Taco Bell is the only place you can reliably get extremely cheap, semi-healthy vegetarian food. I've been eating there since I was a kid and I will always love it. (I have no idea how the meat options taste, but the vegetarian options are happy comfort food for me now.)
Since I have to get burgers without meat, I usually just skip those places all together.

...and, of course, being that this IS the Escapist, we have to give it to the one which shres the same name as a once beloved video game character. (Assuming he still has fans after Sonic 2006. I myself am still a fan, but only because of SatAM.)doublenix said:
Of course, if you go to Jack-In-The-Box, Dairy Queen, and Burger King in one day, you're just two stores away from a Fast Food Royal Flush.
CAPTCHA: finger lickin good
Looks like the Captcha is a KFC fan and wants to get in on the vote.
Just to throw down some clarification here, anything that's not cooked until you order it is not "fast" food. As much as I love em, Jack, Carls, In-and-Out and all the other "good" chains are not real fast food. If the food you are served during a lunch rush was raw when you stepped up to the counter, it's not fast food.
Taco Bell, McDonalds, and BK qualify because they are, at best, assembled when you order. The fry shops (KFC, Church's, Popeye's, Long John Silvers)? Mostly pre-cooked, so sure.
Arby's is a bit of a toss up because I'm not sure if "sliced when you order" counts.
Subway doesn't do any cooking (reheating and toasting don't count), but if Subway's allowed, then you have to let in all the other cafeteria style (slide tray in front of window and point) places. Besides...there's no drive-thru at a Subway.
Personally? I like the regional chains. White Castle, Whataburger, Sonic, Dairy Queen, Checkers/Rallys, etc.

Heh, except for McDonalds, we don't have any large fast food chains here (although you can get fast food on every corner these days). I did visit Burger King when I was in Spain and in my opinion Whopper eats anything McDonalds can offer.
I stil prefer one of these babies:

I'm surprised this didn't get brought up. "All restaurants are now Taco Bell."tehbeard said:
With the 3 options given, I go with McDonald's. I don't like that Burger King slathers all their stuff with mayo, and Taco Bell just isn't filling.
I had Pizza Hut pretty often as a kid, so I grew to like it. About 3 weeks ago I had a serious craving for Pizza Hut for lunch, but I found out the nearest one that offers eat-in is more then 30 miles away, which probably meant at least 45 minutes each way of driving. Not really feasible for a lunch break.
Seriously, nobody has anything on the original In-N-Out. Pioneer of the drive-through (1948), (drive through!= fast food until the 1970's), amazing quality, and really addictive. Macdonalds stole every idea they ever had. Big mac is a bad version of the Bob's Big Boy. Southern style chicken sandwich is chickfil-a. They are actually a real estate company anyway, leasing the land the macdonalds are built on to their franchisees.Fayathon said:
Weinerschniztel is my favorite though.
Also Taco Bell is the ONLY restaurant.
CALIFORNYUH FUCK YEAH!Fayathon said:
..Although recently, Five Guy is ranked 1st in national survey of burger chains.
Funny because I have never heard of them.
Why no love for KFC, the chicken is delicious, also the Colonel is a good mascot compared to the other three, look at that face, that is very welcoming
Out of the ones you guys argued I'll go with Taco Bell simply because I enjoy the Cruch Wrap Supreme.
My favorite has to be Wendy's. Just their normal burgers are great but the best thing they have IMO is the Spicy Chicken Burger.
I would go with 5 Guys over Wendy's but their food seems to be really hit or miss for me. Sometimes it's amazing, other times it's shit. Their fires are consistently the best though.

They are introducing Taco Bell over here now, there is one in Lakeside and a few in London, never had one though. They used to have a Wendy's in London as well but that is long gone.Scarim Coral said:
OT: I would probably go with Burger King, McDonald's always makes me feel sick for some reason, KFC is awesome too.
