US vs Italy Burger King | Food Wars | Insider Food
Can food wars do an inflation episode? You guys have all the prices from around 2020 from these fast food restaurants and I think it would be interesting to see the footage of the whopper meal pricing from earlier vs today.
In case you were wondering:
In italy there's no pizzahut, no dominoes (fun fact is that it tried the italian market and went bankrupt), no in-n-out, no Wendy's and no most of the American fastfood chains. But we have jollibee here in Milan, and i still don't understand WHY.
As Claudia was saying, the price point for fast food in italy is not THAT low. You can get a plate of pasta for about the same price in some restaurants, so we see it as something to enjoy maybe once every two months. I dont know any italian that goes to a fast food more than once a month, and i personally haven't eaten in a fastfood chain in about a year and a half.
We love fastfood, don't get me wrong, but italian still prefer eating a homemade meal or in a restaurant, and during a lunch break is common to have some focaccia/pizza, certainly not fastfood.
Oh, and we pay for sauces. I still don't understand why five guys sauces are free.
In N Out and Shake Shack would be welcome in Italy
@@lorenzopippia5257 YES. I never had one but I crave animal fries. They look amazing.
You should be grateful for free sauces 😂
DUDE IS'T OBYUSALLY tha it's not a pizza hut or dominoes because in italy is littery the home of pizza
She’s definitely liking Burger King more than KFC 😂
I like the Burger King over McDonald's anyday. The only items I prefer at McDonald's are the Mckroket (Dutch exclusive), chocolatemilkshake and sundae caramel with nuts.
filet-o-fish at McDrek pretty dope too. though the king fish I had at BK Luxembourg recently was even better, sadly not available in the Netherlands, nor is raspberry coke :( @@jolanda.c
I just realised that if the prices you showed for the US are without taxes then the Italian menu is actually cheaper, cause all prices in Italy, and Europe in general, always include taxes
@@deadzio ohh, that too, I forgot :)
no tip on fast food@@deadzio
I don't think there's tip in fast food
@@federicocatelli8785 oh there is... there is... And it is coming to us in Czechia too
@@federicocatelli8785Optional tip
Claudia is too wonderful to be subjected to the horror that is Burger King 😂
Burger King in Italy is actually quite good. The taste is different from american BK. Don't forget that, other than the exclusives, meat patties and buns are also made locally, which is a big factor. Sauces are also probably made in Europe, because of stricter rules about stuff like OGM and additives.
The number on the bottom of the cup should be some kind of code, rather than size. Ive worked for gas stations a long time and usually there's a smaller number somewhere that has the "oz" next to it to denote size. The companies that make those cups have such a large selection for many restaurants/stores, so they have a number code to mark what style cup is in the box.
love to see her smiling nd speaking 😊😇
She is a charming and beautiful woman.This series is not really her forte.
man i love this series so much and why dose the big king at a burger king in italy makes me think of a mcdonald's big mac?!
cause it's their version of the big mac. Carl's jr version is called the Big Carl
germany has that one aswell. it is a 1 to 1 copy of the big mac
Because that's exactly what it's trying to imitate.
I think you guys need to give Joe some rest. The American fast food exclusives are bit repetitive now. It's always same food😂
Although this was the first time he got excited for someone not liking pickles besides him
Joe mama
I think so Joe was almost in every video except UK vs India Nando’s and Cadbury. I would not think this but I think it should be Italy vs Japan or Italy vs India.
It's because most of there audience is from America
Unfortunately people love to compare America's food to other countries to feed their idea that Americans are fat, Europeans ain't.
I’ve had both and Italian BK tastes like completely different food in a good way
Just what I needed thanks
chili cheese bites are BY FAR the best item in italian BK's menu. these and the big king xxl, a solid, ultra-classic damn good burger
By the way, you can cut a fish into square meat😂
do you guys order from just one BK/KFC etc. or do you order small bits from multiple stores? Might be able to get your full order if you just split it up to different places because as someone who works in a ktichen, seeing this massive order would be nuts lol.
would you rather wait awhile at one store for your food and possibly not get something or would you like to drive all over to multiple stores waste gas and probably a lot more time for the same possibility of still not getting your whole order? I have ordered literally 3 things and they still forgot one thing and thats happened more than once at different BK's
they go to multiple to get all the products they're looking for
@@kendramasse yeah it would make sense that they would be considerate of that; comment above doesn't understand lol
Awesome job joe for Italy.
as soon as i get the notification saying a new food wars episode is out, it completely brightens my day!
Claudia looks a little horrified at some of those burgers😅😅😅😅
11:08 had me dying "somewhat inferior version" 😂😂😂
Thumbs up from those that watched Small Soldiers in the cinema back in the day 🙂
Great film.
