Where to even start with this one?
When I opened up the frozen field, I used to be horrified to search out that regardless of its image the Big Stack did not really include any lettuce, eradicating any potential nutritious worth it might have.
The totally different components of the burger all got here pre-chilled which means I used to be compelled to spend 5 minutes microwaving it.
Once I had assembled it, I needed I hadn’t.
It was actually horrible

The completed burger smelled disgusting and was greasy in all of the unsuitable locations.
Oil had leaked from the burgers and congealed as fats on the buns and the burger sauce seemed pale and anaemic.
Sadly, it tasted even worse.
It tasted how I think about dog meals tastes, besides I very a lot doubt a dog would eat it.

Verdict
Spot the distinction

It wasn’t shut.
Not solely is the Big Stack’s packaging deceiving (there was no lettuce with mine), it can be a horrible burger.
It had extra energy than the Big Mac, seemed and smelled worse and tasted appalling.
I hope to by no means see this product once more.
