@Jdogg247 @Ox @matrix it also had a weird, spongy texture. Plus it cost a dollar more than a regular Whopper (not that those are good either, but it's edible). Maybe another store, one that doesn't have a reputation for "flame-broiled" flavor, might make a better-tasting fake burger, but it's gonna be hard to get around that kitchen-sponge texture.
I mean, there's nothing wrong with a little liquid smoke; I use it myself on certain things. It's not supposed to be a primary flavor though. If you go overboard with the liquid smoke, the food tastes the way those rancid little crunchies you clean out of the bottom of the barbeque smell.
