Anyone ever visited 2 or more different places to get the right combo? Wendy’s Fries, then off to Subway for the main course, then to BK for chicken strips, etc… I always imagine what the person at drive-thru #2 onward think when they see the various bags from competing establishments, but then i realize that they probably don’t give a rats ass… ---

I’m a vegetarian so my choices are limited when it comes to fast food…but In-n-Out still rules! They make the ‘grilled cheese’ which is just an In-n-Out burger (with all the sauce and stuff) without the meat patty and with extra cheese grilled into it. It’s so good…Their fries are good too. ---

McDonald’s french fries are definitely my favorite fast food item. I also like their McRib (or is it a McSoy?). However, I like nothing else that McDonald’s serves. And I don’t like anyone else’s french fries either. What a predicament! ---

Oh yeah, the Subway veggie sub works for me too (I love . Also, ITR Champion, the fine folks over at Taco Bell will replace any meat in their food with beans. All the vegans I know eat bean stuff from Taco Bell all the time… ---

Jack in the Box is the 24 hour king of fast food. But coming from the midwest originally, I miss the Hot&Now double olive burger with cheese. I don’t thing they even exist any more…_sniff_ ---

If you can find a Chinese restauant with a buffet, does that count as “fast food”? Takes just a minute to have a plate of food in front of you and get back on a 1/2 hour lunch break. Then I vote for wraps, like mu shu pork. A little plum sauce, and there is _so much flavor!_ ---

McDonalds fries for me. Also, the Philly Cheese Steak sandwhich from Jack in the Box is actually pretty darn good. ---

Well, some interesting info here. Finally I’ve learned what poutine is; worth the effort just for that. If we get up to 50 posts or so, I’ll do a statistical recap and see where we stand. Looks so far as though burgers in all their variety are still the most-preferred poison for respondents, with Wendy’s, Jack in the Box and BK the front-runners. Interestingly, while many have expressed a preference for chicken, except for KFC they don’t seem to like it from places that actually _specialize_ in chicken. Not sure what that means. Also I’ve never seen anyone say much good about Long John Silver’s and so far, in this thread no one’s mentioned it at all. Gotta wonder why they’re on every street corner here in Houston. ---

I, too, am a Wendy’s lover… their chicken sandwiches are to die for. I also LOVE McDonalds fish sandwiches. ---

I like Jack in the Box. . .they had something on their .99 menu a while back called “Jack’s Western Cheeseburger,” basically a cheeseburger (two kinds of cheese) with BBQ sauce and mayo, and lots of onions (not the diced kind, but real onion pieces). It was great, but they took it off the .99 menu and I haven’t seen it since ☹ I also enjoy KFC’s Honey BBQ Wings. . .again, sadly, a limited-time offering (although it does seem to come back every year or so). ---

Isn’t asking “What’s your favorite fast food?” a little like asking “What’s the most beautiful freeway?”? ---

Wendy’s. It’s the reigning champion of fast food with most our school. The greatest part is that, in our town anyway, if you go to Burger King or Mcdonalds, your order gets tapped into a computer. At our Wendy, it gets yelled in Spanish over and over.
