fast food places
 
What is the best/worst fast food place? Your fave fast food? What do you hate/love about fast food places?


I went to Wendy's today and they upsized my order without me saying I wanted it.

I ordered a #7 chicken sandwich meal and the drive thru guy goes "OK I am gonna biggy size that for you". I hate that stuff.

I love McDonald's salads and sundaes yummy.

I used to work at RadioShack -- "assuming the sale" has long been a closing technique in the commissioned selling universe. As "biggie" sizing a meal is almost pure profit for Wendy's, it is not really surprising to me that they are doing this.

I can proudly say I haven't eaten fast food since I began college....August 26th, 1998. :D It's just too greasy and loaded with stuff I don't want to put into my body.

I wish I had your discipline Jadey.

I don't have a favorite, but my least favorite is McDonald's. I worked at one when I was high school, and the stories I could tell you could make you not want to eat there either. So I won't tell them ;)

Subway because I can eat reasonably healthy vegetarian food and it's cheap as all hell.

Carl's Jr (thank God they have one in Texas!) - cause their burgers are excellent!

Booger King - cause I can have it my way and not wait forever and a day for it.

SuckDonalds? Only when I absolutely have to.

i read this as i was finishing my veggie sandwich from subway. it just kills me that they charge $4.50 for a foot long piece of bread with some cheap veggies on it. it should be $2.50 max.

LOL! When I go there and get a 6 inch veggie it's less than $3. To me, that's a cheap lunch.

Uhhh....I always get so sick when I eat there!

I'm a fan of Chick Fil A and KFC. For some odd reason the only day I ever strongly crave Chick Fil A is on Sundays (they're closed Sundays).

Ditto.

I'm not a fan of Chick Fil-A. At all.

My favorite fast food restaurant is In-N-Out (in Cali and I think Nevada). Their fries are made on-site (they don't come in a bag!), their beef is local, and their milkshakes are just ice cream and milk--none of that powdered isht. I might need to take a Cali run sometime this summer just to get my In-N-Out on!

OK, the original Nathan's, in Coney Island, is a mecca for fast food. The hot dogs are among the best, and their french fries are amazing. They also have fried seafood, which is a perfect fast food for the ocean, and much more.

Chick-fil-A has amazing chicken sandwiches. I'm convinced that they use crack cocaine as an ingredient to keep people coming back. They're that addictive. They also have great waffle fries.

Roll-n-Roaster is a Brooklyn based purveyor of roast beef sandwiches. After 33 years, they finally opened their second location in Manhattan.

Sassy's Sliders is a one location fast food restaurant, on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, that serves small square hamburgers called sliders. You're probably thinking "White Castle." This difference is Sassy's sliders are really, really good. Much better that White Castle.

fast food is so gross. several months ago, i ate a crossant from Burger King. by the time i got to the end of the sandwich, i notice a strong cleanser taste. i wanted to puke. turner me completely off to fast food. the only thing that i will eat is hotcakes and sausage biscuit from McDonalds. other than that, forget it.

i CANNOT STAND when the kitchen in the restaurant is open and you can see the workers make the food with no gloves. when it is open, at least they cannot hide anything. but still put on some gloves!
