Never any swirls left? Try a Pain au Raisin. Or 411 of them.

I am inclined to cut the media more slack than most, but fucking hell...
Company removes unauthorized painting/mural from own property should not be a story, let alone a story that is sympathetic to the illegal work simply because it's issue du jour.

And they wonder why large sections of the public hold them in such low regard

I have to confess I gave fergburger a miss on my trip to Queenstown last year. I saw the lines and thought fuck that and went somewhere else.
Doesn’t take much to offend people these days, thank goodness the person in question went to the media to tell them how outraged they were

But they didn't say if they enjoyed their burger?

I'm so old I remember when you could get a Fergburger without having to queue.
Perfect illustration of the mindless herd instinct of the social media generation. Queue for fucking ever just so you can say you've had what is a very underwhelming burger.
Still its built the 'Ferg' empire. The bakery, deli and bar are good but nothing is going to match the hype and expectations of the burger.

It's been many years, but I recall the burger being pretty good. I do remember going there at an off peak time because I couldn't be arsed queuing for ages. And that the bakery didn't seem anywhere near as good

@Catogrande said in Alternative needed from the absolute crap of stuff.co.nz:
No restaurant , certainly no fast food restaurant, is good enough to have me queuing out the door if there’s an alternative nearby.
None.
You never been to Tokyo mate? Everyone loves to queue for ramen bars, yakitori shops

What is it about Fergburger that got this reputation ? Anyone ?
If there were no lines out the door I would have happily gone to see for myself as I love a good burger ( can recommend Ekim Burger in Welly, outstanding and SUCH good value ) but like @Catogrande there is nothing that will have me lining up for ages when there are loads of other options very nearby.

Reputation probably built on a good product originally (I do have fond memories, it was a very nice burger) blown out of proportion by word of mouth and now social media

On this again.
If someone is offended these days why is their first instinct to sully the name of the reputation on Social Media ? I've seen the post in question on FB and from the comments it seems there is overwhelming support for "what she went through".
At worst it was some probably bored young fellas on minimum wage acting like dicks. Does it really justify the post ?

As usual you ramble quite a bit but you made your point eventually
Surely despite "the most horrible experience", and "feeling abused" and being "absolutely disgusted" a quiet message to management would be more appropriate ?
