Vent: My brother made me try a different burger and I feel dumb

I was at my brother's place in Phoenix last weekend and we ordered burgers. I ALWAYS get the classic double from my usual spot. He told me to try the one from that place with the green sign, saying their sauce is 'next level' and the patties are 'actually seasoned.' I gave in and got one. It was SO much better, the meat had real flavor and the bun didn't get soggy. I've been eating the other one for like three years out of habit. Has anyone else had a go-to order that got totally shown up by something new?

Actually seasoned" patties are a game changer, I read a whole thing about how most chains just rely on salt and pepper.

Right? It's crazy how much better a burger is with actual flavor. Good call, @aaron150.

The Five Guys near me uses just salt and pepper on their patties and it's always packed. Sometimes simple seasoning lets the beef taste come through better. I mean, maybe it's just me but I don't always want a ton of extra flavors.
