    both are great, and I probably also prefer shake shack, but I feel like at least at five guys they give you big portions

    idk, I really posted that bc I went there last night bc they have bogo chicken sandwiches right now, so I got 2 for $8.99

    They were TINY. Looked like sliders, literally a 3" bun/patty. I ate both and some fries and was still hungry after paying $14, (would have been like $23 without the free sandwich) and not even getting a drink.

    never had the chicken but I do agree the burger isn’t as big as five guys

    Shake Shack has more prestige, God knows if they still do but traditionally they sourced their meat from only one butcher

    also when it was just a stand in park there were always giant lines

    It was delicious, don't get me wrong but the portion size for the price was insane. If I'd have paid full price, I probably would have said something which I never do.

    At one point, yes. But that was a decade ago, and this is in Dallas TX in a strip mall with a million other options. I havent been there in years and I guess they do well, but it seemed crazy to me.

    Plus the water was too cold and the music was blaring

    I love Five Guys whole policy of making sure there are a shit ton of fries outside of the cup of fries they give you

    Probably just because Five Guys has like 10 times more locations than Shake Shack and not that many people have tried it comparatively.

    Trader Joe's frozen Papa Rellenas also rocks. Especially in the air fryer.

    My parents just got from vacation in Maine and brought me back Maine candy. Needhams, which is a mixture of coconut and potato covered in chocolate. You can't really taste of the potato, but it defintley has a mashed potatoey texture. It's like a thicker mushier Mounds.

    My boss put fun size Peanut Butter Snickers in her candy drawer and I've eaten like 30 in the last week. So damn good. Better than the OG.

    I've never been to shake shack but it'd be impossible for me to have a shake and a burger in one sitting. Just sounds gross. Maybe 10 years ago I'd give it a go, but one or the other is a calorie / gut bomb in and of itself. I barely eat a full serving of fries with a burger (assuming a decent portion of each).
