So a Whopper, 10 hail marys and serenity prayer did the trick huh ? I often do the latter two when driving, but never in conjunction with a Whopper. Was it a single or double Whopper ? Which fixin's ?
If your ABS light came on too, I suspect it's related to the wheel speed sensors at the wheels (one per side) that's causing the glitch. TCS and ABS (and electronic throttle system, or ETS) work in conjunction with the input from these sensors.
The way I understand it, the wheel speed sensors tells TCS to intervene by reducing throttle (and applies ABS in your case of 5-spd car) if they detect differential rotational speeds, that is, if either R or L wheel is spinning at different speed than the other one. Automatic cars only intervene via reduction of throttle input. From the ABS perspective, the SAME speed sensors also tell the ABS system whether to apply/release brakes if when under braking the ABS detects premature wheel lockup and thereby release/pulsate the brakes to maintain rotation just under the threshold of locking up again.
Hope this helps.
