The Most Disappointing Fast Food Breakfast Item Yet
Vložit

- Wendy's has recently released their new Homestyle French Toast Sticks! Described as offering a "perfect balance of a soft, custardy interior and crisp, golden-brown crust with notes of vanilla" this item sounds promising! Sadly in reality, it was a total disappointment.

I think I'll make my own French toast sticks, then eat that garbage
Good morning (still 11am)
What a baddie
I love how the item looks so limp and flaccid in the thumbnail
Just to show your disappointment 🤣
“If you like bland fried bread, then you are going to be in hog heaven.” Great line.
Definitely
I literally LOLed! He's the best!
Damn. Tell us how you really feel. XD
Burger King French Toast Sticks are much better. Review Brah has the best lines
He takes his reviews very seriously, no joke!
When he said “it hurts a bit because I like French toast” was the moment I knew he is the best food reviewer

I read this right when he said it
Yet he thinks BK doesn't sell french toast sticks anymore..

I like how he does not talk while chewing. Unlike the other food reviewers, this man is a true gentleman.
That's what I really like about him.
Underappreciated.
Yeah, he’s not gross.
common sense. Unfortunately not for everyone
And his formal attire
Good video, but what a shame. As a French toast enjoyer, I would have been happy to try this, but now I'm not so sure.

The new yorker has spoken.
I, too, am an enjoyer of French Toast.
Nice comment, Joel.
you were in my dreams once vine, you met my mom and then married her and became my step dad.
Many many many years ago, (1983), I worked the breakfast shift at McDonald’s and we were always SLAMMED! The food was real. The eggs and meats were real. Even the butter was real! Everything was delicious. Breakfast was a huge part of the day! The food products today are so chocked full of preservatives which destroys any semblance of real food.
Me, too. Worked several years at a McDonald's in Palos Verdes (which, sadly, isn't there anymore), 1980 to 1984. Breakfast was real, like you said. High quality. I remember, too, the McRib was better because it braised in the sauce for hours and was tender and suffused in sauce.
agreed! back in the late 80's while still in highschool I worked (at McDonalds) weekends during school, and full-time in the summer. everything is true that you said, and even the biscuits were made fresh, daily. I still even remember the nice, old lady that would make them. she was so sweet.
Amen to that sister! Most foods are so heavily processed and filled with preservatives nowadays it's more chemicals than actual food. Go into a grocery store,pick a dozen items @ random and read the ingredients;
I'll bet you find one common thing in the majority of them:they all contain
high fructose corn syrup or corn syrup solids;why? Because it's cheaper to use them as filler for most food products,to cut their manufacturing costs and turn a profit.
Thank you for your service and wisdom 🤟
@@zacharymcmillan2788 And the corn syrup is making everyone fat, when it's in everything.
It's really sad that they're charging THAT much for what

That yank and pull is never a good sign 😂
Let's be real, just looks like Wendy's took a piece of bread and fried it golden brown then tossed it in a box to call it french toast sticks. 😅
yeah no cinnamon sugar, soft inside or anything
That's exactly what they taste like too
They basically cut the crusts and fried them.
or maybe burnt umber brown, depending on how high the emoloyee on the fryer is
Idk what you call French toast,but I don't call it some greasy fried bread;
my 71 year old father has Parkinson's disease,and he can make better French toast than this mess.
Those french toast sticks look EXACTLY like the ones my high school cafeteria used to serve for breakfast. And the way you described them, overcooked, chewy, lacking in flavor, that's exactly how my high school's tasted. I can perfectly imagine how horrible these taste.
This just unlocked a deep memory and now I know exactly how these taste without having to try them
@@FeralKobold Same 😂
I forgot about these woooow
Damn this reminded me of the ones I had at my elementary school except everyone agreed they were simply too good to have been wasted on elementary school kids. I wish I knew where I could get them today.
I’ve had these at like 5 different places & they’ve all tasted & looked EXACTLY the same & all were bad.
“That vanilla is absolutely nowhere to be seen.” This did it for me.
Exactly! Like they couldn't even spring for the cheapo fake stuff!?

I started laughing when you took your first bite. It looked like you were trying bread jerky. Thanks for the video.
Bread Jerky.....

