If you were dying of hunger, both would be a bad idea. You might get refeeding syndrome.

I like both of them and wouldn't need to be dying of hunger to consider either one. :lol:

I like both of them but probably prefer BK if I had to pick between the two.

I like American fast-food lots more than American Mexican so I would def always pick BK over Taco Bell. Me & my girlfriend went to BK a few days ago :mrgreen:

Burger King.

Because I don't know what Taco Bell is.
Because I'm outside US, in a part of country that isn't as modernized or westernized as the capital.

Never eaten Taco Bell. One actually opened in a town near me a few years back. I'd never seen one in the UK before. Doesn't appeal to me.

I'll eat a BK burger. Although Burger King seems to have vanished from High Streets now. I don't see them anymore except in motorway services or airports.

I was actually so hungry once that a block of butter, a bag of sugar and a pint of milk carried me through to pay day for a few days

I would have loved a burger king at that point

If one was dying of hunger, one would eat either as any food would be better than no food. What is a taco bell? I know what a bell is but what is a taco? Do they make a ringing sound as you eat them?

If I were dying of hunger, I would pick the one that was physically closer.

Taco Bell. I never eat BK. I don't know why. I used to all the time. But hardly ever in a very long time. I get TB on a regular basis though.

Burger King is the worst of the worst.

Definitely Taco Bell.

Thirty five years ago, I lived in a town that had a Burger King on the edge of town. One time we had a power outage but the Burger King still had power. So I went over there.

That was the most pathetic hamburger of my life. The fries, too. One bite of each and I threw the rest away.

About the only way I would even try Burger King again would be if they gave me a number of completely free coupons for their food. Maybe if I ate there ten times and all were okay, I would continue going there again. One bad item, though, and it would probably take another thirty five years go go there again.
