Wendys vs. Mcdonalds

Which is better, Chick-fil-a or Zaxby’s? This is a popular debate. Some people would argue that Zaxby’s is better because they have better chicken. Other people would argue that Chick-fil-a is better because they have better sauces. They both have their benefits, but which is better over all? In order to find this out we can’t go off of taste because everyone has different taste preferences. We must look at many aspects of both restaurants. Some aspects that can determine whether Chick-fil-a or Zaxby’s is better are drinks, desserts, sauces, prices, efficiency, cleanliness, and the attitudes of the workers.

In a frantic rush you have to pick McDonalds or Chick-Fil-A which do you choose? How would you even begin to choose? What are the pros and cons of either restaurant? Both McDonalds and Chick-Fil-A are excellent restaurant choices for a fast food connoisseur, but the best restaurant choice greatly depends on the consumer’s budget, lifestyle, and taste preference.

Chick-fil-A is a cleanest restaurant I've ever been to. The bathrooms are clean, and the whole restaurant is clean. Their servers always say “my pleasure” or “have a nice day”.Their prices are not expensive, but not cheap. For example even get a chicken sandwich for $3.05 or 6 piece nuggets for $4.05.

An extremely colossal portion of citizens around our gracious Earth has heard of or visited a McDonald’s.

It has also introduced a feast after dark that is available after 10 p.m. This meal is made up of their Double Stack cheeseburger (pickles, onions, ketchup and mustard), an order of chili cheese fries and a 32 ounce drink for only $5.

The McDonald’s “Speedee Service System” launched in 1948 and made meals terribly cheap and fast. In Fast Food Nation, Eric Schlosser wrote, “The McDonald brothers’ Speedee Service System revolutionized the restaurant business… as word spread about the low prices and good hamburgers.” (20) For the first time, working-class families could afford to buy their children restaurant food. Customers were purchasing their “Pure Beef Hamburger” for 15 cents, and “Tempting Cheeseburger” for 20 cents.

Within today’s modern society we like to have everything when we want and have it at any given time. Growing with that trend, modern fast food places like McDonald’s and In-N-Out Burger have giving their consumers that very thing. Even though In and out and McDonald’s have been around for years, both vary their menus and the way they appeal to their consumers with the change of time. On the west coast, In-N-Out is favored more than it is on the east coast. While McDonald’s is a worldwide company, with restaurants open in France, China, Iraq, and also America.

BK, on the other hand, uses the continuous chain broiler, with a capacity of 8 burgers per chain, where no human intervention is necessary because the patties enter the broiler on one end and come out on other end after 80 seconds.

Exhibit 5 and 6 reveal the operating results for McD’s and BK, respectively. McD’s is ahead of the game in the sandwich dressing department, Exhibit 6 shows that BK spends 1.1% of their sales in condiments wastage. BK also uses microwave ovens to maintain the “Made to Order” warm and fresh burgers. The use of microwave ovens result in a 2.1% increase in utility cost compared to McD’s. On the other hand, the cost of food at McD’s is 1.9% higher compared to BK because McD’s keeps finished goods inventory in a bin for 10 minutes before they are discarded. In addition, the paper used to wrap the burger contributes to higher food cost of 0.9% at McD’s.
