Man I love Accent on whyte. Mornet is just such great comfort food, schnitzel should be a staple.

My SO tried it and thought it just OK and prefers Wendy's. And Wendy's serve it without a biblical Catholic message on the wrap.

^I'm sure they wouldn't, it's not part of their marketing scheme. For Burger Priest it is; don't like? Don't read.

Don't eat in first place. Not interested in religious spam while eating.

Typical Trekker, getting his panties knotted up over the most inane shit imaginable.

I don't eat at Burger's Priest because the burgers are overpriced and not worth the ridiculously long wait after ordering. I tried it twice, I was not blown away. It was very quiet when I went past it on Monday night, so who knows how long they'll last anyway. Maybe I'll give them one last chance and see how fast they are.

You can't just post without the drive by remarks? We are all entitled to our opinions. And frankly the wrappers on their burgers are indeed part of the experience. Just like hot sauce or seating. I am entitle to comment on the religious overture like any other aspect of the dining experience. I don't need and nor does anyone else your censorship or attempt to manage posts.

Pardon my ignorance as I have not been to Burger Priest, nor am I likely to, but aren't those biblical verses plastered all over everything meant to be satirical ?

No. And my SO did not realize until eating the burger and looking around. Some
might say so what and others alarmed if they thought the Priest meant the higher order of hamburger makers or such...but in this case turns out it soft sells a particular religion.

That's always how I interpreted it.

Either way, not worth it. Portions are small and flavour not at all what I would expect for the price.

It's better in Toronto.

The owner is Christian - but in an interview said it was done in jest and that he doesn't expect to convert anyone, nor is it his intention to try.

Hallsy's Toupee · #**4059** Posted **Feb 10, 2016, 11:07 PM**

When I was there, nobody tried converting me to Christianity. Hell if I'm gonna eat something, I'm not reading anything except the menu. Any scripture and such is easily ignorable. But I guess that's just too difficult to do in this current age of oversensitive crybabies and the social justice warriors who white-knight on their behalf.

s4.audios · #**4060** Posted **Feb 10, 2016, 11:46 PM**

^Can I get an amen!

I dunno about you guys but I rather enjoyed the burger I had. It is pricey but there is a ton of stuff and flavor in there, although felt my arteries clogging up with every bite I took. It was good but definitely not an everyday thing. Only been once so I think I'm overdue on a visit, possibly my next hangover when I'll need some grease to please me.
