burger and a Chick-fil-A down the street from my house and arguably some of the best Mexican food close to me I also drive from coast to coast and eat most of the things in this video including Whataburger when I'm down in Texas or Bojangles in the Carolinas.
If you're ever in Chicagoland get the Cake Shake from Portillos. It's life changing.
YESSSSS!!! I flew back home last month and went to Portillo’s on the way back from the airport for Italian beef, cheese fries, and a chocolate cake shake!
As a kid, I got Bojangles a lot before school. I usually got a streak biscuit but the chicken biscuit was excellent, too. As Daz said, Krystal's and White Castle are basically the same thing and they're actually a great greasy fast food to enjoy one in a while. They taste better than they look. They're not an amazing burger, but they're a fun guilty pleasure once in a while.
The fast food that slaps the hardest around here in Minnesota and Wisconsin is hands down Culver's. The bacon deluxe burger with a side of cheese curds can't be beat fast food in this area of the country
We have them here in Georgia. Was a nice addition to what we already have.
We just got a Culver's where I live in Ohio about a year ago. They fucking slap, 24/7 the line is wrapped around the building. I only eat fast food a few times a year but I always choose them now. I get the Patty Melt on sourdough bread with cheese curds on the side.
Have them in Missouri too, never had a bad meal in years going there.
Arizona, too. Love it.
We have them here in South Dakota...well, at least in Sioux Falls.
The "chew-ability" of Sonic's ice is just an ancillary benefit of its small/crushed size...the purpose of the size is to leave less air space in the cup for liquid, thereby protecting profits by making actual volumes delivered smaller.
In 2021 they made 3.9 billions pounds of just cheddar in the US. Are we going to let the EU PDO and geographical/cultural laws stop that? $%#$ no. By the way, most UK and US cheddar is colored to look orange. The pasture-fed cows used to produce orange-tinged cheese but not these days. It is mostly white coming off the tubs.
This is maybe the weirdest comment I’ve ever seen
Cheese is #ChunTastic
The biggest inhibitor to regional chains going nationwide (IMO) is the logistics of supplies - there needs to be warehouses within reasonable distance to the stores to supply them, so it's not just a case of building the restaurants themselves, but also the costs involved in supply chains. Places like Whataburger pride themselves on using fresh ingredients so having sources close by is a must.
And y'all know how big the US is!
White Castle sliders are sold in grocery stores around the US, frozen and microwaveable. Great late night snack food because you can have one or twenty depending on your state. The cheeseburger/onion ones often sell out in supermarkets. Awesome microscope treat.
I so luv them 💓
"Depending on your state"😂I've been in some states. More than 50, ya might say
@@jdawg3629 He meant intoxication level.
@@jordandale85 I think he did to. That's why there would be more than 50.
Vaucresson, apart from being a place in Paris, is also a local Creole sausage maker that partners with that hot dog place.
I love Cook-out. Yes, really inexpensive, and good food. As a side, you can get a quesadilla, or white cheddar bites, or a grilled cheese - whatever you like. Their chili-cheese fries are also the BOMB!
In-N-Out is the freshest fast food I’ve ever had. It’s so good. Extra crispy animal style fries are amazing! I do love a cherry limeade from Sonic too.
Omg, those Culver’s cheese curds 🤤
Whataburger is taking the hell off Daz. First it came up through Arkansas and OK and now then earlier this year Patrick Mahomes opened the first one in Kansas City, MO and his franchise group has opened 4 in KC and several in Kansas as well. There's 4 in NW Arkansas too. They are all over the midwest now and quick.
Where's mine in Illinois??? 😭
Biscuits and gravy is a staple in some places but you can honestly get biscuits and gravy at a lot of places and it’s super easy to make for most the part. Mmmmm so delicious. Edit, also don’t know why the girl in the clip was trying to eat a whole biscuit in one bite lol just use your fork biscuits tear easy
only people who say country Gravy(Whitegravy) isn't good are people who never tried it, because It's Amazing. Love Biscuits and Gravy.
The drive thru as we know it today was innovated by Jack in The Box, founded in San Diego, California by Robert Peterson. Peterson had the idea of a two-way intercom system wherein the employee inside the restaurant and the customer in his/her car could communicate back and forth. There was a clowns head speaker system you'd drive up to (Jack the clown), where the employee would take your order, and then you'd drive up to the window to pay for and receive your food. This system kept the line (queue) moving and is still used by just about every fast food (and drink) drive through to this day.
