well subway... cuz its healthy... Subway's not as healthy as most people think it is. Sure, that guy Jared went from 425 pounds to 190 on the "Subway diet". But Jared was on an extremely strict diet of two Subway sandwiches per day: a 6-inch turkey sub, baked Lays potato chips with a diet soda for lunch — and a foot-long veggie sub for dinner. Jared ate nothing else besides that. No mayo, oil, or cheese were on those two sandwiches either. The Meatball subs and the Philly Cheesesteaks and all that stuff, is just as bad as a Big Mac, though. In fact, much more than half of Subway's stuff is just regular garbage fast food. Blood lays the smackdown on Subway. ;D I still say Burger King is the best off of that list, though. |

Burger King. They have some good stuff. But I kind of like KFC better for their chicken and potato wedges. ^^

One thing I especially love about Burger King is the $1 Western Cheeseburger... or was that Rodeo Cheeseburger? Whatever, some cheeseburger with onion rings, cheese, and barbecue sauce. I buy four of those things at a time. Screw combo meals, because nobody finishes their fries anyway, and it's not too hard to provide your own drink. Mmmmm... copious amounts of Value Menu items.
And I've grown fond of the Colonel's Corn Syrup that happens to be honey flavored (honey is the third listed ingredient, so I gave it a more suitable name). I could eat anything with it, especially potato wedges. Mmmm... potato wedges and corn syrup. Don't knock it 'til you try it!
And one thing about McDonald's is that whenever I visit Fifth's house for the weekend, it's a bit of a family custom for them to eat there on a Sunday morning for breakfast. One day, I just got Egg McBagelbaconandcheese or whatever with large orange juice and a hash brown, and wanting to put ketchup on my hash brown, I accidently mistook a package of strawberry jam. I thought it was the best accident ever, and now I always eat my hash browns with strawberry jam!
Yeah, I'm so good... I just traded some intelligence and functional brain cells for some fine dining tips.

McDonalds is awesome (and no, I'm not fat). I love their hamburgers, they are great. I also enjoy Jack-In-The-Box, but the nearest one is pretty far away, maybe an hour and 1/2 or so. BK is cool too, I kinda like their food (love the chicken tenders!!!). But overall, my vote goes to McDonalds, I eat there the most out of any fast food place I can think of.

Wendy's for liiiife!
I try to avoid fast food generally, because I know how unhealthy it is on a regular basis -- I just do faovr Wendy's out of the lot when it's the most convenient option.

Secret menu? Uh, no. There's actually only a few things on In N' Out's menu. Hamburger, cheesburger, Double Double, Fries, and three different types of shakes. And the one two three combo meals. Their menu really hasn't changed at all, ever. Unless you count when they put backlighting in it a long-ass time ago.

*cough* en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_n_out#The_.22Secret.22_menu *cough* Anyway, I probably eat at fast food places more than is reasonable; my favorite of 'em would have to be KFC. I could probably get away with saying "the usual" at my local KFC... Edit: Aw, I got beaten to it. With the same link! |

Oh, that, hahah. I just never heard it being called a "Secret menu" before. Right, gotcha. Really though, everything on the "Secret menu" is made of the same stuff the normal menu has.

almost all americans who eat mcdonald are fat. some eats each day (ew) but i dont even want to eat there a single time anymore... First off, to comment on that subject; eating where you please has nothing to do with being overweight. Unless you find yourself simply listening to the media all the time; this is pure opinion of anyone who sees the news and listens to "Super Size Me". These type of formats are used to make you stand out against the McDonalds and fast-food corportations; they are there to teach America how to keep themselves fit and away from bad choices. Yet eating there does not make you fat, it's not that you consume one burger and automatically become something "huge and out of proportion". It depends on how you moderate what you intake, and it's that way for anywhere; not just a certain place to begin with. You can easily gain weight by your own home devices, if you eat more than three times a day. The reason anyone would gain weight for going out to eat, is many a simple reason. When you order food from a "Fast-Food" chain, you should only do it once or twice a day; don't make it an everyday thing either. For, it has been recorded that no one really makes plans to go out to eat at a Fast-Food resteraunt. It just sort of occurs by natural impulse to consume an easily made meal; the only arrangements are really made for large and expensive resteraunts. We get this perception that McDonalds gives us the negative materials to eat, because it's such a large corportation. It's not hard to see that we as a society are hypocrites in our remarks; we always stand against whats large. Without them though, we would get nowhere and have nothing. For example, think of Wal-Mart; so many people comment that they don't give health benefits to their employees; so they are automatically a horrible place to go. Yet, we continue to go back everyday and buy the items to help us get around. Obviouslly, the media likes to give the "negative" reaction on things. It's known that we as human beings can recall the negative more than we can the positive; thus a reason why most of our news is filled with bad information more than with the positive. People don't care about the good these days, they want to hear the raunchy details. This doesn't stop them from doing it though, Wal-Mart still survives and so does McDonalds. Eating at McDonalds or any fast food area can not make you automatically "large"; don't listen to everything you hear and think you see. In fact, there is a world record by a man whom eats a Big Mac everyday for Dinner; he's fit, lean, and has no fat on any part of his body. So far he has consumed more than 21,000 diffrent types of Big Macs from all over the world nearly. He's a champion in his field, and he is still very healthy and ready for things. He moderates his intake of food, he doesn't eat a Big Mac every single hour of the day. So don't think that just because of the place you eat, you're going to gain weight. That's not how it works, the true person to blame is yourself. It's not the company, it's not their employeers, and it's not pressure; it's the fact of not having self control. So anyone who eats there is not, "Fat" thats a lie; if they are, they made themselves that way. Also, an apology that some of the Resteraunts weren't put on the list. That's a very big figment of "Others" hey though, at least you guys did share your opinion on the matter. Seems that in conclusion a lot of our food chains are diffrent all around where we live. Like, some of you might not have Bob Evans, others might; it really just focuses on their home location and how far they choose to spread. Yet, this stereotype of gaining weight from a fast food chain can be possible at times, only if you continue to go back. Sure you have those who will be like, "Well they put addictives in food"; but that doesn't imply anything. We have the natural ability to not continually visit the place over and over. It's more about self-control then it is about what they serve you. Sure it's full of good ol' greasy lovin'; that's what makes it awesome to eat. It's a rarity, and it's easy to gain. That doesn't mean you're going to gain weight from it after visiting a few times. We grow to love foods from the way we are bred, born, and raised in ways. Studies show that you learn your eating abilities from the beginnging of your birth. Focusing on whats around you, and wanting it more and more; usually it's sweets. It can be organics as well; so the truth of us getting fat and falling into McDonalds isn't all so realistic. Yes, we are gaining more weight because we keep losing control of our habits. We make life more stressful then it should be, and therefore we consume to forget; and we eat because it makes us happy. Yet you can still go to McDonalds and love their hamburgers; you can go to Wendys and eat theirs as well. Graedius said it best, "I know how unhealthy it is on a regular basis", and he is right. However, loving McDonalds and Wendys doesn't make you fat. You can eat there as you please, it's just dependent on how much and when. |

McDonalds, badah bah da da I'm lovin' it.
Honestly, I went to Burger King today. My first time- my dad has a "thing" against Burger King, and I see why. Ew.
McDonalds is fattening, greasy, and just as gross as any other place. But it tastes better :3

It's not an entirely different thing though, is what I'm saying. Still the same ingredients, just mixed and cooked differently. Not an entirely new menu item, like say, the Soughdough Jack is to the regular old Jack-in-the-box hamburger. |
