I will not make age an issue in this campaign. I'm not going to exploit for political purposes my opponent's youth and inexperience.

Doesn't Fuddrucker's also have bison and ostrich and other assorted exotics?
They do in Oklahoma, anyway.
But their regular burgers are so good, I never had the guts to try one of the off-beat burgers.

Did you know that McDonalds for a while served grassfed Argentina beef? Before grassfed was cool.

I know there's one in Ft Worth, but let's pretend like there is not, and I'll tell you Pappa's Burger kicks [deleted]. Was in Houston for Final Four, and saw it over by the Galleria, stopped in..good service, huge burger, a lot of choices...almost like an improved upon Fuddruckers.

Papps burger is good. I have been there a couple of times and would go back. Not a huge fan of Fudruckers.

I use to really like Fuddruckers, before they went, "big time", lots of melted cheese on the burgers those were messy and good. Now, they are ok but nothing like they use to be.

Did anyone know Nick and Sam's Grill (not to be confused with Nick and Sam's) served burgers?

Neither did I. OMG they're awesome!

In the purest sense, it might be the best-tasting burger I have ever had. Not the best overall burger experience (the bun is too big, and a little greasy), but the burger itself - the beef and cheese - were SENSATIONAL. Has as much flavor as any burger I have ever had.

Too much salt on the sweet potato fries, but overall, a very pleasant surprise. I definitely will be back for another.

Really? I hear so many bad things about that place, I figured that had to be at least one really redeeming quality. It seems that you have found it.

It's on my list now. Thanks for the rec.

Its a good burger, but just be sure to ask for cheese if you want it. Doesn't come with any otherwise
