About a month ago, Burger King’s President, Tom Curtis, gave out his phone number, (305) 874-0520, and asked us to tell him what changes we think he can make to the burger joint.
So far, he has made changes to the Whopper and is working on the fries. And now, it looks like he is cleaning house.
The Burger King was seen outside the office building, sitting on the curb, looking sad, with a box of his office knick-knacks beside him.
So, has Curtis heard our complaints about how scary the mascot is, and fired him like they flame-grill their Whoppers? We don’t because there was no caption with the photo.
I thought I would be happy when this day finally came because he has given me plenty of nightmares. But because he looks so sad, it makes me sad. And I hope he gets his job back. Long live the Burger King.

Burger King has been off my list of restaurant chains for over a decade due to lack of systemic quality control.
LOVED that I could get a Frozen Coke with my lunch. But the last time I ate there, I ordered the Whopper value meal. Decided to eat in the restaurant on that particular day. Took a bite out of my Whopper… and a long, bright blue piece of plastic something (string? tape?) came out of the meat patty with my bite. When I took the sandwich apart, I could see the tape was embedded in the meat patty and quite visible.
Didn’t anyone see that before assembling the burger? See it before it went through the flame griller? See it as the meat packing plant? I took it to the counter and the manager looked at me like a cow chewing it’s cud. I asked him if that was normal? He just shrugged. I asked for my money back for the meal. He begrudgingly returned it, and I have never been back again.
This was at the BK on Rt. 81 in Fall River MA, btw.
Swore off them. Will never go back.
