I love Burger King, I would eat there every day if I wasn't poor
My friend works there, and I was halfway convinced to join him. I used to work at KFC, and there, it was the Managers and Mexican's that made the food. So if you complained to whoever made the food, you had a 50% percent chance of them understanding the english exiting your mouth.
I'm guessing that is how it would be for a lot of restaurants. And isn't it mostly just prepackaged crap? We had flash frozen wings and popcorn chicken. Everything that comes out of Burger King was probably in the back freezer for a while, and not even originally prepared in the same building! The funky taste may be due to that.
I love the cookies and chicken fries... and if they are the place with the croissanwich, I love that too. I don't worry about pricing.
