The last time I had one was on the way back from a gig and we stopped off into ASDA to pick up more booze and we bought cheeseburgers and microfries for a laugh.


Was already drunk so couldn't tell you what it tasted like.

If you are in a hurry and need a quick fix then the combination of protein and carbohydrates if a good combination.

The quality of meat is obviously low grade. The beef looks like pattie. I've tried them and like them but everything about them feels quite plastic.

The best thing about Rustlers are the sauces, that's where all the flavour comes from. Without it, it's like eating cardboard.

I've wanted to try the Hot dog.

I think the main problem is the amount of chemicals involved to make them last.

They disected on in a lab on a River Cottage programme.

They are absolutely revolting and I always hate myself afterwards. But for some reason I can't stop myself buying them when want something hot, quick and microwaveable.

I love them and have them all the time, burgers, chicken burgers, hotdogs, and the chicken sub are all lovely!

They're brilliant if you have a nasty hangover. That's the only time I'd ever eat one! Even then I hate myself for eating one.

Protein is the natural hangover cure. It's natural your body would crave something like a Rustler's. Any burger or bacon sandwich will suffice.

I quite like Rustlers in a 'Oh God, this is so bad it's good' kind of way, but they do terrible things to my stomach! Seriously, it's not pretty. I avoid them.

Like the Feasters Chicken sandwich, the mayonnaise is lovely. Think it's Feasters, plain chicken without any breadcrumbs. Eat it cold, tried heating it once and it tasted a bit iffy.

Only get them if they are on offer though.

I like Rustlers burgers but like others has said, they ain't very good for ya. It's a quick fix, if I wanted a gormet burger I would make my own.

Both Rustlers and Feasters chicken sandwiches have no breadcrumbs Rustlers mayonnaise however now has black pepper in it.

I would never eat it cold though yuck

Are you supposed to eat them cold, I thought that they needed to be heated through, sounds pretty gross tho.

They are disgusting but I love them.

Can't choose between the cheeseburger and chicken burger so I usually buy them both.

However neither compare to Chicago Town microwaveable pizzas - which I also eat two at a time.

Once in a blue moon I have one, but I wish they sold the sauce on its own. They'd make a fortune from me at least if they did that.

You say this, but they have short expiry dates..

tbh I have no shame in saying I much prefer them to the "better quality" fresh burgers you can buy, which are always over seasoned with pepper. I always stick a lot of salad on and toast the bun, they are great, especially Rustlers for their sauce.

Well whatever they are there for there are a lot of them involved for a simple burger.

I'm a bit of a food nazi, but when I was in the uk they were my guilty pleasure.

I can't remember which burger it is - but the orange packet sauce - I could eat that all day. Delicious!

I too feel guilty about eating one of these. They're clearly trash - but sometimes, like a Pot Noodle, it's necessary.

They really are some of the most worthless junk food you could ever buy. Even a MacDonalds is healthier and that's saying something.
