Egg McMuffin. It’s the only fast food I eat from a fast food joint on a regular basis. I wonder if McDs is open today :dubious:

Burrito Supremes from Taco Bell. Actually, almost everything from Taco Bell.

Once or twice a year I crave a Big Mac.

Fish sandwich or breakfast burrito from McDonalds.

That said, I rarely eat fast food and hope to cut back even more in the future.

McDonald’s fries. Sometimes when I have a migraine and am very nauseated, I need to have something very salty. Often a small order of McFries actually serves for medicinal purpose. There’s nothing else I can even consider keeping down, and it helps me **TMI** retain my medication.

I love a Whopper. I also love Burger King’s fries, though I’m probably the only one who does 🙂

I also like Mickey D’s breakfast. I love their hash brown. I used to eat the Sausage Egg Cheese McGriddles a lot. I’ve started watching my cholesterols, however, and now I just occasionally eat an Egg McMuffin, which is decent, but not quite as good.

Is that what you kids are calling a hangover these days? 🙂

Yes, I do crave McD’s fries from time to time. Medicinal. Yeah, that’s the ticket!

The [Bonus Jack](http://www.jackinthebox.com/menu/product.php?prod_id=bonus_jack&cat_id=1). It’s back!

McD’s fries, of course.

Once a year or so I’ll get the overpowering urge to just gorge on Del Taco’s $.49 tacos.

McDonald’s Sausage McGriddle. Sausage, egg and cheese in between 2 Hot Cakes.

Wendy’s fries (haven’t had the new ones yet)

We don’t have Jack in the Box in Michigan(uh, at least not commonly or that I’ve seen).

I want one having read this thread.

Hardee’s (aka Carl’s Jr.) Thickburger - I drive 28 miles out of my way to get one occassionally. Their fries are pretty good too.

White Castle burgers. Yes, I realize they barely qualify as food. That doesn’t mean I can’t love 'em.

Wendy’s chili.

Nathan’s hot dogs.

Burger King Double Cheeseburger. If it’s too big for you, just take half home.

Yeah, I love that one too, but it makes my teeth feel funny after I eat it. As a matter of fact, I never found anything on the McD’s breakfast menu that I didn’t like. I only go there a couple of times a year, and am never disappointed with my choice.

I like Burger King fries, KFC chicken, and Wendy’s (?) Double Down.

Of course, I also like fitting into my pants, so those treats are rare.

Sometimes I have a craving which can only be quelched by 2 Sausage McMuffins with Egg (I don’t like the ham stuff on the regular McMuffin). I always regret it later.

Others: I agree with the Whopper Jr. Good size, cheap, no mustard please.

Chicken Teriyaki sub at Subway. I don’t get the sweet onion sauce. It’s not great teriyaki, but it’s damned good with lettuce, cuces, and green peppers.

Agree. This is the only fast food item I will actually go out of my way to acquire.

I can’t stand any fast food burger I’ve tried, and I’ve tried the lauded ones. They’re just nasty.

But I do love me a good fried chicken sandwich. Even McDonald’s dollar-menu one is pretty good if it’s fresh (last one I had was sitting under a heat lamp for a couple of months, cured me of a developing bad habit). And Chik-Fil-A’s sandwiches are noticeably made from slabs of meat, not meat puree; they’re delicious.

I agree - the Whopper Jr. is awesome, but why on EARTH does it come without cheese by default so you have to remember to ask for it?

I also love the BLT they have at Arby’s, but it’s overpriced.

White Castle Cheeseburger. Mmmm.

Taco Bell Cheesy Gordita.

Subway’s meatball sub, Wendy’s chili and McDonald’s hash browns are some of my favourites.

In-n-Out double double no cheese animal style. It’s the first thing I get after I land at LAX and it’s often the last thing I eat before I go back to LAX.

Five Guys little hamburger with the fixins’.

Wendy’s little frosty. Perfect ice cream treat without the calories of real hard ice cream.
