The streamer's trick to clone the Burger King burger
Pablo Ganyo explains it step by step: toasting the bun, mimicking the sauce and the patty. But the debate goes further. Tobias Rieper declares: "Burrikin, Macdonals, Telepizza… all the iconic chains of our childhood are now worthless: bland meat, soggy vegetables, dry bread and outrageous prices." A diagnosis shared by many who see a general decline in quality.
Nostalgia for lost quality
What used to be a recurring treat has become an expensive, mediocre product. The "100% juicy beef" is nothing more than a marketing ploy; in reality it's poor, dry meat, as several analyses point out. The bun, the vegetables and even the pickles (the subject of a desperate cry from Mayor Jasón) have lost their touch.
The Iberian alternative
Slopez states the obvious: who is going to eat that when they have Iberian pork, farmhouse bread and Manchego cheese at hand? And to drink, a Muga or a Viña Alberdi. The comparison is brutal. The success of fast food chains can only be explained, according to jefe de la oposición, by the lumpenization of civil society. The startling figure: despite the low quality, these chains' revenue keeps rising.