Outstanding review. Can you please review In-N-Out Burger if possible. 🙏
Claudia, I am SOOO disappointed to hear that you don't like pickles... I'll forgive you and still love your videos. 😂
This is typical for Italians. They're not into pickles. I have bought almost every jar of pickles I can find in my local stores and they all suck horribly. So, I make my own. I mean, I made my own in the US as well, but I HAVE to make my own in Italy.
What I can say that might give a ray of hope is that I had some friends over for dinner a few weeks ago. And they know about my desire for good pickles and they wanted to try mine. And they liked them! They said that they were way better than they thought they would be.
She anything can't do right since because pickles.
She is not an objective reviewer, very narrow in her preferences...wondering who thought it is a good idea to let her do this.
@@sreenivasgannavaram8609 I was pretty sure we all thought it was a great idea and still think it is, but apparently not
@praesentius as an italian i love pickles on burger... is just you
Please do south Africa!
It's hilarious that on an episode with Italy, they screw up the fact french toast was an Italian creation.
"why drinks lose their volume in a cup" I'm pretty sure its the ice. Ice has a higher volume than water so as the ice melts the volume will lower. so it was "38 Fo" but it goes down slowly as the ice melts.
Mantap burgernya pasti terasa banget
I miss the Big King XXL when it was here in the UK... it was like a Big Mac but actually big and tasted amazing compared to the thing it was copying... wish it would come back...

Italian BK actually looks tasty 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
As an American who lives in Tuscany, I can assure you, it's usually a disappointment.
As an Italian born and raised, nah I actually like it @@praesentius
@@praesentius Agree with Giacomo. As an italian, I love it.
good video
Loving food wars
1:55 why the whopper from USA looks like someone sit on it while whopper from Italy look's Fantastic 😂
More US versus Italy. More Claudia!!
Also, I remember trying the BK-equivalent of a McRib in Italy, but I completely forgot what the name was, but it’s probably not available anymore.
that's wild that there's so many exclusive Burgers at BK Italy, you're holding out on us BK!
2:56 dude even added the crown for insult, lol. Also Italy BK gets wild with the cheeses !
"Thank you for taking us such a beautiful place. I enjoy watching this nice walk!"
Austria
Across various accounts of croissant history, most sources agree that it originates from Austria as the kipferl. Made from a yeasted wheat dough, the kipferl is a baked bread roll common in Central Europe.
Still not very clear, dude !
Heard it might be from 🇹🇷
I really liked your Video when you tried Indian McDonalds and American McDonalds😃🤩😋
I just wanna to see an USA vs. Brazil sometime. Idk but seeing the USA menu's it feels so different than what we have here
Do Portugal next
those Italy king burgers sound delicious...their big king is better than ours, cause it actually looks like a big mac lol...we need the bacon king 3.0..and I like that Bronx steakhouse.
Joe. From one American to another. The BBQ sauce here from German McDonalds is straight up the same. If you wanna buy a good BBQ sauce get the one from HP, very good!
Claudia ❤
I love croissants being used as sandwich bread. Can't always be loaf bread or rolls. Texture and taste are so different.
Italians really are nutella addicted 😂😂😂
Could do OG South African Nandos vs UK and Australia
I worked at BK here in Texas from 2005-2007, and we only had the veggie burger in terms of vegetarian option. It was not cooked in the flame broiler! Largely because it would've burnt that way. It was heated in the microwave though, which... doesn't sound appetizing either way.
These are Impossible Whoppers not the veggie patty that was offered in the early 2000's.
There have even been court cases re: them not being vegetarian because they are cooked on the same surface as the beef patties.
I don’t think there are a lot of calories in this kind of food. It feels bad for the body. Would you still choose this kind of food?
good episode never had burger king in italy im one these people who eats what italians eat or spanish when in spain , so instead coke and burgers its wine and pasta parma ham burger soun ds delish but then i can just buy some parma ham and stick it on a burger
"Imagine I was driving" Sir. 😂😂😂😂
We don't have mozzarella sticks in Italy but we have mozzarella in carrozza: slices of mozzarella inside two loaves of paincarré dipped in a batter, then covered with breadcrumbs and fried
We absolutely do have mozzarella sticks. Dove vivi, scusa? Li vendono in qualsiasi supermercato e li puoi ordinare in quasi ogni birreria.
I like how she asked why the bacon was brown. Our bacon is brown lol
in nz burger king has closed stores they were placed in receivership in 2020, they still have a few stores in some malls
The burgerking in Mexico was so damn good. Probably as good as JackIntheBox in its prime days. It was so busy too.
There's so much delicious accessible street food in Mexico that's much cheaper than any American fast food restaurant. Unlike in the US, people in Mexico tend not to visit fast traditional food restaurants as often. They're seen as closer in level to like a Chili's or Applebee's (which they have too).
That being said, from my experiences the American fast food restaurants I've tried in Mexico have generally been better overall than their US counterparts. I imagine the bump in quality is so they can compete with all of the better cheaper street food available all over the place.
There's a single Burger King in all of Mexico?
