Sat Sep 19 06:08:10 -0700 2009 154476 Lindseyup67 1 5041884 I have tried the Big Carl which has 2 patties and 2 slices of cheese, It is good in itself for $2.49 out here in california but tastes nothing like a big mac. The Hardees version is 3 patties and looks like it would be similar to the big carl. If they spiced up the thousand island dressing and chopped the lettuce and added pickles it would be more like the big mac.

Went to my closest Hardee's on Sunday night, and they were sold out. The guy at the drive thru said those things were going like crazy. Oh Well, maybe another time.

Tue Sep 22 19:00:52 -0700 2009 5049069 1104035 RCTRIPLEFRESH5 3 5051006 How about the economy is not good, so companies are cautious. A new product and demand exceeds expectations. Your impression may be right, but they had more demand for product than they planned. I own several retail businesses and would love to have that happen these days. I don't think they should be criticized for at all. Tue Sep 22 20:37:06 -0700 2009 5050837 22235 otps 4 5051032 im not criticizing im just curious. dont they make all of the burgers from the same emat? carls jrs and hardees cooks their meat in front of you. if they have meat cant they make the big hardee or is the big hardees patties different than the standard sizes they have that they cook with? i dont have a hardees or carls here but i know at fuddruckers and cheeburgers they cook all the burgers from the same meat just use different sizes. unless yo uask for osttrich or buffalos./ Tue Sep 22 20:49:04 -0700 2009 5051006 1104035 RCTRIPLEFRESH5 5 5052119 I can't say for sure because I have never been in the back of a Hardees, but I would imagine that they use pre-formed, pre-weighed patties that are probably frozen, so they probably aren't able to cobble together a couple of Big Hardee patties on the fly. I would guess that most fast food joints don't have a pile of ground beef just sitting around to make their patties. I went to BK once and ordered a Whopper. They told me they couldn't do it because they were out of Whopper buns. I asked if they could put it on a regular bun, and they said no. Seems ridiculous to me. Wed Sep 23 09:23:46 -0700 2009 5051032 123676 Velvet Elvis 1 5055626 I liked the commercial and I normally like Hardee's burgers so I gave it a shot. WORST BURGER EVER! They should called it "The Big Piece Of Crap". They should not be allowed to compare it to the Big Mac whatsoever. Terrible, terrible, terrible. And much smaller than the ad makes it appear. I honestly asked the restaurant if they gave me a Junior burger by mistake. Nope, it was "The Big Hardee's."

Fri Sep 25 14:21:13 -0700 2009 5055626 1106099 ArrowSmith 3 5059824 I agree, they only put that 2 cent piece of bread in there to make you think it's big, it is not. The tomato would help.
