I sometimes question the words "fast" and "food" as used in this context, but as a traveler, I eat a lot of the speedy stuff. Taco Bell is my favorite. I know it's just Mexican-style USA food, but I like it. I also like Arby's for the best roast beef and Wendy's for the best burger. BK's Whopper is a close second. Carl's Jr. had a Southwestern Burger a few years ago that was almost reason enough to go to California. I couldn't believe they dropped it. It came on an English muffin with a mesquite flavored sauce and other Tex-Mex stuff. Hardy's is good for Breakfast. McD's is a barf-o-rama as far as I'm concerned, but I have to admit that their toys are crunchy. Krystal is a good thing about once a year, when I get a sudden unexplained irrational craving. Why did they drop those donuts? Frizolies (Naw, that ain't the way to spell that.) is a great pig out and I like Subway and Blimpie. > Now you know the truth about the 40-inch waistline. > How"urp"ard
Agreed, at least on the ones I've been to. I voted for Taco Bell, as they seem to have a pretty good varitey of menu items; I'm not always in the mood for a burger, but I'm more often in the mood for some variety of taco. Of the burger joints, Wendy's is definitely the best. In fact, if I had to live with only 3 fast food places, they'd definitely be Subway, TB, and Wendy's.
