What could they have done worse than being a burger king
Maybe they were too good
very real chance the corporation raised the prices of the franchise ingerdients without raising the prices of the franchise menu items and this location's owner had a relationship with the local ingredient distributor, ran the numbers, and figured they could sell enough burgers in the local community to make more money than they would keeping the random walk-ins who go into a burger king because they know what they're getting.
Being a burger ~~prince~~ Andrew?
Excuse me ... Fux???
Who do I have to whopper to get a fux around here?
BACON FUX !!
It appears to be German.
Right, but that still doesn't make sense. The only dictionary entry I'm finding for Fux is a variant of Fuchs, which means Fox, or colloquially a few other things unrelated to food like 'fraternity pledge'. Fuck is Fick (n) / ficken (v) so it's seemingly not that.

This doesn't necessarily mean it's a bad shop. Maybe being a franchise wasn't helping their business, so they dropped it.
It might be better than BK, that wouldn't be hard to do. BK is the worst of the major franchise burger shops, by far. I'll eat at Arby's before I eat at a BK.
Say what you will about Arby's...
... There's no "but". I won't stop you.
(Their spicy mayo - sorry, "horseradish sauce" - is pretty good though)
And now you can completely avoid Arby's and still get your Horsey Sauce fix: https://copykat.com/arbys-horsey-sauce/
I make a homemade version of the Arby's Beef and Cheddar. Even bought a deli slicer just to get that piled-up effect. The Horsey Sauce recipe above nails it. The Arby Sauce however... I've yet to find a proper copycat recipe. I think there might be citrus (lime?) in Arby Sauce but it's not listed in the ingredients.

It depends on the country I guess. Here in France I'd do a BK over McDonald's any day. But it would loose to a Roadside (local burger chain) in most cases.

How bad does a BK need to be to get kicked out of the worst by far fast food chain?

Me: One fux, please.
Burger ~~King~~: Sorry, we're fresh out of fux to give.
Who the fux going to go in here?
The burger isn't going to fux itself...
How many fucking people did their food have to kill to lose the Burger King franchise?
Sorry, that's an trade secret.
Probably gave too many people the correct order. That goes against the BK franchise code if the one near me is anything to go by.
Ingolstadt apparently. I couldn't find the exact one, but there appears to be only 2 burger kings in the city, and I suspect it's this one (warning: google streetview)
God what a beautiful city Ingolstadt looks like from above though, with the Danube flowing through it, and the old city having an actual green belt around it
Edit: @zout@fedia.io found it here!
Fun fact in case you didn't know, the green belt you are referring to is the leftover area of what was once the city wall. You can still kinda see it in the star like shape of the green belt and there are a few old fortifications left for sightseeing.

At first I thought this was part of the No Kings protest.
I was thinking about trying Jack-in-the-Box for the first time so I downloaded the app, and my local joint wasn’t listed. Did some digging and they were apparently delisted because their google reviews were truly awful. Exclusively one stars for the last year. Stuff like “person in the drive through window tried to climb out of the window like the girl from The Ring and fight me” and “the chicken was still straight up frozen, like directly from the freezer not a little cold in the middle”. I thought they always had a long line because it was good, but it turns out people get stuck in that line for an hour and can’t get out.
That's too bad, because Jack-in-the-box is one of the better chains IMO.

It is probably like the KFC in a neighboring town. They owner was so cheap and let it get run into the ground. When he stopped paying the chain they were going to come remove his signs. So he Painted Chicken over all of them and started buying the same or similar products from the the local food distributor he got a lot of KFC's products from. Of course it was his shitty management that lead to that and things didn't improve after it was just 'Chicken'. It stayed there three or four more years though.
All I know is that I am getting some mixed feelings from the menu items with names like "Big Fux XXL"