I'm from Wisconsin the cheese curds squeaks when you eat it that's how you know there good
Whataburger is the best! Love from Houston ❤
Whataburger ketchup, mustard, etc. is sold at H-E-B stores in Texas. You could try buying it from their website.
Thx
What I miss the most are Grandma's Biscuits". That chain, open 24/7, had the best biscuits, and the best fillings for those biscuits...at 4:00 in the morning, coming through downtown Atlanta with the locations on Hill Street or in the West End meant a mandatory stop in Grandma's to get a Huge Steak & Gravy biscuit...a big( and I mean big) fluffy biscuit, a large hunk of cube steak smothered with creamy semi-solid brown gravy). I've never found any other biscuit chain, ever, that did it as well as "Grandma's Biscuits" did it...none whatsoever! Man, I miss that place!!!
Manhattan Clam Chowder is good to but it is tomato-based as opposed to the cream/milk-based New England Clam chowder.
Mike is correct. Sonic has a regular drive-thru but most people pull into the slot and order from a speaker. They bring it out to you, it's reminiscent of the drive-ups from the '50s.
So I can see the similarities that Mike was alluding to.
In Oklahoma the Sonic in my city has carhops on roller skates. When Sonic first opened they had outside speakers and 1950 ish music playing really loud.
@Bobbi McCain in my area they used to have roller skates too. They haven't for years though.
mcdonald's biscuit and gravy is actually really good
I live in a small town in Vermont, no restaurants here and the next place over has 2 McDonald's and nether one has Biscuits and Gravy.
Just went to Biscuitville, chicken fried steak (6 inches wide) on a fresh, flakey biscuit, toped with special orange sauce and jalapeno pimento cheese. It was stunning for $4.95
Homemade biscuits and gravy is really good!
Culvers cheese curds are amazing!
7:00 Dave, it's "wa" (wah) + "gyu." It literally means "Japanese" + "beef/cow."
Cheerwine goes great with pork barbecue, another popular dish in the Carolinas.
Don't worry lads. Taco Bell is absolutely TERRIBLE everywhere. There is absolutely zero resemblance to Mexican food, and honestly very little resemblance to food at all.
Where I live in North Carolina, Bojangles is HORRIBLE. The biscuits are dry and are like hockey pucks. The chicken isn't that good either. The Cook Out has really good food, if they get your order right. Unfortunately the restaurants or fast food joints NEVER makes the burgers as appealing as the commercials. You'll get your burger and think "wtf is this?"
I've never seen a McDonald's with biscuits and gravy. I've stopped at Southern McDonald's. Commercials look old. I like French fries with gravy. American here. I think I heard from Joel Wood channel that they opened one in London or somewhere around there.
Culver's is great
Until 2019 Whataburger was privately family owned. They are now owned by a private equity firm. I think they had plans to expand, then covid slowed everything down.
The BEST Burger I had in America , as a Canadian tourist , was Whalburgers in Las Vegas.
The Best Burger I had in Canada is in-between " Antler " in Toronto ( Bison , Venison, and Wild Boar ) , and M.I.C. in 2 separate places, in Sue St. Marie ( across the pond from Michigan and Illinois ) , and Sudbury ( the original ) on a tour throughout my neighboring provinces.
Dave, did you say the chicken breakfast biscuit should have mayo and lettuce? Lol
As for sauce, you put jam, syrup, or honey on a biscuit. I guess you *could* use mayo, but you'd get strange looks putting mayo on a biscuit lol
Sonic sells bags of finely crushed ice, which is popular for drinks, as well as for coolers.
What they don't tell you about Cook Out is while they are good, they come in smaller portions compared to other chains. I guess it evens out.
Daz is spot on. Krystals is a spin off of White Castle
I watched another channel cover this earlier this morning and thought "Oh the office blokes should cover this!" 🤣🤣Side note: I had the Cajun chicken from Bojangles a few years ago, and I miss it since I live way up north.
Quick note... they are called sliders because they slide right through you... We called the French fries spikes because if you didn't eat them right away they got cold and turned into... cold little spikes.
Haha the Whataburger he probably went to from the hotel Derek is around the corner from me on Westheimer!
I used to get the giant sized cherry strawberry and lime fresh fruit slush from sonic it was so good but I don’t even want to think about how much sugar was in it
Creole is basically Native American, African and French infused influence.
The special ice from Sonic isn't flavoured and has a "crushier" texture. It's the perfect ice for crunching on after finishing your drink.
I don't know about every McDonald's, but 100% sure many do make their biscuits fresh from scratch daily.
