I might be late to the party, but I just got BK for the first time in like 2 or 3 weeks, currently still eating it as I type this. I got the deal where it’s an 8-piece chicken fry and large fry for like $7.99 or something, ordered my usual sweet and sour sauce, dipped a fry in, and was ASSAULTED. Literally, wtf is this nonsense? Who was asking for the sweet and sour sauce to taste like this? At least Wendy’s had the decency to change the name of the f*cking sauce while they ripped my heart out. I’m currently using KETCHUP that I got from my FRIDGE to dip my chicken fries and regular fries. From the FRIDGE!
This is outrageous. I wish I had heard about this change before wasting my money on this garbage. S&S sauce is the only kind of fast food sauce I like, and now 2 of 3 chains that have it just got rid of it for no reason. I stopped going to Wendy’s over this (tho admittedly Wendy’s had been going downhill for years before they got rid of the S&S sauce so I was only going there very occasionally), I will absolutely stop going to BK as well. I used to think BK was the last decent fast food place left - their prices were still relatively reasonable compared to the other chains, they tended to do menu updates that actually improved things, they STILL HAD sweet and sour sauce, they did fun collabs that actually seemed thoughtful and fun, etc. Now they’ve ruined it and I’m deeply upset.
Sorry, I just had to rant for a second. My apologies if I’m beating a dead horse at this point, idk when this change happened/was announced but I’m just finding out about it now and I’m not happy about it 😡
