How do you guys feel about mcdonalds, burger king, wendys, taco bell, boston market, KFC (kentucky fried creature), etc?

Personally, I like mcdonalds. I have to idea what I'm eathing and I like it that way. Their vanilla shakes are CRAP though, they don't even taste CLOSE to vanilla. I like burger king even more the mcdonalds, especially their fries, but there aren't as many burger kings around so I don't got there very often. Wendys and Roy Rogers are pretty good, but same situation as burger king. Boston Market kicks ass, their food tastes great! Taco bell and KFC are just total crap though.

edit: oh yeah and mcdonalds breakfast bagles are GREAT!

Subway is the best all-around fast food. Little expensive, though (compared to the burger joints).

Burger King is the sovereign of all burger joints. The Mickey D's bagels are of moderate quality, however.

Taco Bell is cat food.

Jack in the Box is my favorite. Especially the chicken teriyaki bowls.

taco bell is NOT suitable for cat food!

I don't like SubWay but i do like taco bell. Burgerking sucks. there is this great little burger joint i go to. they have practically ANY flavor shake, i get banaa pineapple. but they don't quite qualify as Fast food cos they are slow as shit.

This is Germany - we have hardly half of the fast food of Northern America (e.g. KFC don't exist here). What can I say 'bout it... ummm... McDonalds is okay, but not too often, in the long run I really prefer fresh stuff like vegetables or fruits.

About the vanilla milkshakes - apart from the coffee, they're the best thing they sell. A McDonalds vanilla shake can serve as lunch if there ain't a way of getting some decent food.

I like Toke-A-Bowl because the stuff is cheap, warm, and quick. Instant gut-bomb. You know what's cooler? Del Taco. It's a taco joint, but they have value meals with crinkle-cut fries!!! Can you believe it?!?!?! "Give me the 2 Macho Taco value meal, and supersize the crinkle cut fries!!!" Baby!

And Jack in the Box rules. The commercials are funny, and you can get anything at all there to eat. However, I've always been partial to Arby's. I worked there, once upon a time. I became partial to their roast beef, and to their chicken (the best in the market). And, the frozen cookies stolen from the freezer were the best. mmmm...


Posted by Sithiee on Apr. 10 2001,20:06
subway is the best place for sandwiches, no doubt. then burger king definitly has best tasting burgers, but i prefer roy's burgers because of the fixins bar. for chicken roys is best, same with roast beef. i miss roys theyre all gone around here. wendys was ok, until that canadian cum sucking bastard dave thomas took away the bacon mushroom melt. FUCKING COCK WHORE CANUCK!!!!!! taco bell is shit, i literally get sick from eating it, every single time.kfc is ok, ive never had boston market, and mcdonalds sucks ass too.

oh yeah and blimpies kicks subway's ass anyday.

Oh shit! Schlotzky's Deli!!!

Best sandwiches ever. Plus, you get some olive oil and basalmic vineger at the counter, and dunk away. I think that may just be dinner tonight.

Im suprised noone has mentioned the EVER CLASSIC WHITE CASTLE

Yummmmmm I love me a sack of ten.....

Subway sucks big donkey balls, Mr Sub is the greatest!!! Arby's is alright, good beef and cheddar. Taco Bell is good for supressing the munchies, but the meat comes in a bag, I mean come on! The thing I like about KFC is the fact that the grease from the fries goes through the fry bag, then the brown paper bag! McD's is alright if you go on Sunday's and get the Ũ.59 Cheeseburgers. The best place for burgers is Harvey's!!!

Oh, and when you feel like getting a abnormally large burger, go to Wendy's and order a Grand Slam, it's not on the menu and costs like Ű.00 Canadian just for the sandwich.

Hmm, i agree that they're not really all that vanilla tasting, but IMO they are nice in their own right..

apparently macca's in germany sells beer, but it isnt all that great?
Posted by masher on Apr. 11 2001,08:44
Hungry Jacks (Burger King) is the best place down here.

KFC isn't all that bad, their burgers are nice, but they're too small.

Macca's is just plain crap.

There was, for a short while, this little place around here called Back Yard Burger... My GOD was that stuff aweseome! The had these bomb ass burgers, and these great fries, and all their shakes used REAL ice cream and lik real strawberries, and... my god I loved that place!