Whenever Review Bra takes a sip of water after he tries something, you know he’s about to end its entire career 😂
I think the major reason for neglect in breakfast menus across fast food chains is that most people just don’t eat breakfast out of routine habits born from whatever reasons align with them.
I think lots of people eat breakfast, I think the quality went down and now no one trusts fast breakfast.
@@eerielconstantine5051 yeah, breakfast is usually lower quality than the lunch time food. If a bunch of kids are going to be messy and not care, then of course those problems will be compounded at 6 am lol.
And the fact they cut the item off the menu by 10 o clock
$3 for 2 slices of bread 😂😂
These companies are just selling anything that comes to mind at this point.
These are something you DEFINITELY have to eat "fresh." As in; you need to eat them in the drive-thru, parking lot, or the second you receive them right outta the bag! Thanks for the review Sir! Always classy!!
Anyone else notice the "nom" or "mom" under Wendy's face? Lol
You're not wrong? But if that's how it is, they shouldn't be selling it lol
@@notbydesign3316 100% agreed!
That's not going to work out too well when the food's been sitting under a heat lamp for 3 hours

@thereportoftheweek00 on telegram hhm?
It’s been months since ReviewBrah dropped this hit-piece and Wendy’s still has the audacity to sell French toast sticks
I'm going to try them for myself just to confirm. Lol
@@epiccsxhow was it?
@@Joshua-mh4qy They have a nice flavor to them! I tried them 10 months ago, and filmed a small review of them, but have not uploaded it yet. The quality probably depends on the restaurant location. I may upload that video this weekend (as I have not uploaded since spring..), or try them again and re-record. More recently (on a road trip in July) I got Burger King French toast sticks for the first time in over 4 years, and they forgot my syrup..lol
"i guess if i'm looking for good things to say about these french toast sticks, well, they're edible" the sad thing is that, after the kfc beyond chicken nuggets, i feel like that's _a genuine compliment_

His ability to narrate examination, evaluation, humor, critique and dissection off the cuff with class and wit without an edit is truly impressive.
I love his manners when he's eating. He knows how to be a civilized gentleman. He's a class act food reviewer.
Boy, this whole year the food has been, abysmal to say the least... And it's scary cuz the trend shows that we're going to have absolutely bad quality food at a very high price and it's just going to keep getting worse. It not just the fast food, it's happening almost in every section of our lives: groceries, cleaning materials, etc the quality goes bad while the price goes up. It's just scary tbh..
I haven’t had most the items he’s reviewed recently, but I really liked the Wagyu burger from Arby’s. It’s kinda pricey but the patty actually had flavor which was surprising from a fast food burger.
Food is the new gas right now, now we overcame the gas prices pretty much (still kinda high but way better than 5.50) but food is insane.
Agreed.
@Daniel Therman the inflation in the 80s lasted just under 3 years i believe, then it corrected to the normal 2% ish, no guarantee itll be the exact same but even the worst times in US history there was a recovery, then a period of thriving.

I think the thing working against all breakfast menus at fast food restaurants is the narrow window they make them available in the day. More places should follow Jack in the Box’s lead and just make them available all day.
Yeah absolutely

