A California man’s first stop in Texas wasn’t a barbecue joint or a steakhouse—it was Whataburger. But instead of being blown away by the Lone Star State’s favorite burger, he left unimpressed, sparking an online debate that has Texans shaking their heads.
TikToker Takes on Whataburger—and Loses
The TikToker in question, @how.kev.eats, wasted no time after landing in Dallas, TX. In a video filmed from what appears to be his rental car, Kev shared his much-anticipated Whataburger review.
Unfortunately for him, Texas was not amused.
- He called the burger meat “synthetic”
- He complained about the “meat-to-topping ratio”
- He admitted the fries had a good texture but were “too bland”
- His final verdict? A harsh 4.3/10
And then, the Texas-sized backlash began.
Texans Fire Back
Texans are fiercely loyal to Whataburger, and they did not take kindly to Kev’s review. The comment section erupted with reactions like:
“Spoken like a real Californian.”
“Bro has no idea what he’s talking about.”
“It’s OK, not everyone can be right.”
“No way, bro. No way.”
A few commenters agreed with Kev—but according to most Texans, they’re just as wrong.
Is Whataburger Overrated? Texans Say Absolutely Not.
While @how.kev.eats stands by his 4.3/10 rating, many Texans argue that he must have gotten a bad burger or that his California taste buds just can’t handle the greatness of Whataburger.
Some even joked that his taste buds got lost on the flight and must be on their way to Los Angeles instead.
