[@juryc9042]

@@TarotRider-t2m I cook 5 days a week. Not as bad as it sounds and unfortunitly a necessity, anything quick nowdays like fast food comes a price. The lower cost u pay for the food, is a higher cost on your body and health. Far as cooking at home, Crockpot goes a long way for anyone, especially if you live solo or have kids n such. Easy and way better than filling the body with garbage.

The truth is Big Boy has been selling basically the same sandwich since the 1930's.

[@kurtinfl]

I'm so glad that somebody recognized this fact. The Big Boy is far better as well.

[@vincegay986]

Yup. Bob Wian invented the double-deck burger in Glendale, CA in 1938. It was a way to offer more meat without adding to cooking times and without risking a greasy burger.“Secret sauces” originated at Big Boy restaurants, as well. Pre-mixing two or more ingredients like ketchup, relish, mayonnaise, decreased prep time.I like the West Coast Bob’s Big Boy burger, with the red relish (pickle relish and ketchup) and mayonnaise.

[@kurtinfl]

@@vincegay986 red relish sounds gross. I only ever had a Big Boy with the mayo/relish combo. I must add that the Big Boy has that crispy sear on the patties and the finely shredded (almost floss) lettuce which definitely makes a better burger.

[@vincegay986]

Kurt Smith This varies from place to place, but the red relish is what’s on the original Big Boy. It’s a product that companies like Heinz also sell in supermarkets. Some of the Big Boy franchisees in the past used a Thousand Island dressing kind of sauce that McDonald’s secret sauce may be patterned after. Frisch’s, the first franchisee (Bob’s being the original), is based in Cincinnati and now owns the most Big Boy restaurants, more than Big Boy International, which now owns Bob’s. The Frisch’s Big Boy has shredded lettuce, cheese, pickle chips and tartar sauce.

[@russknecht7271]

I ate Big Boys back in the late 70's and can still remember that flavor. Just can't find them anymore.

[@FIRETRUCKFTW]

The big macs always make me hungry after like 30 minutes

[@l.c.boogie1219]

I use to be a huge fan of the big mac, now I am sort of a more conservative fan of big mac mainly because the big mac has changed over the years and not necessarily for the better. The burger is plain tasting and of lower quality than the big mac I use to eat in the 80’s and early 90’s when I was a kid. The only reason I am still even a moderate fan of the big mac because of the special mac sauce which surprisingly has not change over the years. If not for the Mac sauce, I would have been given up on the Big Mac.

[@michaelmedlen784]

The Grand Mac, though with identical ingredients, tastes not as good as a standard one because there is too much bread. A Grand Mac would taste better with larger patties.

[@amaya7836]