True

@@Terszel if you cant wake up before noon then you don't deserve Mcdonalds breakfast, chief
For me, I usually eat something clean and/or simple for breakfast. Almost always fruit, oatmeal, maybe toast, or once on a rare occasion eggs. The issue I have with fast food breakfast is that it shares the greasiness and heaviness that I'd only be comfortable consuming during brunch at the earliest. I feel as though most people prefer a light breakfast, since heavy or greasy foods tend to make you feel lethargic, which is not what you want at the beginning of the day.
Eggs, bacon, black pudding, sausage, grilled tomato, mushrooms, slice of bread and cup of rosey. Can't be beat:-)
I usually just have eggs and toast with banana and peanutbutter on bulk.
For me I feel it's not their job. If I go to a burger joint I want a burger not a goddamn waffle taco
As a lover of French toast sticks, those look immeasurably disappointing.
Every single pre-frozen french stick brand you can get at a grocery store looks better than these.
It’s actually impressive how unappetizing these look
i love carl juniors version.
i agree, but these french toast sticks look more day-ruining than immeasurably disappointing
Dang i guess your disappointment is immeasurable and your day is ruined
Is your day ruined, as well?
You know, I always wonder how a majority of CZcams food reviewers end up getting quality products when they go to review new items, but when I get them they do a horrible job preparing them. It's refreshing and disappointing to see ReviewBrah get the same lack of consistency and quality as me, in real world scenarios.
That and there are a lot of food reviewers who get an item that looks like garbage and they think it's the best thing on earth just because it's edible (I'm looking at you Joeysworldtour)
So true.
Great assessment
Each store is different and depends on location. One store have a bunch of kids smoking weed out back while another store takes pride in what they do. Really varies...
@@cameronpeterson6734 that's a dislike. Joey cant help to enjoy the meals his high class palate allows him to enjoy much more than the average palate. It's a classic double edged sword that he must deal with. You completely discredit him with this comment.
These were my exact thoughts when I first tried these “French Toast” sticks. You’re better off just eating toast, I’ve never felt so cheated out of my money before. Wendy’s should be absolutely ashamed of themselves for allowing this utter fail. This is worse than McDonald’s Arch Deluxe, and Carl’s Jr./Hardee’s Boss burger, at least those items had flavor.
I think the reason people don't talk about fast food breakfast food menus is because in general, no one really likes them all that much. They sell well enough because there are always going to be people who are late for work and need a quick meal on the drive to work. But compared to something like a burger which has such a long history in fast food, they've had so many years to perfect the formula. I don't think anyone's managed to crack the code on making "tasty enough for what it is" fast food breakfast items the way they have for lunch or dinner foods.
McDonald's has the best breakfast
Whataburger has amazing breakfast
the pricing for some average french toast sticks that you could buy a whole 24 pack of at grocery stores for $4 is outrageous and will be the sole purpose id assume of this items downfall
I guarantee the boxed ones taste a lot better than the Wendy's ones that looked like they've spent 3 hours in a tanning bed lol
@@cameronpeterson6734 you can get like 200+ at Costco for like 16-18$ that are amazing. or you know, crack a egg on some bread and fry it, not too complicated.
@@cameronpeterson6734 only 3 hours?
Well Wendy’s is a business not a charity. They need to make a profit & they are a brand you’re paying for. So you pay for the branding of it or stick with your grocery bought stuff and make it yourself.
I love your reviews. I love that you are just the right amount of strange. The old soul vibe, the words you use, the objects around you, as you review 2022 fast food from a house from the past
it’s almost apocalyptic somehow
Just the right amount of weird is absolutely right. It makes makes the videos so addicting.

