Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

The 100% beef is really just about it not having fillers added. Fast food seasons with at least salt.
Personally I think there's a line between what you add to a burger and it still being a burger. I draw the line at more than dry seasonings. Better beef, or a better blend of cuts will have a bigger impact on taste. The other toppings are meant to be separate to provide contrasting textures and enhance the flavor.
Yeah I was gonna say McDicks at least seasons their burgers with salt and pepper. You can see the pepper if you look at the bare patty. I don't think seasoning the burger takes away from the "100% beef". McDongles burgers are garbage because they're frozen, low quality meat, cooked by a guy sweating his ass off making minimum wage with nothing to potentially make it better assuming if they wanted to.
Man I have some real hate for the good ol' McCrongles beef burgers since I know and love how to cook my own burger. And I don't even get the good beef, it's just the regular stuff. And even if my patties were frozen, they still taste 85/90% of the way to fresh to me. I'm no purist or connaisseur, but darn even a fresh patty @ McHongles has to be pretty gnarly already.
Good thing they have breaded chicken!
The freezing and low quality beef are big problems. You also want a bit more fat than what a McDonald's burger generally has.
