No one went to A&W for burgers back then, footlong chili dog and root beer.
This, exactly.
Anyone repeating this 1/4 vs 1/3 bullshit never had one of their 1/3lb burgers. They were fucking terrible. Sysco prison-grade burger patties, drowned in store-brand ketchup with a thin slice of "American"-flavored yellow #5.
Absolute worst burger I've ever had.
Growing up, A&W was for chili dogs and a big glass mug of rootbeer. Never order anything else; its always a fat sack of disappointment.
That must have been a US thing. A&W in Canada has had excellent Teen burgers for decades.
The hell is a "teen burger"? Canadians are eating the underaged!!
A&W now is pretty damn good in the US. As a Wisconsinite, their cheese curds are better than Culvers and it's not even close.
I miss it. We’d get footlongs and a gallon of root beer then go to the park across from it. I wonder if it’s still there.
But that can't be right! I have it on good authority that A&W stands for Amburgers and Woot beer!