Yes spot on!!! 😁🙌
I like to think some dramatic event happened in his life and he just snapped and now he is this way.. life is traumatic
Idk if he’s just the right amount of strange. I think he’s so over the top strange that it becomes difficult to look away
Never thought of syrup as "sauce"......thanks reviewbrah! Will now go to IHOP and order the pancake "sauce"...
Wendy's never fails to disappoint and lie in their commercials
Yeah lol. These will be a real tell-all for Wendy's considering how much they're hyping these up
Man no wonder their Twitter is so tryhard
Yeah, Wendy's literally took an item Burger King has been selling for decades off their menu, and trying to somehow be original with it. Copying your competitors ain't the way to go.
sonic been had em too and way better
Carl's Jr/Hardee's has had them too and they're good. It's ok to have similar items as competitors as not one place should only be allowed to serve them.
Carl’s Jr. has the best ones imo
I ❤️ the BK French toast sticks. Not flat like these Wendys version. They also have a nutmeg flavor that elevates the taste. YUMMY.
These larger restaurant establishments also collude with each other. The big wigs of individual companies have a huge meeting every year. I wouldn't be surprised if this was planned.
I think for many 9-5 workers, a fast food breakfast is seen less as a treat or a break, and more as something to scarf down before they are late for work. And then on weekends, why would you head out early for a fast food breakfast, and later on in the day if breakfast is still served, people just don't feel like a breakfast item over a regular menu item.
every establishment needs to serve hashbrowns all day, this should be a law lmao
I prefer breakfast over a normal item. 😬 imo its the best meal of the day
I'll add that I dont eat breakfast before work so maybe I dont have that connection that you were explaining. I enjoy breakfast and take my time eating it (:
I agree with all this except the last part. I actually do want breakfast items later in the day, especially late night like after 9pm. When McDonald’s did all day breakfast I thought it was genius.
@@sttrsp9700 Hell no
@@queensheafox3902 yup
It’s terrible to pay that much for stale piece of bread how pathetic
There are two reasons fast food companies focus on lunch and dinner vs breakfast. 1.) advertising for a burger, taco, chicken sandwich has a 66% chance of selling vs the breakfast 33%. Meaning one item can be served 2 times a day vs once. 2.) (this continues off of number 1), for most people breakfast time is pre work, pre 9-5… so during the week there is maybe an hour or two rush vs the lunch and dinner rush, which dinner for people can be anytime from 4 (early birds) till 10 (when people get off work, especially retail). Now here is the heart of fast food: people get off work and they do not want to cook, what’s available quickly, fast food. You may wake up and want to treat yourself to Wendy’s, Taco Bell, or something else, but a person is more likely to feel tired and lazy after work and just pick something up. You don’t have that same feeling on the way to work. It’s rarer.
As a long time Wendy's employee I can say with confidence that the French toast sucks lol
@@scrimbim6056 their other breakfast items are good. Other than that, those French toast sticks look horrid 😂
Long time Wendy’s employee? I wouldn’t admit that.
@@superniger4822 oh I get it! youd rather have him living off your tax money. you know, unemployment. I respect him for working.
@@superniger4822 better than being jobless, rather work at a fast food place than retail
Yes I am a long time employee for the Wendy's company. And I am proud to work there. I was letting people know not to waste your money on the french toast. Other then that I love our breakfast. Yes pricey at times but I also live a high tax state lol
Thank you ReviewBrah for eating this awful item so that I don't have to. 👍
Same
The breakfast menu only matters if the business model embraces breakfast as a major profit-generating venture.
When I worked for Hardee's, >80% of the daily revenue was generated from breakfast...mainly handmade biscuits and coffee. They literally would have made more daily profit by extending breakfast hours by two hours and then closing the store for the rest of the day!
When I was a general manager for Taco Bell, I lamented over how corporate refused to open early for breakfast to sell breakfast burritos. In reality, ~90% of our daily profit was made between 7:30PM and 11PM when all the potheads came in, eyes all red like they'd been fighting a forrest fire (what we called "blazed"), and starving like teenage boys with a hunger of four grown men. They'd literally plop down hundred dollar bills and say "give me this much in food."
Now days, I don't eat more than two meals per day...if even that much. Usually, supper is my only meal of the day. When I do have breakfast, I typically go to a sit-down restaurant. Only when I am traveling, or when I am expending a great amount of energy outdoors, and time is severely limited, will I even consider fast food. In those rare circumstances, it is almost always a breakfast burrito meal from Whataburger.
I've learned that the business model matters more than the hype. Restaurants need the hype to appear relevant in the minds of a fickle consumer market. However, beyond this little, but highly essential "song and dance," the business needs to bolster the "cash cow" elements of its sales. Hardee's, as horrible as it is, will always make its money from coffee and biscuits. Taco Bell will always be a late nigh haven for indiscriminate potheads with the munchies. The corporate executives know this, and that is why all of the "limited time only" menu items are generally crap.