Cherry limeade is soooo good. I’m in aus and my local supermarket had cherry lime Rickey cans and they were bomb. Used to get at least a couple a week then they stopped stocking them 😭 fully devastated
Sonic ice isn't flavored. Its just good soft and easy to chew. My mom loved it. Also, a Cherry limeade is perfect when you add a little vodka! Just sayin. Lol. I live in the Texas Panhandle. We have 3 Whataburgers. My favorite burger place over any other!
Biscuits and gravy is super awesome but I would never get it from a McDonald's. That's like asking for diarrhea.
Mostly the companies themselves stop expansion. Thought being if you keep them localized there is better quality control. Makes the food that much more special. I don't have a Whataburger anywhere close to me however I know what my first stop would be in Texas.
Whataburger and InandOut are limited by scores of local burger grills EVERYWHERE which are just as good. FiveGuys, Sonic, Hardees/Carls Jr, Red Robin. Steak n' Shake, BurgerFi and other franchises also limit them in some areas. McDonalds is actually a real estate company who makes more money with property than food - yes, look it up. Whataburger would need billions in financing to go nationwide like McDonalds and Chick-Fil-A do.
Shake Shack and SmashBurger also.
Sonic is the best fast food place for drinks hands down
Krystals and White Castle sliders are almost identical, with a thin beef patty on a steamy bun with onions and a pickle slice, but Krystals also have mustard. Where I grew up there were only Krystals (it was the birthplace of Krystal -- Chattanooga, TN), but I moved north and now live where there are only White Castles. If you think of them as hamburgers, you're probably going to be very disappointed. They are their own thing and very tasty as an occasional indulgence.
Cheddar man! 🧀. I had the cheese burger quesadilla in Spearfish SD. I think it was Applebee's. Anyways, before I watched this video, I had to fry up a couple burgers for myself. Finished both of them by the end 😆
There is a Whataburger about 3 miles from my house. It's open 24 hrs a day. DANGEROUS!
Taco Bell can be strangely addictive as long as you don't think it's got anything to do with Mexican food. It doesn't. But every now and then I am overcome with a craving for a bag of Taco Bell tacos--maybe 10 of them. And I live on the I-19 highway that connects Tucson, Arizona with Nogales, Sonora, Mexico. We have lots of Mexican cars passing through here because wealthier Mexicans often come north to Tucson malls for shopping. And remarkably often, a family of them will stop at Taco Bell on the way home. Strange.
Krystal is the Taco Bell of hamburger places and it IS very similar to the White Castle of the South. But the most iconic Krystal sits on Bourbon St in New Orleans because by far the best time to eat Krystal sliders is 2:30 AM after a night of French Quarter bar hopping. Again, you need to buy and down about 10 of them. NEVER try to eat them sober.
The milkshake list at cookout is just dangerous concerning the flavors that they have, and if you order large you have enough to drink and take home and put in your refrigerator and freezer for later. Based on my experience it's very good quality food for the price and it can be a bit of a madhouse on the weekends
Arnold Sherrill: Once, when I was a kid, my sister and I were going out to Andrews AFB to watch the space shuttle land. Out on the highway, in the middle of nowhere, there was an old fashioned general store called Charlie Brown's. I'm talking pickles in actual thick glass jars and wood barrels filled with candies you shovel into a paper bag, and glass bottles of soda in super cold freezers.
In the back of the store was a 1950s style soda fountain. The menu was incredibly long with some of the flavors being stationary with others written on a board. They served malts, shakes, flavored fountain sodas, floats, and I think you could get ice cream cones, as well.
I wonder if it compares to the Cookout menu. Those types of places really need to come back. That was a great experience for me and my sister
From NC here. Cajun filet biscuit at bojangles has no sauce. You can put it on yourself, of course, and also you can request a Cajun filet biscuit with cheese as well. Excellent stuff.
Sonic ice is shaped small and very satisfying to munch on. My granddaughter loves their ice, just ice in a cup, no soda..Her boyfriend worked at the Sonic in our city & on his lunch break he would drive over to bring her a cup of ice to munch on. When she would be sick she always wanted Sonic ice..My adult daughter loves to get the ice too. It’s calorie & fat free & it only cost 50 cents for the cup. It’s cheap,satisfying & healthy.
Cajun = French derived. Creole = amalgamation of French - African - Spanish
Wow, the guy who had no food ready to sell at noon. I remember that story by Dave from two years ago. Where does the time go?
Something this video fails to mention is that some chains are nationwide or close enough to it, but depending upon location the name/aesthetic will be different. Everything else will be pretty much identical, from the menu to the floorplans, even that ambulatory wrinkle themselves, Darryl, is somehow omnipresent at any and all locations simultaneously.
