Not the best
onion rings ever. In fact, they taste about as much like real onions as
Funyuns do. I challenge you to cut one open and try to find a relatively intact piece of onion. I don't think it is possible. I liken these to
chicken nuggets, as the insides of
chicken nuggets tend to not resemble anything
qua chicken. Unless I get a
microscope and start looking at the internal material of a
Burger King onion ring, I cannot be sure that there really is any onion involved.
Kind of interesting that
Burger King onion rings are all virtually the same size, eh? You say, "Maybe all of the onions they use are the same size." I say, "Take a look and open your eyes: an onion, being roughly
spherical in shape, would have cross-sections of various
diameter." I think it is obvious that Burger King is either doing some serious onion
wastage, or they put their onions through some sort of blending process, and then form the ring shape, and then let it solidify. I actually hope it is the latter, because I'd hate to think that onions are being wasted when they could be used to feed
hungry, onion-loving people.
For all their problems, they are a good
substitute for
Burger King fries, which I don't find to be very pleasant, and since such a substitution is permitted, I always take advantage of it when ordering a
value meal.