Great review!!!
I tried these a few days ago and this is the first time I felt like I was disrespected by a fast food restaurant. I wasted my money and was not so sure what I was eating (French toast sticks or just plain bread fried). Everything you have said is dead on. I’m very disappointed with Wendy’s on this menu item. I’ll continue to eat at Burger King for my French toasts sticks.
“This just ain’t it” 😂 I swear he makes my day with some of the things he says
When I seen that first bite I knew it was bad lol nothing bread should take that much force 😂😂
Same thing I was thinking
saw not seen
Facts forreal
My all time favorite fast food breakfast item, long discontinued, was the McDonald's Western Omelet, made with their familiar muffin sandwiching a darn good omelet.
For your question as to why people don't really eat breakfast at fast food places; I'm from a small European town and we only have McDonald's. Their breakfast stops at 11 and I don't know anybody that would wake up for it. I guess their target demographic is just business people who need a quick bite after pulling a night shift or early birds on the way to work so that's why they're not pulling as many customers.
Love your videos and love that you have subtitles on because they help alot :)
Breakfast at fast food generally ends at around 10 or 10:30, so it’s greatly limiting it’s availability to anyone who works second shift/overnight or even people running errands, which most likely start at the very end of that range (at the earliest, given when retail/grocery stores are open). That also means it’s available for only 4 or 5 hours, whereas their lunch/dinner items are available for at least twice that if not a lot more. So the relative buzz seems proportional to me, in addition to lots of other factors mentioned in the video and comments.
You have to also think that drunk and/or stoned people go at night. More money is to be made off non-breakfast because of the drunks and stoners.
For me fast food breakfast is limited to chick-fil-a and Bojangles (southeast US chain of restaurants) anything else else is honestly not worth it
Agreed. If I want to get a sausage biscuit at McDonald's, I have to plan to be up and out the door by a certain time...for McDonald's
The majority of fast food breakfast items are almost universally inconsistent in the quality of their offers. New items are only decent on the first few days of the rollout, and falls off of a cliff in a few weeks.
The Burger King Croissant is a prime example of this. The croissant was originally light, buttery, and quite flakey, but in a month, they were consistently heavy or on the edge of staleness. Or the McGriddle, sometimes it's swimming in syrup and the bacon or sausage is undercooked every other visit.
You're better off going to a local diner. Better food quality and you're helping your community.
Man I used to love bk crossiants or the McGriddle
You're helping your community equally by going to a fast food place too. Franchises are still local businesses.
@@ReverendMeat51 I get your point, but most franchises are a single owner with multiple restaurants. For example, I live in Charlotte NC and Wild Wings Cafe is a franchise here. The one near my home is owned by Musein Mohammed, a former NFL wide receiver, and he owns 6 on them in NC. I have a difficult time considering him to be a small business owner, though technically he is.
@@TEEANVEE Thanks for the comment! Man, I was in absolute love with the McGriddle when it launched! I would buy the bacon/cheese version almost everyday. Then one day, I bought 2 and the wrap paper was soaked with that syrup and the bacon was limp and obviously undercooked. As a customer, you ignore it as a one off, but after about a month of serving them, the McDonald's just gave up on consistent quality and shat them out! To this day, they are a gooey, half cooked mess.
@@youtubemusicowesmemoney8470 I stopped eating breakfast meats because I heard they cause cancer but I feel your reasons for quitting McDonald’s breakfast too
I just had these, just to see for myself. You see I am a huge fan of french toast sticks and I found exactly what you described, despite the fact that they were made fresh. They tasted no different than soft buttered toast.
@ 5:23 is the moment that the french toast stick knew it was doomed.
I admire your charming personality. I love that you can be completely honest and be polite as well. A really gracious way to criticize a food items. Helps a lot for me to decide to either go for them or not, since some times I see myself wondering about it. Thanks for your amazing content!! Hugs 💕
I personally really hate fast food breakfast, the eggs are always terrible, the bacon is never as good as home made, I dislike processed sausage. Perhaps I'm spoiled by freshly prepared eggs and bacon but I just can't enjoy breakfast items.
Mine were also burnt and tasted exactly as you described. Bland bread. Was so disappointed cause their other breakfast items slap!
For myself, French toast must be eggy/custardy, made with nutmeg, buttered and lots of syrup. Yum! 😋 Those look thin, dry and flavorless. Great review Brah!
Except this is french toast stick, not regular french toast. Who tf wants soggy french toast sticks? French toast sticks are deep fried. They're supposed to be crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside.
@@Supre3m3Kai they won't stay that way in a bag, brought home, for a review show. I eat a lot of BK French toast sticks.

