LET'S TRY 36 DIFFERENT CARL'S JR. MENU ITEMS

[@nicowest]

After about the 7th Carl's Jr item the white board grocery list suddenly said "toilet paper". I think I know why he needs more of that.

[@ConsultingHumor]

I too am an avid watcher of the white board - it's like the b-plot

[@nicowest]

@ConsultingHumor It really is! Also, he's either forgetting to buy gloves, or he hasn't been grocery shopping in a while, assuming these taste tests are spread out. So much to ponder about.

[@nicks931]

Too funny, I noticed the list but not when it appeared! Laughed when I first saw it too.

[@limelimelimee]

It’s a nice healthy palette cleanser.

[@robovac3557]

Why's that?

[@Munchypotato]

the character development of the grocery list was truly breathtaking

[@TheCadman069]

The toilet paper is a good addition, based on this video alone, LOL.

[@KamenRiderGreed]

I can't wait for you to run through every fast food chain. Because then you'll eventually have to do Totinos Pizza Rolls.

[@graysoncampbell3459]

"Trying every kind of Tostino's pizza rolls.. all 3 flavors." Lol

[@42CZ]

​@graysoncampbell3459 well there's cheese, pepperoni, sausage, 3 meat, and Buffalo chicken at the very least still not a large number

[@nicowest]

Relatively few flavors, yes, but he could also try them from the microwave, the oven, and maybe even the stovetop and rate the differences.

[@zackeryh250]

Why stop at rolls? Why not Totino’s pizza products? Throw some party pizzas in there

[@Kegfarms]

There's also the brand new orange chicken ones.

[@volaticus817]

17:51 when the "B" becomes "Burger" after he says "B for Burger" is really subtle but funny editing - you're appreciated

I never had Carls Jr until i worked there as my first job. They have some of the best seasonal burgers. They had a philly cheese steak burger and a pulled pork burger that i want them to bring back

[@eXtremeLink859]

the Jim Beam Bourbon burger was the best thing they've ever made

[@phillystevesteak6982]

Their burgers are solid. But they are the most overpriced major-chain fast food burger joint. No contest. Even when considering inflation. They've been that way for years. I just cant justify their prices. Especially with In-N-Out accross the street. Which is a cheaper double patty burger combo than Carl's for better quality!

[@mysteryboyee]

@@phillystevesteak6982 nah, bk, a meal at BK literally costs the same as a meal at an actual fucking restaurant now

We have exactly one (1) Hardee's here in Pittsburgh. I remember once they were advertising a burger with an entire hot dog cut lengthwise on top of the patty. Always been disappointed in myself that I didn't bear witness to that atrocity first hand

[@inuasha1991]

I worked at Hardees years ago, but the chicken tenders and chicken sandwich (not charbroiled) are breaded in store rather than being something they put in the oil. I think it helps the quality a lot.

[@georgeclinton4524]

The Sourdough bun is always slightly soggy no matter what. Been that way for decades. A thin veneer of toasted crispness covering slightly soggy, slightly buttery bread.

Anyone else get some strong Bubble Bass vibes whenever SungWon asked about the pickles while lifting up the sandwich to peak in? Lol

[@LowlySlime]

I'm vegetarian so I don't usually have a lot of an opinion on these videos but Carls Jr does have my favorite fast food veggie burger

[@miguelsi7543]

Gotta remember the poppers too, on g

[@bluesdjben]

In my experience, Carl's Jr. has pretty good food, but it's pretty expensive, and there aren't really good options if you want something cheaper or smaller. Good if you want a big burger, but not much variety beyond that. Their milkshakes are really good though.

[@BeanyTA]

This video has made me realize how many more options Carls Jr has compared to its east half of the US brother, Hardee's. I'm kinda jealous as someone on the Hardee's side of the divide, but mostly I need to see Sungwon compare the two.

[@xc7525]

I’m the exact opposite lol

[@kittensmakingcandles]

I've loved Carl's Jr. for a very long time. Western Bacon Cheeseburger is their king item for me. I wish they'd bring back their legendary crinkle fries. Due to when the Western Bacon was added, and when the crinkle cut was removed, there was only a short period when you could eat both the Western Bacon and the crinkle fries together. That truly was a special time.

