Favorite 'fast-food'?

[Kyriakos]

As in junk-food and other less polite eponyms

I have a few of them i used to eat in the past, first i will post some from my time in London:

-KFC

-Doner (kebab)

Fish and chips was good too, although i only ever ate that when in the airport, waiting to board the flight back to Greece. Not really a junk-food though i guess.

The only local junk-food i like is (of course) the infamous Gyros

As healthy as it looks (sadly it's been a couple of years since i last ate one of those, will buy one soon enough though...)

Probably a dog's eye with dead horse (pie with sauce) or a good hot dog. While this place is probably a little overrated, it's still right up there with the best place in Sydney to offer both.

In N Out is the only correct answer:

 

[rugbyLEAGUEfan]

Oh man, I googled that In n Out place and it looks amazing. So I was heart broken to see that I was six months too late for this.

taco bell
hankook taqueria (atlanta korean taco shop)
garbanzo (mediterranean; scattered throughout some colorado/maryland/texas/california apparently)
zunzi's (in savannah, ga; though I only had it once, seemed amazing all around menu; sandwich place); though what I had apparently isn't listed on the menu right now so I dunno (had like a curried chicken sandwich)

i don't really like burgers.

 

[Kyriakos]

I did prefer KFC to burgers too. When i did have to buy a burger (nearly out of money) i just went to the burger king in the London area i was in, since they had a special deal each week for some bits of the menu.

I tried McDonalds once. It was crap :/

I guess the more brand-based lucrative Greek fast food here is from these sorts of places:

Obviously far cleaner than a Gyros, but still junk-food.

Kind of a Greek "Burger king" chain i guess.

Burger King and McDonalds are both godawful. Don't waste your money. If you're going to get a fast food burger, get it at In N Out or 5 Guys.

^ 5 Guys is way more expensive than McDonalds.

I used to love Taco Bell but now I work there and I'm getting sick of it(not to mention the food is terrible for you).

There's no Doner in America, but I absolutely love that stuff so I'll say that, even though I might never eat it again.

 

[Virote_Considon]

Pork shish kebab.

In fact, yesterday I had bacon shish kebab. It was the fastfood of the Gods!

I loved Doner too It seems to be equally (potentially) unhealthy as Gyros though. Different meat (i think), cut in a different way. The actual meat in the Gyros is many small bits, whereas a Doner seems to be a few continuous thin pieces.

 

[civver_764]

I dunno man it's got lots of veggies on it haha.

+1

Most of the time gyros has no vegetables at all. Why pretend? (well there is the token small piece of tomato i guess)

 

[bhsup]

Man, my answer to this can change like the seasons. Right now I'd have to say Sonic Drive-In.

 

[Kyriakos]

Good 1-person meal:

 

[Kennigit]

oh Potbelly is also a good sandwich chain, they have plenty of locations in US

 

[Smellincoffee]

I avoid fast food,but in my obese days I enjoyed Arby's and Wendy's the most. Burger King had excellent-tasting burgers, but in my town they're alllllll the way across town so I never go there. And when I'm in other cities, I don't go there because we have one at home.

 

[Farm Boy]

Probably Culver's.

I can't drive across the country to get to the nearest location.

And sometimes, a man has to have 50 Chicken McNuggets with BBQ sauce.

I really dig Wendy's overall. Their burgers are better than McDonald's and on part (or slightly better than) with Burger King's. Their French fries aren't as good as McDonald's but they're head and shoulders better than the crappy fries BK sells.


Ooooh I forgot Steak and Shake. Love that place.

 

[GoodSarmatian]

-Doner (kebab)

Yes please. There's two good Kebab places within walking distance of my house. I could go for one with cheese right now actually, but what passes for my discipline won't let me. It's over 3 megajoules and I haven't worked out in over a week.

Not gonna lie, I'm a McDonald's fan. Something about their fries makes them remarkably addictive. Their entrees aren't great or terrible, but they're my favorite of the basic three (McDonald's, Burger King, and Wendy's). Also, McRibs:

I also like KFC pretty all right, but they're overpriced if you only buy for one fat person. Still, we don't have Popeye's in this area, so they're really my only option if I want fried chicken on the bone fast without driving downtown. If I just want a sandwich or some chicken strips or whatever, I'd much prefer Chick-Fil-A.

Taco Bell is terrible and I don't get the appeal. Even Mountain Dew Baja Blast is pretty overrated.

I eat way too much fast food.
