What fast food places don't suck?
JB got me thinking. Are there any good places left?
The last time I went in a McDonalds. I had an anxiety attack. Behold, a fast moving screen of options I couldn't even read fast enough. Make a choice. Spend as much $$$ as a real restaurant. Where's the ketchup? It's been hidden. This was not my childhood experience. I never really even liked McDonalds. As a kid, it was Hardees. They had hot dogs. The few Hardees that exist look like 3rd world countries. I wouldn't even use the bathrooms, lets alone eat the food. Subway. I loved em', but getting old, and expensive. Give me faith you all!!!! What's out there?!? ![]()

Wendy’s chili and a baked potato.
The chicken places are good too.

I rarely eat fast food but when required KFC is an acceptable option.

I take it the Aussie KFC is better than the American version?

Me being a bachelor sort of a guy I think all food is great. I love McDonalds. We have what's called a Grand Angus burger. Flame grilled Angus beef, egg, lettuce tomato... And KFC, I'm sure I must be Samoan.

KFC is the best of the large franchises but it's not great. I'd describe it as acceptable.

lol!
In our town, Raising Canes is an Icon. I've never been there, but, daily, the line into the place is so long a traffic cop needs to direct cars so there isn't an accident. I'd try it if it wasn't risking life and limb ![]()

El Polly Local is pretty good and healthy, my wife and I like it but not the kids. Of course there's In and Out. I am Ok with it and if they ever close all their doors, I wouldn't miss them. Then there's Panda Express. Wife loves Chick-fil-a. I hate their food. Dry like eating cardboard. I don't see the attraction.
Do Corner Bakery or Panera Bread count as fast foods? I like 'em both. |

They all suck, just seems to vary by how much. And even that varies based on which location of the chain you are going to. EG the small town rural McDonalds is MUCH better than the ones "in the big city" nearby.
If I had to make a bet in a strange place, I'd find a Wendys and hope to catch 'em at a busy time when they are crankin out fresh hot food.

Seems like the west coast has some good mexican options I've never heard of on the East side.
