This apparently was an issue specifically with some BK restaurants in Germany. BK food, like many fast foods, is not often the healthiest option. However, BK hygiene standards in the US and UK are usually fairly high.
Some German Burger King restaurants served out-of-date bacon, had mouse infestations, and sold vegan burgers contaminated by meat, according to an undercover investigation
At one Burger King restaurant, staff put new expiry-time stickers on old products including bacon and cheese, per an investigation by "Team Wallraff."

I had stomach issues too,can not read the article because it is too disgusting
Weird? I guess BK doesn't buy their ads or perhaps one of their competitors does?This apparently was an issue specifically with some BK restaurants in Germany. BK food, like many fast foods, is not often the healthiest option. However, BK hygiene standards in the US and UK are usually fairly high.

It reminds me of that episode of Seinfeld where he sees the pizza chef in the bathroom doesn't wash his hands and then he sees him knead the dough and flip it around and toss it... and he refuses to eat a slice...

Once I went to the bathroom in a shopping center and noticed pizza dough wrapped in plastic and then saw it stored in the back alley as well. There was an Italian restaurant right next to it and I guess they ran out of room in the restaurant. I obviously never ate there and wasn't surprised it went out of business
This is the Seinfeld scene

I eat at Cheesecake factory every now and then. They have a lower calorie section and even that's huge. I usually eat about half and if I get a slice of cheesecake split it among 4 people.
Funny thing, in college, we would sometimes look for donuts in the alley behind a local bakery...
Yeah, I was dumb...
I would rather have bigger portions, and take some of the meal home to eat the next day, than have such small portions ( as seen on some of the tv shows such as the Food Network, etc.. ) at a restaurant that you have to stop and get something to eat before you go home because you are still hungry.

Yet you lived to tell the tale!
Are you still trying your best to earn a Darwin Award?
So not much luck w/ the ladies? Well guess a donut would work in a pinch...
Pretty much... the thing I'm trying to figure out is that we weren't rich but neither were we poor. We had money for beer and things; I think we just didn't plan on being hungry at that time when everything was closed, and in that poor state of mind, dejected as we were, the suggestion of finding donuts seemed like a quest for a fabled chest of gold. It sort of redeemed the night for us.
These days, I don't eat donuts even if the company brings them in for free. My taste has changed and it's too sweet.
