Burgers cost ~ €1˝ here, AFAIK.
Even if they would give that stuff for free, I wouldn't eat it.
Tastes awful, plus very unhealthy.

I dislike tofu, but eat at least one can of beans every day.

All food is healthy, except for arsenic, cyanide, and other stuff that should not be in there anyway..

What's wrong with lard! You guys want healthy? Try Chicharron, or the skin of the pork, with a little meat attached, deep fried in Lard..ahhhhhhh..its just so damn good!

Its intertesting to note that Hardees, or Roy Rogers, or White Castle and such other chains barely get mentioned. That can be good for their bottom lines.

White Castle sucks .

I enjoy a Wendy's over Burger King, McDonald's, etc. Though BK's Whoppers are always decent .

Arby's have some good stuff as well .

But KFC is soooo good. As is Taco Bell. Yum .

Arrgghh - all this seems to revolve around burgers and chicken bits!

The kids here love 'em as well, but there's a host of locally owned takeaway Chinese, Indian, Pizza places, fish 'n' chip shops and good pub meals which offer much better food and value.

I don't care if I ever see a McDonald's or KFC again!

If there were a "I dont care all that much for fast food, but it is often all I have time for", Id pick that one.

All you poor people... I guess Del Taco and Jack in the Box are mostly west coast. Seriously, almost all other fast food is crap, but these two places are good. Since no one else has mentioned either, I'm forced to assume you simply don't have them.

Ugh -- fast food is for people who want to slice off a few years of their lifespan if they eat it day in and day out.

I will eat at fast food restaurants only as a matter of convenience, when my stomach is telling me that I need something to eat now, before I get back home, or wherever my destination is.

Subway and KFC are a lot better than the grease stops like McDonald's or Wendy's.

Well, it wouldn't be the first time I've had bollocks on me, but I'm not a food snob. I care about what I eat, in terms of flavour and nutrition. If I wanted saturated fats soaking into doughy carbohydrates, I could buy some lard, leave some rolls hanging around for a few hours, then melt the lard on them and stick some wilted iceberg lettuce in it, top it with plastic cheese and meat slurry. Yum.

On the other hand, what's wrong with a bowl of pho? Or won ton soup? Or Vietnamese spring rolls? Or satay beef on skewers, with achar? Or laksa? Or brinjal bhajias, or croque monsieur, or felafel in pita bread, with hummus and coriander, or roti and dhal with mango chutney?

And those are all fast foods that are a good deal tastier than McCrapburgers.

I dunno how far spread Whata-burger is, I think its mostly just in Texas, but damn, best fast food burgers ever. Their french fries are really good too.

I never cared much for arby's, but they have these Market Fresh sandwiches that are GOOD! they taste like somethn from a good deli.

Indian sucks ass (I'd rather drink the grease from the french fries at McD's).

Chinese and Pizza are usually more expensive than fast food.

Actually I'm quite partial to a Chicken Tikka... I used to know some Indian patients at my mum's hospital when I was a kid(she was a dialysis nurse). they cooked the best Onion bhagis this side of Calcutta, much nicer than Indian restaurants.

Trust a Brit to bring up Fish'n'chips.

I echo the sentiment wholeheartedly however.
Very hard to come by in Oz though...

I love eating pizza. The place I usually go to get it is Papa Johns, which has one of the best pizza's arround. Allthought they probelly better ones I dont know about, but they are better then Pizza Hut and the rest.

I like Carls Jr., Del Taco(49 cent tacos), And sometime Buger King.

One I hate the most is McDonadls.
I kind a like subway, but get sick of it after a while.

I usually only have fastfood for lunch, since I dont have time to make a lunch and take it with me.

Too bad they are only in California where I live, so most of you have never been to the place, which makes really good bugers.

MMMmmmmm Mmmmmm gotta love that 99cent heartattack in a bag I used to do the fast food alot because it was close. Now it's 7 miles to the nearest fast food joint! If I could just break my better half from it. It's to easy for him since he works nights to just zip into a fast food joint grab a buger and go.

Lots of people seem to say that they don´t like to eat fast food, but do so when it is convenient and they are hungry.

The solution to this is to keep a jar of peanut butter and some crackers in your backpack or purse. This is cheap, convenient, healthy, and nonperishable, and frees you from vending machines and rotten restaurants. Combine this with a big healthy breakfast of something whole grain like oatmeal and you won´t have any need to buy convenience foods.

I almost never eat it, probably twice a year when I'm on the road and pressed for time. Life is too short for bad food.

I don't know what KFC is, but it's definitely not chicken. Perhaps some chicken/pigeon amalgam bred in a secret laboratory at KFC world headquarters.

Some of the stuff off of Wendy's super value menu is actually good for you. I usually get a small chili, baked potato, and caesar salad for just over 3 bucks at lunch, and that's a fairly healthy meal.
