This will be fun. I eat way too much fast food, but live in a fairly rural area.

1. Subway - Really dislike Subway, prefer local sub shop alternatives. But gotta go with the BLT with spinach and carrot
2. Dunkin' Donuts None within 250 miles (Amazing, right?)
3. Pizza Hut Cheese crust with mushroom, onion, and ham or sausage. And sometimes hotwings
4. McDonald's If I go there, it's definitely $1 menu. Usually a mcdouble, a side salad, and a parfait. 3 buck yo!
5. Sonic None within 150 miles. I like their chili cheese fries though
6. KFC Extra crispy, coleslaw and potatoes.
7. Dominos mushroom, onion, and ham or sausage. We rely on pizza too much for our menu
8. Arby's None within 80 miles... but damn I like some faux roast beef now and then. The only decent RB place in town is called Beefaroo.
9. Baskin-Robbins Again, none within 250 miles
10. Taco Bell A couple soft tacos with hot sauce. I only go here when I'm broke and hungry.

When I'm at home I rarely eat fast food, but when I'm in another country I love it. I've been in South Korea for the past six weeks and I've been loving dominos, McDonalds, Quiznos, and Taco Bell. Sometime that Asian crap doesn't cut it.

I eat way to much fast food. I'm on the road all the time for work, so it's way too easy to pull into a drive-thru for lunch.

Taco Bell: Two Cheesy Gordita Crunches, one taco supreme
McDonalds: 10pc Nuggets, honey for dipping and medium fries
Lion's Choice: Two roast beef sandwiches w/cheddar, small fries
Jack in the Box: Mini sirloin burgers, medium fries ... addicted to this shit
Chick-fil-a: For breakfast, chicken, egg & cheese on multi-grain bagel or for lunch, two chicken sandwiches w/ extra pickles
Wendy's: Single w/ bacon, small fries

I feel kinda disgusted with myself after typing that out.

1. Subway - it was the only option besides the college cafeteria this summer at the rock camp i directed, and that caf was wretched. That week i had 6 inch meatball on wheat with jalapenos, spicy italian on that parmesan oregano bread, sweet onion chicken teriyaki... I've got a subway near work, sometimes the boss and I will split a 5 dollar foot long so it's whatever he orders, hold the pickles.

2. Dunkin' Donuts - i worked in one. I hate donuts. But there was one in the El station when i worked the same camp in chicago, and i'd grab a coffee when I didn't have time to go back to the dorm to make another pot. They have o.k. coffee, but it needs cream and sugar, and I really prefer it black.

3. Pizza Hut - i like to make pizza at home from scratch, or throw in a HCF $2.50 deal from the grocery store. Deena likes Papa Johns, which i personally think is shit, i'd rather have Pizza Hut. But really, i'd rather just make everything.

4. McDonald's - Filet O Fish. Spicy McChicken. Large Coke no ice (coke tastes different at MacnSmack), or Sweet Tea. I haven't eaten there in months

5. Sonic - There's one down the street, but i've never eaten there. I've seen my kids eat it, and it looks and smells gross.

6. KFC - I tried the double down a few months ago. I just don't have the time to eat it, and then spend a half hour getting the grease off of my hands before I go on with my life.

7. Dominos - no

8. Arby's - the market fresh sandwiches are o.k.
9. Baskin-Robbins - they have food? if not, why are they on this list and Dairy Queen isn't?
10. Taco Bell - whatever their latest 99 cent creation is. Again, i haven't eaten at any of these in months, but mostly because i don't get a lunch break every other day, and then i just go home and make dinner. On the days I do get a lunch, i just make a pb&j or heat up some leftovers.

That list sucks.
Maybe once every month or two we'll hit Chipotle for lunch. Carnitas Fajita with hot salsa, sour cream, cheese, no lettuce.
Or we'll get a Spicy Chicken from Wendy's, but it's alot of pb&j. Taco Cabana and Whataburger are not as good as texans make them out to be, although Whataburger's Honey Butter Chicken Biscuit on the breakfast menu is very good. I'm surprised that Wendy's isn't on that list.

Speaking of the itis, I'm still recovering from the Scoe's #1 that I ate over 22 hours ago.

I eat pretty much garbage all the time, but I guess I don't get to a lot of chains, or at least not on that list. There's a Carl's Jr. down the street and even though I like the food, I hate the place's politics/ad campaigns/existence enough to steer clear most of the time. I go out of my way to avoid chain pizza places even out in the land of shitty pizzas. Either we go to one of the local places or make our own.

1. Subway - Ew
2. Dunkin' Donuts - None that I know of around here.
3. Pizza Hut - Ew.
4. McDonald's - Butt sauce.
5. Sonic - None that I know of around here. There's one in Orange County, but the last time I went I vowed to never return.
6. KFC - Ew.
7. Dominos - Ew.
8. Arby's - Ew.
9. Baskin-Robbins - None that I know of around here.
10. Taco Bell - Whatever I'm hung over enough to jam down my food hole.


Fatburger - medium meal
In n Out - cheeseburger, extra onions. Fries well done.
Five Guys - small burger with jalapenos, fried onions.
Chipotle - chicken hard taco
Taco King - almost anything except tamales.
Kogi - short rib tacos

I've never eaten at Chipotle and have only had Qdoba once. Usually the only burrito chain I go to around here is Boloco because they have weird combos of burritos. I'll usually get the Bangkok Thai.

I haven't had In-N-Out in probably 15 years. Whataburger was good I guess but I only ever ate there when I was drunk. Five Guys is good but they give you a lot of fucking food. Last time I went I got a little cheeseburger and fries and still couldn't finish all the fries. I fucked up the first few times and got the regular one and felt like I was going to explode. This place is better than either of them though.

I prefer the Buffalo sauce but yes.

I've only eaten fast food three times this year though (all three times CFA and one of those was explicitly to try the Spicy Chicken sandwich) so I'm no authority. Ten years ago I could have given you a break down on all these places and at least a dozen more.

5. Sonic - don't have one

10. Taco Bell - it was the chicken grilled-stuffed burrito but food poisoning has kept my from a T-Bell for over a year now

It's right up the street from my place. Around the corner from Nuevo Laredo. It's their brick and mortar restaurant but they have a truck they sell out of as well.

The "taco truck" craze has really started to take off here finally.

Missed this Drink the first time. It's been parked in the empty lot at the corner of Howell Mill and DeFoors Ave. Across from the Waffle House. Lot of auto mechanic places for walk ups and tons of traffic at lunch.

Reason I came here to post was because I actually had Hankook for lunch for the first time yesterday.

It was crazy good. Ordered their Korean BBQ tacos ($2.25 each). 1 beef, 1 chicken, 1 pork with fresh lime squeezed on each. The beef was easily my favorite. Will def be going back.

It's definitely a lunch spot. Zero ambiance and no booze. Just tacos, burritos, snacks, tea, water, or fountain drinks. Keep it simple stupid I guess.

Yeah, originally they weren't even open for dinner.

Beef, shrimp, and chicken tacos are my favorites. If you go in there with a serious appetite, try ordering the nachos sometime. They top them with the beef and a bunch of other stuff, and they're awesome. Prepare to feel fat afterwards, though.