Well... You Americans don't make French toast. You think you do but you don't.
@@jaydub2546 do you really have to gatekeep french toast🤣
I used to work at a Corporate owned Wendys. I can state, matter of fact; Wendy's corporate has ZERO idea what they're doing. Legit, BEGINNING of Covid, for a THIRD TIME. They are releasing their breakfast.
And it honestly is the most disappointing thing. No joke.
They should be focusing on their strengths, baked potatoes, salads, and otherwise Dinner and Lunch products.
Instead, "Huur, let's do brek fas!"
it's stupid, and frankly the one I quit's quality went SO downhill, that they built a Wendys in the middle of town instead of renovating the old one. Absolute brainlet move.
You should see the only kfc in town by me, the foods mid at best and the palce is literally falling apart, they only just got the second drive through window up, the seats inside are torn, the automatic door is no longer automatic and i swear its missing like 4 tables cause the lay out is odly spacy for no reason.
If it weren't for their breakfast, I probably would never go to Wendy's.
But maybe you're right, they should focus on their core strength of...salads.
@@ryanjohnson8131 Bruh, i argued we should have Steak sandwiches, and when a group of people agreed, I feel like I know what I'm talking about.

My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined
As someone from Ohio, Wendy’s has fallen off. I think it’s because they went franchise. Used to be so good but now their burgers feel like cold meat sandwiches or steam table burgers. Just waiting to be served, cold cheese on a lukewarm patty. I don’t care about Wendy’s anymore.
Ur speaking facts. They fell off
Damn bro spot on.
Sad, but true.
why mention that you're from Ohio?
in cleveland the 2 wendy’s locations near me smell like lake erie. never hitting up their drive thru
When I lived in Clarksville Tennessee ( ft Campbell air assault ) Arby's had breakfast. They had the best breakfast burrito in the world.

Even at home I find French Toast is just one of those foods you have to eat as soon as possible after it comes out of the pan, ideally immediately, I think this is why it never seems to do well as take out food.
Would love to hear reviews on classic items too. For example, Wendy’s Baconator, Chili , mc Donalds Big mac , etc.
Regarding your breakfast to lunch/dinner popularity comment: I mostly avoided breakfast lines for years when I worked indoors and had to be on time and consistent, it wasn't until I worked in my own company truck where I had more time to try different things. I see a lot of other company trucks in line, so maybe they represent a good chunk of that breakfast sales and there aren't as many of them compared to average consumers. But any time I try to eat around lunch or after work it always 10x more busy at the places its crazy.
Also those french toast sticks look gross and I usually like Wendy's breakfast above the others (Hot honey/ honey butter chicken). You are braver than I am.