As for the lowwer grade stuff it all seems strangley good tasting... even Taco Bell (but not KFCrap)


Posted by fire_502 on Apr. 11 2001,12:27
the town i go to school in is really small. we have 1 mcdonalds in town and then one sorry excuse of a mcdonalds in the walmart at the other end of town. then we have one burger king, which is open til 3 thursday-saturday nights and is walking distance from both frats and bars, making it the most popular. then we have a subway, a kfc, and a taco bell. oh yeah, a hardees too. that's it. my favorite is mcdonalds but i don't mind a subway every now and again. i'll only eat burger king when i'm drunk and it's the only option. i *refuse* to eat taco bell. just thinking about it is making me ill. and the only thing i have ever eaten from kfc is a biscuit, like 8 years ago. and nothing beats those shamrock shakes at mcdonalds. they should have them all year! on another random note, it's impossible to find mint ice cream without chocolate in it.

Yeah, they actually do. It's not really all that surprising or shocking, here you're allowed to drink alcohol at age 16 (yeah right, 5 years before some US states!), so they don't have to bother much with under-age laws. I can't say whether it's good or bad beer there from personal experience as I never drink beer, but I've been told their beer rather sux.

SiLVeR54: on POUTINE, you're right... I guess Poutine is the best thing the Québécois invented (apart from the snowmobile, of course). What would I give for a Poutine with lots of cheese...

some of them? the drinking age in the states is 21 everywhere. i think it's a federal law. they temporarily lowered it to 18 during 'nam, but that's it.


Posted by askheaves on Apr. 11 2001,22:42
It's not a federal law. It's a federal request made to all the states, with the threat of pulling highway funds if it's not followed. The government does this all the time. Same reason the national speed limit was 55mph until recently.

Wisconsin was one of the last holdouts, with drinking age at 19 for a few years. Finally, they gave in (because Wisconsin roads get beat up pretty good) and went to 21.

I was 15 when I visited Germany, and they didn't have any problem with selling me anything. I didn't have an ID yet... because I was 15. Didn't matter, though, since nobody asked. Hell, went to a school party and they were selling beer AT SCHOOL!!!! Kids were drinking and smoking during the school day between classes, and nobody cared. If they got too drunk, they were sent home for being an ass.

I don't know, man. I think I like that attitude better... much more like college. Don't be an ass, do your work, and you'll be fine.

Oh, and KFC is too expensive, and Burger King chicken sandwiches rule because juice drips out of them. Also, Dairy Queen has the best fries around. They taste like egg.


Posted by Neophyre on Apr. 12 2001,01:59
man i'd love to go to germany.. some nice fuckin chicks there!

over here drinking age is 18

fire, that's cos mint naturally grows on chocolate in the dessert so it's a lot easier to mix them together when they make the ice cream than take them apart via fractional distillation because that would make it far too expensive.

Anyway, Burger King's the best but it's way too expensive and there seems to be so much more choise there after being at McDonalds. their fries are awesome though. Or at least were. Their old fries were dubbed 'Stealth Fries' because they had a special coating like the bombers, everyone loved them but now they've pulled them. Bullshit.
cheers

Yeah it is quite nice. The actual law says 16 for stuff like wine, beer, cocktails, etc. and 18 for the drinks with higher percentage, vodka, whiskey and the like, but actually, you can get practically everything because they hardly ever ask for your ID. Now, on one hand that's quite nice, but on the other hand it makes people start drinking alcohol at parties quite early, and then later when they get their driver's licence (here that's only at age 18), there are a lot of accidents and deaths because of drunk driving.

About drinking and smoking during the school day - I can't really imagine that. The age limit for smoking is 16, too, in this country but at school usually people aren't allowed to smoke except outside. And alcohol is sometimes allowed at school parties, but usually only in VERY limited and controlled quantities.

And yeah Neophyre... just come here

Here in Wisconsin we have a new fast food chain called Culvers it’s pretty damn good, there are like 20 or 30 of them around the state and some in Minnesota, Iowa and Illinois. Go there if you can, great food and it doesn’t suck. A little expensive though.
