Beef Jerky Posted June 25, 2016 Posted June 25, 2016 What about White Castle? Never been to one... Rat burgers... they give you little burgers with holes in them. Those burgers are for rats.
snafu Posted June 25, 2016 Posted June 25, 2016 Dunkin donuts food is just pathetic... How it makes this list is a mystery. Dunkin donuts can't make its food look appetizing on a t.v. commercial. If you can't do that, I don't consider it to be food.
Maury Ballstein Posted June 25, 2016 Posted June 25, 2016 I love Panera but don't really consider that fast food as for the most part its healthy stuff. Do you listen to Coldplay while your there ?
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted June 25, 2016 Posted June 25, 2016 Do you listen to Coldplay while your there ? Haha. Regarding Panera, I have recently come to the conclusion that it is a total rip-off. I got a pick 2 the other day, and it was like $15. Just outrageous for what you get. My sense from talking with some friends is that a lot of people are now feeling the same way.
Wayne Cubed Posted June 25, 2016 Posted June 25, 2016 I just feel like "fast food" joints have their food delivered frozen, pre-formed/shaped, pre-cooked and just need to either be nuked or thrown into a deep fryer. Five guys uses all fresh food, the mold their own burgers, cut their own potatoes for fries, use fresh veggies and real bacon, etc. I know it's "fast," time-wise, but I just have a hard time lumping it in with the McDonald's and BK type establishments. I tend to separate places like Five Guys, In and Out, and Chipotle into short order category, not fast food. Old diners were considered short order, you wouldn't call them fast food.

jr1 Posted June 26, 2016 Posted June 26, 2016 we need to get Kenny Rogers Roasters back from the Malaysians
Just Jack Posted June 26, 2016 Posted June 26, 2016 Went to Chick Fil-A last night. Just happens to be located on a street called Gay Circle.
BarleyNY Posted June 26, 2016 Posted June 26, 2016 Pizza delivery joints are considered fast food? Seems like that should be a separate category. Hate Chick-fil-A's politics, but love that damn chicken sandwich and waffle fries. Agree on all counts.
unbillievable Posted June 26, 2016 Posted June 26, 2016 KFC, Popeyes, and Church's Chicken are all in the same place close to me. I usually get KFC chicken, Popeye's sides, and Church's biscuits on the same trip out.
ExiledInIllinois Posted June 26, 2016 Posted June 26, 2016 Culver's. Here in the middle of the country.
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted June 26, 2016 Posted June 26, 2016 (edited) I had a five guys cheeseburger today. Confirmation of best burger status Edited June 26, 2016 by joesixpack
Johnny Hammersticks Posted June 26, 2016 Posted June 26, 2016 I had a five guys cheeseburger today. Confirmation of best burger status Seriously. I don't know what these people are talking about. 5 guys is pricy for fast food but very, very good IMO.
/dev/null Posted June 26, 2016 Posted June 26, 2016 yeah, really liked Vulgar Display of Power So it sounds like I'm not the only one whose brain subconsciously adds a T in the middle of Panera
Buffalo Barbarian Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 So it sounds like I'm not the only one whose brain subconsciously adds a T in the middle of Panera nope ( I knew what it was just couldn't resist, although if there was a fast food place called Pantera I would so be there )
Rico Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 Wow, that's a horrible list. I haven't eaten in any of those places in years. In 'N Out and Shake Shack are far and away the best for a burger. And unless you live in Iowa or somewhere where no one knows how to make a pizza, I can't understand why anyone would eat at the huge pizza chains. Everytime I have gone up to NYC to see a show at the Garden, I am always amazed at the huge crowd of people inside Szbarro's. Go figure.
Chilly Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 I had a five guys cheeseburger today. Confirmation of best burger status Incorrect. Whataburger, Shake Shack, and P. Terrys are all significantly better.
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 Incorrect. Whataburger, Shake Shack, and P. Terrys are all significantly better. That's like saying anchor bar is better than duff's. It may be your opinion, but it's wrong.

shrader Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 Haha. Regarding Panera, I have recently come to the conclusion that it is a total rip-off. I got a pick 2 the other day, and it was like $15. Just outrageous for what you get. My sense from talking with some friends is that a lot of people are now feeling the same way. The thing about Panera that drives me crazy is that all you typically see is the name of the sandwich, but the menu board doesn't actually say what is in it. Maybe they've changed that recently, but I always feel like I'm rolling the dice if I order something I haven't had before. Now onto Chic-fil-a. Maybe I've ordered the wrong sandwich in the past, but I don't yet get all the love for that place. Is it all about the fried chicken sandwich there? I always lean towards grilled, so maybe that's where I went wrong. It was fine, but nothing special. And the waffle fries are not my style. I didn't get a chance to hit the grocery store this weekend, so this thread is going to wind up being my inspiration for lunch today. Someone woo me.