If cheddar must be made in Cheddar ,then Buffalo wings can only be made in Buffalo,NY
It’s funny, as an American even though I speak the same language when they get laughing and talking I can’t understand a lot of what they say!
I've had gator had that in Florida when I live there it's very good that's one of those kind of foods that you can't cook too much otherwise it turns out like rubber
Crap list. I can name about 50 items off the top of my head only you can get here.
Yes I have diabetes but that's besides the point
😂
Culvers is the best fast food
I like the Krystals Burger more than the White Castle one, but each to their own.
whataburger is famous for their ketchup but sadly I think it has the ol high fructose corn syrup in it
You’ll live.
@@Pinkfong2 for now
Biscuits and gravy from McDonald's? Anything from McDonald's is disgusting, to be honest. Also, the staff used to wear skates at Sonics, at least when I was growing up in Missouri. Daz mentioned root beer, and it reminded me that my dad used to love A&W root beer.
Another I’m better than you because I don’t
eat at McDonalds person🙄🙄
McDonalds is trash for you but certain foods definitely taste good.....there's a reason people keep coming back to McDonalds and it's the largest franchise in the world.
"disgusting" is a bit harsh, don't you think? But, to each their own.
@B Traven Exactly.
@teara deford Since you're a mind reader, I bet you know what I'm thinking of you and your comment.
I don't know how many are those talk about canteen is I only thought they were two but there's probably more than that now I ate it the one in Fayetteville Arkansas it was pretty good of course it's a college town and it's right on the main drag right next to the school
Krystals is a Southern US burger slider restaurant chain. They are based in Georgia . They are similar to White Castle which is in the North of the US. Im in Alabama and never heard of White Castle until that movie came out Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle
we have Whataburgers here in north carolina
Don't know why in the hell I decided to watch this at work. Now I gotta leave to go get some breakfast
Cheese Curds with hot sauce are so good
Whataburger has been bought by a Chicago based company and is expanding outside of its normal footprint.
Looking at the menu makes me so jealous. I would kill just to have something like chili dogs (hot dogs with chili flavored ground beef sauce) available here in Finland. I'm so tired of kebabs, hamburgers and pizzas.
I live in one of the chili dog capitals (Cincinnati) I could have one in 5 minutes from a drive thru. They are called, "cheese coneys" here. I wish I could send ya one by air but doubt it would hit the spot by the time it got to Finland
Make your own.
I love chili dogs so much! Lol Consider yourself doing your stomach a favor by not imbibing on chili dogs. I love Mexican food but my stomach can't take anything spicy anymore.
Alligator tastes way better than you'd expect it to.
The special ice is just code for slushy. Unlike other restaurants Sonic charges for a cup of their slushy ice with no flavors added.
Wherever you go McDonalds is NOT all the same. In other countries like Japan they have different choices.
White Castle and Krystal are nearly identical and a good example of what I was saying in my other post
I just thought about that commercial you're watching Popeyes I'll as my favorite
Stewarts still here in Jersey. But please--not a coke float! Root beer floats only.
There is s Burger King on every American base in the UK and US
My sister was determined that I try a tray meal at Cookout when I went to see her in Myrtle Beach. 🤢 Maybe I just went to the wrong location or something but that food was very dry and bland. And I'm not even picky. That just tells how bad it was.
you can order Whataburger Ketchup online. HEB used to be the only store that sold it, but Walmart also does now. I dont know if it's just regional though (I live in Texas).
I just checked my local Wally World here in small town Illinois. They don't have it in store, but you can order it online like you said.
@@FourFish47 I only order from HEB because they always have it. Every time I go to a grocery store around here, it's out of stock. When I lived in NY, I would get the Spicy Ketchup and Honey Butter shipped to me. I was not living outside of Texas without it.
Only place we have out of that list is Sonic. Never had the drinks and now I must try. My mouth was watering. Have to take a trip to get any of those foods.
I always chose whataburger over in n out
He just said Taco Bell is dirt? Well duh 😂😂 ur supposed to eat it at 3am when ur “pissed” and need to try and prevent a hangover lol.. make sure u get supreme and grab sauce packets..
Btw got a milkshake from cookout in Raleigh NC and it tasted like vomit...no idea why
I feel like a hick saying it but gator tail is amazing 🔥
Yeah that Crystal’s looks just like White Castle
Biscuits and gravy does not exist in the northeast McDonald's. None of the places in the video exist anywhere near me.
