I've had coffee and a doughnut from both places before and maybe it's because of the region of the country I'm from but I prefer KK to DD anyday.

DDs are more filling, especially the blue berry ones.

I've tried DD's blueberry ones and I didn't care for them. But on the positive for DD they have some GREAT iced lattes. :)


But there is one fast food place I've never ever had a problem with and that's Chick-f-la. My order has never been messed up when I've gone through drive thru or went in to eat, and on the rare occassion they do mess up, they remake it for you & give you a free coupon.

Oh and the best sweet tea is from Chick-f-la or McAllister's. Mickey D's and Zaxby's are just plain gross.

I've never had lattes from there.

I would say that Rally's has never given me a problem. Everything is always right and hot. I've always wondered about their meat though. I know it was a joke and all, but some people say it isn't beef.

I totally forgot about Dunkin Donuts. Yep, the same thing happened to me there too. It wasn't with the bagels though, it was with the donuts. RA, it was SO weird. It was as though part of the donut was infected with a different taste. Usually, I'll tear off the the bad piece and eat the rest. I did have one where the taste was so gross that it did end my breakfast that morning. I wonder what that taste is. Do they even know that this has been happening to people? It's got to be somewhere in one of their health policy manuals or something.

I agree.

I remember when I used to eat fast food, chicken McNuggets from McDonalds would leave a horrible taste in my mouth. Then I watched that movie about that guy that who ate too much McDonalds and it made him sick.

Yeah, Starbucks hot chocolate is too strong. And yes, Dunkin Donuts are the best.:)

Oh, lol thanks.:o:p I didn't know what it was, I just knew at the time that it was gross.

I've never had issues at Sonic, Culver's, or Good Times.

The last two are local chains, and I think Culver's is still family owned.

And if you get snotty about it when you come back after getting a mile away and realizing that you did a dumb thing by driving away and not looking in the bag, and come back and blame them for it, they will spit in your food! I know, I used to work there! And yes, I spit in the food ALOT! Especially to loud mouthed snotty bitches!

Nasty @$$

One word: karma

Ok, this is a pet peeve of mine, but I hate it when someone says they don't like McDonalds because of the movie "Supersize Me." He ate McD's for breakfast, lunch & dinner for 30 days, of course he was going to get sick. We watched it in my first semester of college English and the whole class came to the consensus that it was not an "eyeopening experience" like it seemed Spurlock intended it to be.

I love Krispy Kreme doughnuts. So light . . . Dunkin Donuts are like hockey pucks.

I picked up a Happy Meal for my son - they forgot the toy. That makes it a Sad Meal.:(

I've never had an issue with Chic-Fil-A or Sonic. They have the best service, IMO. I am rarely satisfied at KFC and Burger King. If I come into some money, I'm buying Sonic and Chic-fil-A franchises.

christiangirl 11-02-2008 11:52 PM

Okay, I don't discriminate AT ALL, but this is something I can't handle. I went to McDonald's in DC and NO ONE spoke English. If it wasn't a menu item, they didn't know it. I was trying to ask if the "light" lemonade was sugar-free because my dad's diabetic and no one had a clue what I was asking, including the manager. I'm all for retaining your own culture, but please speak the language of the majority if you're going to work with the majority!

I don't know if it counts as fast food, but I've had terrible service at Johnny Rockets. I've tried picking up from there a few times, and something was always messed up. The last time, I got food poisoning. Thus, I haven't been there since.

True, but that stuff is so bad for you, regardless of the movie.

I got food poisoning my first time at Waffle House and never went back. People in the south act like it's the greatest thing ever, but I flat out refuse to fight that demon again.

cheerfulgreek 11-03-2008 01:24 AM

Speaking of the Waffle House, I only ate there once, but I thought it was like any other breakfast place. I thought they served most breakfast foods. I asked for pancakes but they didn't serve pancakes. I was surprised because there are pancake places that serve waffles.

I thought the food was good though.
