Though we try our hardest to be healthy, sometimes you just can't resist some fast food. And what better place to get your fried food fix than Burger King? People love the popular chain for it's tasty menu and encouraging "Have It Your Way" slogan, but they might want to rethink their order the next time they stop by.

While flavor is never a concern when ordering food from Burger King, freshness may be. Several fast food chains get a bad rep for serving meals that lack in freshness, and it looks like BK may be one of them. One employee says customers should avoid THIS sandwich because it's probably been sitting around for a while.
"The less popular products might be fried then left on the warmer for longer than you would like, freshness-wise," says Reddit user and Burger King employee Giulls. "We didn't serve anything that was gross or unhealthy, but the less popular products might not be fresh off the grill/fryer. I wouldn't order them unless you specify fresh ones."
So, what are some of the menu items that were left hanging out for a while? Giulls said it was the "tender crisp, fish, chicken fries, nuggets, and whopper jr patties."
And it looks like another BK employee is confirming that the Big Fish Sandwich isn't always served fresh. "Yeah, I worked at a BK for a few days in college and the fish was the worst offender," Reddit user schwoogiejoe24 replied. "We had the same 2 or 3 fish filets in the warmer for entire days sometimes."
Yikes! That is definitely good to know. For all of you who enjoy a Big Fish Sandwich from time to time, you might want to consider trying another menu item next time...
