Why are A&W onion rings so good?

>> No.9614811

Couldn't tell you. I've never had them.

I can't remember what they're like, it's been over 10 years since I've been there. Applebee's, despite what the haters say about their food in general, has some god damn good onion rings. They might be the best item on their menu.

Their salty, sweet, and fatty. Everything the human brain needs to have a foodgasm.

They are ok, the breading is really separated the onions like to fall out, I could go for a grandpa burger with extra cheese right now.

Is it true that American A&Ws are significantly different from ours?

>> No.9615064

IHOP has some of the best onion rings i've had at a chain restaurant

>> No.9615071

I remember when I was in college, I had to drive across the state to go home for holidays and such. The town that was the mid-point of the drive had an old school A&W where you sat yourself at a table and ordered from a phone. It was one of the last ones in the country.

They aren’t frozen from a bag.
The onions are hand-cut and breaded in store.

Maybe if A&W made some more restaurants people would actually eat there. Never seen one in my life.

They good, but there's no reason to get them when A&W's offers some of the best sweet potato fries you can get

>> No.9617081

>>9614803
Man, I just couldn't get into them when I visited Canada last. I think the ones I had were really salty and the coating on them was really bready/crumbly.
Couldn't get into them. Glad you like them though OP.
Fucking burgers from there are top notch though. Also root beer. Best drank ever (non alcoholic).

>> No.9617093

>>9616987
We've got a couple in my town. They're not bad for fast food. I'd put them on par with a well-run Wendy's for price & quality. Root beer floats instead of frostys, and not as many LTOs, but nor bad.

>>9614803
It's one of the few foods that have a solid crunch that's immediately followed up with a savory sweet flavor.
>>9617081
It's honestly just a timing thing. When their fresh their a solid 10/10, but if they've been sitting for a while on a hot tray their basically dog food.

>> No.9619288

canadian A&W is god-tier.
they have no ties to the american A&W anymore, which I find to be absolutely awful the few times I had it in the US.

>> No.9619453