5:13 Har-cel face is such a refreshing thing to see 😅 🇵🇸
"French toast sticks" Got me dying on the floor
I've missed Claudia so much 💙
5:35 you need to Claudia,stay slim and keep 3.0-ing!😂😂😂😂
i would LOVE a version of this with no USA
I don't think I've ever tried the burger king fish sandwich before
Can you guys do us vs Singapore series
Claudia... Bella Bella Bella!!! 🌹
How long ago was this filmed cause saying when he goes to Europe. Yet there’s a few videos of when he visited Harry in the uk and did the forgin exchange series
(Before people come for me I know uk is not in eu but is in the content of of Europe )
9:59 - excuse me- royale with cheese? What do they call a Big Mac?
Wow, a surprising guest... I didnt expect to see her here in this channel..😂😂
we got rodeo burger in brazil and also a rodeio whopper which is my favorite
i only go to burgerking when the drive threw line at McDonalds is to long
Hey guys can you tell me why is they doing this not Complete full of UK
after that japan and china also this?
Tampak enak semua
4:37 That totally a Big Mac if BK made Big Macs.
The reason why is they add ice so it takes up more space. It is a 38 oz cup with 32oz liquid because of 6oz of ice
since Claudia showed up here in Food wars. this series is getting better, and roasting not only US versions of fast food but also not a huge fan of eating fast food! thank you insider!
Italian BK exclusive burgers look good - and big!
Love the doretoes chicken fries in uk
I'll give US BK credit -- the Impossible patty works exceptionally well with the other usual Whopper toppings to provide a burger that's not too far off from the actual beef version.
Order it as a double sometimes and watch the magic break. It's quite crazy the difference.
In Italy also we have 4 sizes for French fries and beverages: small, medium, large and king
I knew Joe didn’t like pickles, but Claudia doesn’t like pickles also? Oof, must be hard. 😅 Anyhow, didn’t know you can get Burger King in Italy. 👏 😋
AMC Theater @ Woodfield Mall I bet
I can't think of a single BK near me that's close to a McD's... maybe one is like a quarter mile away, which is pretty close but not like "across the street". My closest BK is like 10 minutes from the closest McD's. Kinda odd to consider that. Altho I feel like what I've always witnessed is Taco Bell being close to McD's. A lot of Taco Bells near me have usually been immediately next to or across the street from a McD's.
Been watching food wars now for the past 2 years and I just have to say American food is just so substandard.I love Claudia she's so amazing 😍 🥰 Italy has amazing food. Never knew that they had this tasty stuff Love to try it! Joe does the food wars and we love to get entertained.
id say some usa stuff better than uk where im from and visa versa ie i love uk zinger but usa spicy id say is more spicy also i see in usa they have a shatsukka frittata in pret in usa which ill get once im in new york
Claudia is terrible. They need someone that will actually try the food and sauces.
@@Had22scan't really blame her for not diving into 5 hour old burgers and cold fries...
@@denniswoycheshen she could try all the sauces.
Can’t trust a person who HATES pickles everything has its place
I love pickles.
Want to do South Africa vs America we have a lot of the same fast foods
One question during the drinks part, how is it that Italy has a full sized Monster energy drink as an exclusive instead of America? How?!
‘what am i missing here’
6 oz’s
You get more when you order no ice ,and the number at the bottom isn't the sizes it the code for witch box it came out of
Just letting you know tartar sauce is made with relish which is pickles
Jeez Claudia, I never thought I'd seeing you eating Burger King..
There's many that I want to be in Food Wars like Australia, Canada, Ireland, Singapore, South Korea, China, Brazil, France, Malaysia, Mexico, South Africa & Russia.
Who will agree to this?
Honestly, Food Wars: France would be entertaining if nothing else.
Just some guy refusing to acknowledge the concept of fast food and getting increasingly angry for 30 mins.
40 minute video of burger king?? I was over this in 3 minutes.
Please do Mexico
big macs are 99p in the uk next week , thats 1 dollar 23c roughly !!!
Drinks get ice in them, soda is a certain amount and ice is the extra amount.
When you opened up any of those burgers they all look digusting.
This fish patty from McDonald's and bk are both Pollak
We need Ireland, Wales, Scotland, Germany, France vs England, China, India, Mexico, USA. Just a suggestion
I wanna know why I can go to Burger King and get the rodeo burger (it doesn’t come with cheese in my area - NW Florida) but if I try to order it on doordash or Uber eats you can’t and can’t add bbq or onion rings to a hamburger 😢
Joe's brain source is correct. years ago, i worked for corporate and that's exactly how they picked locations.
Claudia is so glamorous.
The advertisement size is different from the actual amount because of the ice displaces the soda making the cup look full but in reality the ice increases the level of fluid it's called fluid displacement an object in liquid raise the water level but does not increase the volume so if you didn't put ice in the soda and filled the cup to the top it would be exactly as advertised
