      The fun thing is, both emotionally and semantically a burger means a citizen as in the opposite of a king.

        Right, but that still doesn’t make sense. The only dictionary entry I’m finding for Fux is a variant of Fuchs, which means Fox, or colloquially a few other things unrelated to food like ‘fraternity pledge’. Fuck is Fick (n) / ficken (v) so it’s seemingly not that.

          It’s a quirky spelling for Fuchs, yes. And it’s about fast food names, what do you expect

    I was thinking about trying Jack-in-the-Box for the first time so I downloaded the app, and my local joint wasn’t listed. Did some digging and they were apparently delisted because their google reviews were truly awful. Exclusively one stars for the last year. Stuff like “person in the drive through window tried to climb out of the window like the girl from The Ring and fight me” and “the chicken was still straight up frozen, like directly from the freezer not a little cold in the middle”. I thought they always had a long line because it was good, but it turns out people get stuck in that line for an hour and can’t get out.

        very real chance the corporation raised the prices of the franchise ingerdients without raising the prices of the franchise menu items and this location’s owner had a relationship with the local ingredient distributor, ran the numbers, and figured they could sell enough burgers in the local community to make more money than they would keeping the random walk-ins who go into a burger king because they know what they’re getting.

    It is probably like the KFC in a neighboring town. They owner was so cheap and let it get run into the ground. When he stopped paying the chain they were going to come remove his signs. So he Painted Chicken over all of them and started buying the same or similar products from the the local food distributor he got a lot of KFC’s products from. Of course it was his shitty management that lead to that and things didn’t improve after it was just ‘Chicken’. It stayed there three or four more years though.

    This doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a bad shop. Maybe being a franchise wasn’t helping their business, so they dropped it.

    It might be better than BK, that wouldn’t be hard to do. BK is the worst of the major franchise burger shops, by far. I’ll eat at Arby’s before I eat at a BK.

            Nope.

            Edit: Unless they replaced beef with fox (Fuchs) meat or it’s the owner’s name or something. In which case it would only be stupid.
