Do you get heart burn or indigestion from fast food hamburgers?

Checkers burgers (aka Rally's)
always give me the worst heartburn.
So, I don't eat them.
They're loaded with grease.
One time, I stuck a Checker burger patty in a bowl
and microwaved it.
Afterward, there was a pool of grease under my burger.
That was the last time, I ate Checkers burgers.
I could just imagine all that grease
congealing in my heart! Yuck!

I have never been the type to get heartburn after eating a burger or anything else which is a good thing because I really like hamburgers from places like McDonald's and Burger King because they are so tasty,but I do often get really bad gas pains in my sides when I eat them,which are really uncomfortable and sometimes make it hard to move for a while,and I usually have to take two Gas-X and just wait for the pains to pass.

This was a normal thing with heart burn. Before I started taking prescription heartburn medicine it was a regular thing. I think it is from the grease from the burgers and fries. Grease is really hard to digest and gets the acid flowing and thus the heartburn. It could also be from the soda you most likely drink along with the burger.

Oh, me too! Checkers and Krystal "murder" burgers! Yuk! Unfortunately, they're delicious, especially in the middle of the night. But, hey, I discovered Prilosec and just can't live without it! I can eat anything I want to now!

I usually don't get heart burn from fast food burgers. But I do tend to get heartburn very easily. I don't know why but the weirdest things will give me heartburn. The worst though is anything spicy, I love me my spicy food but I will pay for hours to come with the horrible heart burn I get. Of course this never stops me from eating it!

hi beauty...yes sometimes it does give me heartburn. usually from hardees sandwich and fries. i don't eat there real often so i can get by with it. that's gross about the pool of grease under your microwaved burger.

i used to go there for the spiral fries when i lived in arizona.
but to answer your question-probably big mac's.

hi beautyqueen hi I only eat burgers at Burgerking as they are broiled not fried and have much less grease in them. all the other places give me heartburn but not Burger King as they really
are flame broiled.
