I think I just met bacon I don't like. :frown2:

 

My cardiologist is cringing just from me writing "flame broiled bacon stuffed timbits".

 

Canada can have BK, the "food" they offer is crap anyhow.

It's just a small payback for Justin Bieber.

 

Never met a bacon I didn't like.

 

Oh No, That's just plain wrong.
My Eyes! :eek6:

 

Dave, we are slow in these parts. :smilewinkgrin:

 

The thing is here in the US Tim's has nothing to distinguish themselves from the myriad of other places with a similar menu.

In Canada Tim's was often the first venue of it's kind in many of the small towns. They also do a lot to support the community. The chain plays off its founder’s hockey roots, sponsoring minor hockey development programs, and can be found in practically every city in the country. The company has 3,453 locations in Canada, more than McDonald’s has in Canada.

My own thought on this "merger" is the BK is buying Tim's to move the BK HQ to Canada where the taxes will be a lot lower over the long run. BK is not buying Tim's for the Timbits, but for the tax dodge.

 

I'm loving it.....

We will soon be able to git a donut burger at both places... How can this be, not good????

 

Sorry, Chuck...maple bacon is fine, but the maple loses its flavor wif da beef!

 

Can it be any different than when Wendy's owned them? No worries, I'd say their stellar level of service will be maintained. :donut1:

 

That was last weeks news.

 

Wonder what will happen to there side-by-side stores that share a location with a Wendy's (maybe that is just a C-bus thing)?

 

Tax dodge yes, so many American companies have done the same thing or moved production off shore.:nonod: So since BK is going to save a boat load of cash I guess that means all of those poor working drone's at BK & Tim's will now receive a living wage. :wink:

 

I can't wait until they start flame broiling the donuts!

 

Let me introduce you to Morningstar Farms Tofu Bacon.

 

My arteries are hardening just looking at that pic Chuck.

 

I had a maple bacon donut last time I was in Cincy. The flavor was good but the bacon needed to be crisper. I didn't like a chewy donut.

 

I'll take a BK over a Mickey Grease ANYDAY!
