Arby's buys Wendy's

[tld221]

disclaimer: though ive ranked these places, i really do eat them all without judgement. and quite happily, as any fattie would.

First Tier
Quiznos (black angus steak yummmmmmmmm)
Chipotle (i hear it was better when it first started and has declined, but still heart it)
Burger King (actually i'd put them as 2nd tier, but i have this childhood nostalgia attached to BK and will eat a Whopper over a Big Mac anyday. and come on! onion rings!)
Johnny Rockets (im a sucker for themed restaurants)
Chik-Fil-A (its allllllll good, even the salad, except the lemonade, its a little too tart for me)
Papa John's (Domino's has small pies and Pizza Hut doesnt deliver around here)
Wendys (they dont make vanilla Frosties)
Au Bon Pan (i dont know if they count as fast food, but their soups are good! and the peach iced tea!)

Second Tier
McDonalds (you know, i couldnt work the nerve to call them first-tier)
Dominos
Subway
Golden Krust (theyre popping up outside of NY - anyone eat from there? however if there's an actual Jamaican restaurant in the area, forget it)
KFC (they got the NERVE to sell apple pies!)
Popeyes (i like their chicken skin lol and the biscuits with the apple jam!)
Pizza Hut (again, if they delievered, theyd be tops)

Third Tier
Checkers (mustard on burgers? no WAY)
Taco Bell (i would not fucc with TB after-hours)
White Castle (you know why... but again, wouldnt fucc with WC after hours, its shady)
Blimpie (never cared for it)
Roy Rogers (reminds me of too many long car rides on the turnpike and on a larger scale, reminds me that people are really DIFFERENT outside of NY)

Quoting this because this is the first and only time I've ever seen Roy Rogers less than tops! Where is one, any how? I know of two in Hagerstown & another small town in MD, but that's it.

She is talking about a turnpike Roy Rogers.

Turnpike restaurants are not the same as regular restaurants. They know they can feed you food from the Nixon administration & you won't care because you're a captive audience and starving.

McDonald's for regular fries, Popeye's for the Cajun batter fries.

I was watching Super Size Me in a class recently. Never seen it all the way through.

Speaking of fries. I liked when he put the big mac and fries in a jar along with a burger and an order of fries from a local restaurant. After a month the big mac and the fries looked the exact same sitting in the jar. The local cooked food was unrecognizable from decay and mold. After 8 weeks the McD's fries still looked the exact same, Big Mac was just starting to show mold.

Unreal.

I had some Green Chicken Chilli and a turkey ranch and swiss sub on whole wheat from Quizno's for dinner. It was fantabulous.

^That combo is the bee's knees.

I've never understood the attraction of Wendy's. I think their food is pretty awful. I'd rather eat at Hardee's -- and I agree with the folks who put Hardee's at the bottom of the barrell, although their double cheeseburger is really good.

I don't know that I could put much in tiers. I don't like subs or sandwiches, so I don't really care for Subway, Quiznos, Jersey Mikes and the like.

Of the burger Places, 5 Guys is good, but expensive comparitively speaking. McDonalds is at least "safe" in terms of knowing what you'll get.

Chik-Fil-A is supposedly a little healthier than some other places (and at least their kids meals don't have toys that will do nothinhg but gather dust after 4 hours), but the food is all pretty bland, and I hate their fries.

My first tier would probably be:

Bojangles
Moe's
Chipotle
(In KSig RC's words) The Local Flame-Grilled place
And if they were still around, the old Roy Rogers -- boy do I miss the Double R-Bar Burger.

After that, I don't get too excited about any of it.

First tier:
Chipotle
Au Bon Pain (does this count as fast food? mmm clam chowder...)

Burger King
KFC
Subway

Third tier:
McDonald's

Golden Krust (PATHETIC imitation Jamaican anything-their coco bread is INEXCUSABLE)
all other chain fast food -except those we don't have locally b/c I haven't eat it.

[DSTCHAOS]

Mmmmm...a Taco Bell bean burrito or fresco style crunchy taco would be great right now!

If I was feeling really naughty I'd eat an Arby's beef and cheddar and cheese fries. Hmmmm...

*back to eating my bowl of cereal and apple*

=[ I love Wendy's... They're the only fast food place that makes a really good spicy chicken sandwich =[

That's my favorite menu item there, hands down.

My husband figured out I was pregnant with my first child even before I told him because I suddenly started craving Taco Bell burrito supremes with extra sour cream - and I couldn't stand Taco Bell before that.

McDonald's fries were good when they were cooked in beef tallow. Now they are awful.

Bellaire Broiler Burger near Houston is sooooooo gooooood. In labor for my third child the only "push present" I wanted was a tasty Cheeseburger from BBB. And their onion rings!!!!
