I had a coupon for buy one, get one free so I stopped by and grabbed one for my wife, and one for me....Where do I begin?....at the begining I guess....1st, the patty is so big, as much of it hangs off the side of the bun as is on the bun....If you cut it in half, it would be big enough to make 2 normal burgers, and frankly I would prefer that....if i wanted to eat meat by itself, thats what I would have ordered....2nd, one bite in I realized that the King has lost his freaking mind....an odd taste and an odd texture greeted my mouth as mashed freaking potatoes oozed out....mashed potatoes? really? thats the idea? mashed freaking potatoes....if they were decent pototaes, it might have been ok, but they tasted like they came out of a banquet frozen dinner....come to think of it, the pattie tasted like it came from the same package....that ruined it for my wife, she couldnt continue....I scrapped off the potatoes, but they were soaked into the upper bun, so I had to eat the rest as an open faced burger....it was a decent burger once I fixed it....its definetly not worth the $4.50 they want for them, Id never buy one again, even if they put them on the dollar menu....
they sell a regular steakhouse burger, without the "loaded", that might be damn good....if you are hell bent to try one, get that one....
I wonder what "the King" will think of next? sheesh. Why is it that some people will try to stick *anything* between two buns? Some things just don't belong there, including mashed potatoes.

The regular steakhouse is pretty solid. Never had the loaded steakhouse. Mashed potatoes on a burger seemed like a stupid idea to me.
The Loaded Steakhouse is the 2nd best burger I've had at a fastfood restraunt (BK Quad Stacker is my favorite). You are missing out if you get it without mashed potatoes. The burger is so damn good, especialyl with those buy one get one free coupons. btw, i only could finish about 3/4 of the second burger. These things are huge.
Huh... I didn't think it actually had mashed potatoes, just some kind of sour creme and chives shit. Either way, It wasn't on my "got to have it list". Panera makes a pretty mean breakfast sandwich though.
The BK near my home has been closed down twice. They'd ruin your food *every* time. I think it's becoming an Arby's now. So that's tainted my opinion of Burger King. I generally won't eat it unless I'm dragged there. A mashed potato burger just encourages me to stay away.

Its alot better for ya.</div> +1 it just tastes a hell of a lot better too. stuff a homemade burger with blue cheese in the middle.. amazingly great.
I'm no elitist, I admit to occasionally eating fast food. The great thing about fast food is that people with busy lives can stay busy and still get something to eat while they only have a small window of time to get it done. The problem is when people make it a habit. My personal favorite is the Big Mac w/no lettuce. I never get fries or soda either, becasue that's where the real health issues exist. Their hamburgers, stand alone, are not that bad for you. Yes, they have calories, but I burn a lot of calories too. Here is a tip, always order your burger *special*, so that they have to make it fresh. Don't order it as is. They might hand you one that they made an hour ago.
