i was just displaying my love/hate of fast food as well. I know its bad for me. i dont eat it often. the quality in fast food is the opposite of everything that i look for in good food.

Well, everyone knows that Taco Bell is the food that keeps on giving...and giving. If you ask your buddies and/or your wives, I'm sure they'd all agree that about an hour after eating taco bell, the room can take on a rather peculiar aroma. It's like a Glade Air Freshner gone bad. It just never seems to leave you, more specifically, your ass.

I thought at the end of the commercial BK said price and participation may vary. Why dont' those biotchin about the price just not lower it? I guess it would be bad for business but it seems they have a choice to me. It's a business decision and may be a tough one but they seem to me to have a decision none the less. I don't know BK politics so I can't comment too much but why have the disclaimer if they are required to follow the max price?

That is the point of the lawsuit, They dont have a choice or do they? I saw an article a while back about a BK owner in Grand Central Station, who filed a similiar suit, and I think that is the one aluded to in this article in which the courts said the franchisee must participate in national offers.
Making them sell the food at a loss? really, this is what I am not sure about, Was hoping some of you in the food biz would have some insight on this.

ps. sorry for hijacking this thread back to its scheduled destination.

I am not in fast food per se, but my expierence tells me any offer that brings in new customers and or drives order counts would be a good offer, Granted this double is 55% food cost, I just dont think every owner can say itys losing them money, you just cant pawn off every single penny of cost into every order, your paying the rent and the wages with or with out this offer. Especially if it is bringing in dollars they would not have been getting in the first place. I am curious if this organization that filed suit is truly on behalf of all its members or just a few high-rent, high profile owners grumbling the loudest.