[@algernonftw42]

Nice. Had Carl's Jr. When I moved out to Cali a few years ago, had only had Hardee's a few times at rest stops on road trips in the past. Definitely impressed overall by their quality. Fries are legit top tier, their burgers are great, and I do love the bacon and Swiss chicken sandwich. They are like fast food+ overall.

[@xc7525]

Yea the western bacon is quality. They have good milkshakes too.

[@youlilgremlinkun]

Carl’s Jr. is never really talked about, but for me it’s actually at/just below the tier of McDonald’s, tbh. It’s way better than In n Out, which is way more popular for some reason. Better than Burger King, Wendy’s, Jack in the Box, etc.

[@zeat]

Your videos are my lifeblood. Without them I would be nothing.

[@tafffee6032]

I can watch sungwon eat forever

[@heroizumi]

Never had Carl's Jr's poppers, but after trying the ones at Getgo gas stations (regional for PA, OH, IN and WV), I became a fan of the chopped jalapeno in cheese goop over the halved jalapeno with cheese goop inside because 90% of the time you need to eat the halved variety in one bite cuz I can't always bite through the skin of the pepper. It's just a nicer eating experience cuz half the time with the halved ones, you end up with all of the pepper in one bite and a tiny blop of cheese in breading for the second half.

While I only had Hardee’s before, and I haven’t tried a lot of their menus since there isn’t one near me with the exception of one where my Grandpa lives at. I gotta say that I really love their Famous Star burger. It’s so satisfying that I’d say that it’s my second favorite restaurant burger next to Red Robin’s cheeseburger.

[@araminrain]

Yessss!!! You're back with more food reviews! Oh man, I love these

[@Daikuro1]

I watched this while hungry which was a terrible idea. The Western Bacon burgers are definitely the main draw for me to head to Carl's Jr. My opinion on the Famous Star is that I'd like it a lot more if the veggies were sliced just a bit thinner -- and I'm someone who LOVES onion slices.

[@itselguapo]

The moment you pulled out the double western I was like, "awww yeaaa that's my order, a combo along with the Jalapeno poppers." If i'm trying to save a bit of money I get the Big carl with jalapeno poppers. If I have extra money and want to get something to heat up later on, I'll get a chicken bacon ranch. Yea I agree with the chicken sandwiches they either put way too much on it, or a little tiny dot on it. Usually get side orders of ranch dressing.

We don't have Carl's Jr. down here, but we DO have Hardee's, their other brand. I actually really love their food, and while their breakfast is absolutely where it's at, their burgers are pretty solid as well. Really remember being shocked how good their chicken is, too.

[@Pipkiablo]

I'm glad you did this because the nearest Hardee's is an hour and eight minutes away from me, so I've never had them, but I'm still close enough to see advertisements all over the TV. I've always wondered what their food was actually like.

[@CadgerChristmasLightShow]

I recently got the jalapeno poppers with a coupon, they were really good but weird compared to normal poppers. They have nacho cheese sauce basically, instead of a cream cheese kinda filling. Its off putting if you arent expecting it, but still really good in a greasy fast food kind of way.

[@sangramos]

Sungwon parenting his friends was amazing haha

[@Null_Experis]

the sourdough not being crispy is because they assemble and wrap their burgers IMMEDIATELY, resulting in the heat from the toasted bread steaming itself. Poorly trained staff is the issue. They are under-toasting the bread, and should be letting the bread rest for 2 minutes after toasting, and it should be the FIRST thing they start when an order comes in, not the last as it often is when they're not trained correctly. They should also be packing toasted bun sandwiches in boxes with vent holes instead of wrapping them in wax paper. That's a corporate level failure.

[@RecliningWhale]

If the big hamburger had cheese on it, it'd be a cheeseburger. As a lactose intolerant person i do not feel like every burger needs cheese. And for what its worth, when I order a burger that comes with cheese and say no cheese, there's a 75% chance it will still have cheese on it.
