What is your LEAST favorite fast food restaurant?

[TLO]

Simply Red's classic Hardees thread got me to thinking - where is everybody's least favorite fast food joint? Poll will be coming soon!

Yeah, sure, they're always packed. We ate there last year on our way to Palm Springs. The restaurant was packed but suffered from everything I listed above.

I guess it's just not to my liking. My family didn't like it, either.

I am usually nursing a mild hangover (vegas ), so that might be a contributing factor with my "taste".

Wow, you've only eaten at a Taco Bell, one time?



Like many restaurants, it was great in the 70's and 80's. But after Don Bell sold to Pepsi, it really fell off a cliff. They tried to get people back by offering .49 cent tacos for the longest time, but the quality never returned.

It's all good, man. Next time, try Fatburger. It's awesome. Get a side of chili cheese fries with onions, too.

That'll help your hangover.

Original Tommy's is even better if you're over that way.

A&W is probably my least favorite fast food joint. Everything sucks, but the cheese curds are decent.

Agreed. In N Out is pretty terrible and way overrated. The only redeeming quality of that place was that it was mentioned in The Big Lebowski. Their menu was very basic, the fries were meh and the burgers were bland.

I daughter writes for FireHouse subs content marketing and Subway grinds up their chicken with fillers. That's why it looks so gross.

Taco Via

The food sucks and a subhuman girl once invited me there for a date.

That said, any time I say In N Out is terribly overrated, the first and ONLY response is "ANIMAL STYLE!!!" (and people generally agree their fries are pointless)....... Smother your food in something that actually tastes good, it's amazing!!"

I could throw some bacon and Gates on just about any fast food burger and make it pretty decent, just like I can add spread to In N Out's tasteless fries and basic burger to make them taste like, well, the spread.

I could go my whole life without eating there again.

I raised this exact issue in another thread, pretty sure it was "What are you cooking for dinner" megathread. I ate there just once here in Phoenix and took my fries back to get new ones not realizing they just suck! Took 2 of the new ones and hated so much gave the entire batch to two young guys next to me. Young people today love everything undercooked.

I agree 100%

Subway is gross and the real shit thing is, the last 2 times I was in a Subway they were robbed (1991). I have seen people bring their subs to work, they don't look like they have any meat, mostly lettuce and tomato's.

So, I haven't eaten fast food from one of these places in years but the other day, while on a road trip, I hit Chik Fil A as what I thought was the best of my limited options. My Christ, was it awful. I spent the next 8 hours fighting the urge to puke and when I arrived at my destination, I ate 2 pieces of chocolate cake just to get the disgusting after taste out of my mouth. I'll eat crickets off the side of the road before I eat Chick Fil A again.

And there are so many better burger places in the southwest..... yet when someone posts in facebook about landing somewhere in California, it's "first stop, In N Out, amazing!!!"