The ones where hes disappointed are always best. Wouldn't expect anything less from wendys
As much as it's a bummer that see our hero having to experience something less than spectacular, the disappointing products do yield quite entertaining reactions.
Wendy's is one of the better fast food places you philistine
do you mean you wouldnt expect anything MORE? i may be trippin, but i dont think it makes much sense to say “I wouldnt expect anything less”. wouldnt that mean that you think wendys is usually good? unless that’s actually what you meant.
Do you mean you wouldn't expect anything more?
Wendy's is barely a step above McDonald's. I view people that enjoy either as the same kind of people who put pineapple on pizza. Weird people who don't like normal society.
People just eat breakfast in the morning when they are home, period. At lunch or even dinner they're usualy NOT home.
love your videos. brilliant reviews. thank you.
A good morning Reviewbrah! Great way to start my day, even if you didn't enjoy the item!!
Good morning!
@@TheReportOfTheWeek Hope your day is going well!
The moment you had to forcibly tear that thing out of the first bite, I knew, that’s a bad bake.
"we're in uncharted territory.... Not really" got me 😂
I also think it's absolutely hilarious that Wendy's is selling bland half slices of toast with syrup, like, we could whip this together in our own kitchens in like 10mins, and it would sure as hell be a better breakfast item than this abomination
And lastly, to answer the "why do people brush off fast food breakfast" question, in my family for example, breakfast is 'the most important meal of the day' so we'll usually eat some actual food, maybe some raw veggies added on the side. We try to eat something healthy for breakfast so we have enough energy for the day. :)
Reviewbrah, you hit the nail on the head with this video. Most of the Wendy’s breakfast menu slaps but their French toast sticks are complete turds.
At least then there would be some flavor.😁
Spot on review. Had it this morning. Tasted like white bread that was overcooked and then dunked in fake maple syrup.
as a chick-fil-a employee, i’m confident in saying that our breakfast is a big part of our business. of course, i’m biased because i work the morning shift, but our breakfast is fairly popular.
chick-fil-a is my go to. I feel like they're on the same level as mc donalds which is a pretty high bar IMO.
I'm not a big chick fila fan but yours guys breakfast is more than fairly popular lol
@@dwhutto
What is your low bar if McDonald's is your high bar? LOL!
It's good to hear that the staff of a restuarant are genuinely proud of their food products. You know you're getting good quality breakfast.
Those chicken burritos are fire.
“Well, they’re edible.”😂🤣
I believe the lack of "interest/talk" about fast food breakfast items, is mainly due to the fact that the majority of people may only get them if they miss breakfast at home, or if they don't have enough time in the morning to make their own breakfast. So once they plow through the line and grab something and down it in the car on the way to work, they hardly give it a second thought. Add to that, that the location they choose, usually hinges on whatever resturaunt is closest to their work commute, whereas lunch/dinner gets a lot more thought and planning going into the decision. But that is just one possible reason.
For my experience fast food restaurants are so inconsistent and varied throughout locations that any review isn't really a review on the item in total it's a review on how well that particular store prepared that particular item at that particular time
Completely agree
The reason people overlook breakfast fast food is that people can’t depend on how long the wait time is for the food. You may be running 15 min early and end up 20 minutes late to work. The time you may be stuck in line for varies from day to day so why risk being late.
At that point just take 5 min to fry a few eggs and toast some bread or make a breakfast wrap the night before
The last time I went to Wendy’s and swear the burger I got was in the hot window from a rush that didn’t sell and they sold it instead of making fresh. The bun was dry and hard. I wouldn’t be surprised if that order was sitting the hot window for an hour+.
You can see his disgust by the way he wipes his fingers after handling the stick he didn't eat for a few seconds.
Hearing Reviewbrah describing French Toast Stix as being "egregiously bad" is the content I log in for.
* egregious! *Sticks.
I know you won't appreciate the correction of your awful spelling but I'm here to help and I love you. X
@@benlachenal771 You smell But I did correct "egregiously". I'm leaving Stix for my own personal flair.
wow, your life must suck
Deep-fried plain bread sticks with no vanilla, no powdered sugar, no nothing, and burnt to a crisp as the cherry on top. Cue up Gordon Ramsay:
"are we really charging people money for this?!!!!".
except gordon ramsey would have a few extra words added in.
@@poil8351 and he would probably burn the french toast himself and then go "mmm delicious"
I think a good part of the reason why maybe Breakfast doesn't get as much attention as it used to is because a lot of people gotta be to work either before, during, or after the times that breakfast is available. Not to mention it usually only is available for such a short few hours in the morning. I love breakfast from places like McDonald's, Wendy's, Burger King, etc.. but I never get time or the chance to get breakfast due to having to be to work so early.. and it sucks because like a lot of other people you just end up going without breakfast to work. Getting Breakfast from one of those places for myself is a treat because it's such an extremely rare occasion that I get the chance to.
I agree. At this point I associate a McDonald’s egg McMuffin with being on vacation, because it’s always what I get on a road trip drive.
Why not allow time to eat at home before work? Much cheaper and healthier. It really doesn't take that long to cook something or eat some cereal.
Love your content. So chill.
If I wanted “Home Style” anything, I’d stay home!
Having worked a number of years at wendy's, I'm not sure how they do these, but they look very much like they've been kept in a heat drawer too long.
him referring to syrup as dipping sauce is wild
I used to live in a big old drafty house which was haunted by the ghost of a strange boy who passed in the 1920s. Sometimes I would wonder what that boy might have thought about modern fast food breakfast menu items, but, thanks to your channel, no more!!
Thanks for the review! This looks like something that would be great on a $.99 menu… That’s about it
It amazes me to this day how relaxing and interesting I find watching this guy talking about fast food.
I agree. Somehow he totally pulls this off.
Problem with French toast is all I want in it is Taste of egg and either deep fried or pan fired egg. It's not hard. Two things you need to make it. Yet if they forget the egg then it's just cooked bread. that could cost less then a dollar for a pack... Honestly if I was their food design team I'd try to figure out pan frying a hollowed out bun, top and bottom with an single egg split for both. Then When cooked, either freeze or fridge it then deep fry it before order. Then sell that.
How ever that takes more creativity then LTOs from tacobell... Which it really isn't...
the reason people dont care about breakfeast is because not everyone eats breakfeast but everyone eats at least lunch or dinner
Fun fact: these videos makes our days better
I just passed by my local Wendy's and saw the sign. I instantly thought of waiting for your review.... And here it is. You are a wizard!
Man, you've gottena a lot funnier. These frank explanations of how bad things are are killing me
You’re the best my dude. Whole fam over here loves your posts. Stay up man!
