After watching Supersize Me, I don't think I can eat fast food ever again.

I'm a fast food junkie. Wow I've realised today how bad my eating habits really are. Anyways... McDonalds fries are the absolute greatest, and I'm obsessed with pizza, but overall I voted for subway. It's just that before subway I never knew that a sandwich could be so enjoyable. They taste so amazing!
I've never seen Supersize Me though, but I think that that may already be apparent.

Ooooh. Thats the one with the guy who ate fast food for a week, got really sick, his liver went to fat, and all that stuff, right? Not exactly, but thats the idea, right? We watched that in foods class. Or I'm thinking of something completely different.
Subway or KFC if I had to pick.

Would you all believe that I've never personally tried Subway? I just put it up there coz so many people I know have eaten or worked there.
I would have chosen Pizza, but it takes too long to make, and the big-name pizzas (Pizza Hut etc) aren't all that great. Good, but not great.
And for all those who don't know, Oporto is a chicken fast food restaurant. Sort of like KFC, but better tasting. Their stuff is a lot more expensive than any other fast food burger/chicken chain, but damn it, that chicken is good! If I guess right, I think it's a Portugese based company.

Pizza! Papa John's, especially. Except that the one near my house closed. Now I have to eat Little Caesar's. Ugh.
My favorite fast food though has to be Burger King. They have such good croissandwich meals in the morning! And they have the best french fries. McDonald's fries are soggy/gross as hell.

He did it for a month, actually. However, his body started rebelling and what not after the first few days. He gained nearly 10 pounds within a week.

Same here, I watched it in health and I don't think I want to go to Mcdonalds ever again, that movie has some icky stuff in it, that I never want to see again.
I don't like fast food, most of the food is discusting. (except fries!)

Pizza all the way.

I voted Taco Bell. Best vegetarian fastfood place around. They never get me dirty looks. And I never heard of some of those on the list.

How could you forget the wondrous wonder that is Carl's Jr?
1. Carl's Jr. for every burger and the CRISS-CUT FRIES!!! (does not apply in Illinois, see #8)
2. Wendy's for a good value menu
3. Whattaburger for giving out compasses with kid's meals and having good food, but downgraded for being really pricey (I think there's no Whattaburgers outside of New Mexico.)
4. Burger King for some of the burgers, downgraded for having a wimpy value menu these days and cancelling Rodeos.
5. McDonald's for the fries and political incorrectness, downgraded for untoasted buns
6. KFC for, well, great chicken, downgraded for visceral grease and that awful cornbread
7. This chain in Quebec with a Gaul theme, for generally horrible food (the spaghetti was especially vile.)
8. Hardee's, for being too often the only breakfast available on road trips, atrocious food, and buying out Carl's Jr. in Illinois and ruining their recipes.
(Note: Only the really unhealthy chains are on this list. Chipotle is not on there because it's healthy, and those authentic Mexican joints aren't on there because they're not chains. The Mexican joints would blow Carl's Jr. out of the water, believe you me.)
