jquery comparing string with .val(); non expected result

In my page i have multiple buttons (input type=button) with class ="btnDisabled", every button's value is True or False.

why this code returns always false:

 $(document).ready(function () {

             $(".btnDisabled").each(function(f,el) {

                 console.log($(this).val() == "False");


             });


         });

typeof ($(this).val()) returns string

Taking an example,

 <input type="button" class="btnDisabled" value="True" />
 <input type="button" class="btnDisabled" value="False" />

In JS :

$(document).ready(function () {
  $(".btnDisabled").each(function(f,el) {
        console.log($(this).val() == "False"); 
   });
 });

Here in console we can see "false" for true button and "true" for false button which is correct. Please refer DEMO HERE if still if you not able to resolve this, Paste your complete code in you post.

$.trim($(this).val())=="False"

Just try with:

$(this).is(':checked')
