re: Let's consider fast food in general: where do you stand?

Fast food isn't really cheap anymore. There so many other quality options for the same price. I'm amazed that they're still around honestly.

If I'm hankering for a cheese burger, I'd consider 5 guys, Lankfords grocery, burger bus, or somewhere less processed (just as fatty....I get that).

Only fast food I can stand now is Taco Bell and Chick Fil A. The rest is too greasy, tasteless, and overpriced. The grease hurts my stomach now too.

That's true. A fast food "meal" is usually about $7. You can go one step up for about $2 more.

Taco Bell isn't greasy?

This thread has made me extremely hungry

Not compared to other fast food.

I went from living off it exclusively to not remembering the last time I've had it. I've never been fat or out of shape, so nothing's really changed. I simply stopped liking it for the most part.

I just either go to burger King or another fast food place called Jack's and get it over with.
I never get fries or a drink,just the burger.

I eat it daily

Fast food - 100% crap, but I kill for Popeyes every now and then.

No desire to eat it. Chick fi A is as far as I go on a semi-regular basis.

I could walk to several popular fast food places from my house, but I've never been to most of them. Canes, Zaxby, Chipotle, etc.
I ate the hell out of Popeyes in school, and even had a few cheap arse Whoppers when on sale, but I quit all that many years ago. Just don't want it.

I have cut it down significantly compared to what I used to do. I haven't gotten any McDonald's burger besides a Big Mac in many years. I still like Sonic, Whataburger, and Wendys every once in a while. Popeyes and chick fil a are good, but I don't do it more than two times a week usually. If subway wasn't such a damn ripoff I'd go more often. I'm eating more rotisserie chicken, sandwiches, etc. I do feel better physically since eating less fast food

The only things we have as far as fast food is one Mcdonalds and two Subway locations. I get a Subway sandwich maybe 3 times a year.
I'll eat Deli food once a week or so though.

There's become a very gray area of what is "fast food" and what isn't.
Is it simply places with drive thru?
Do places like 5 guys count?
If so, how is that different from other chain "restaurants" like Outback and Chili's ?
Even then, they use many of the same ingredients that more well respected restaurants use.
So really, what is "healthy" and what isn't?
IMO it's all about moderation. I eat out probably twice a week, and cook the rest of the week. I workout daily and I consider myself in the upper echelon health and fitness wise.

Unless I'm blackout drunk I never eat BK, McDonalds, Wendy's, etc. I don't mind places like Canes or Zaxby's even though a chicken finger plate ans drink is like 1300 calories 
Posted on 6/10/16 at 11:47 pm to CharlesLSU
I love greasy burgers but at least in my area, there's a hundred local places that make it better, cheaper, and to order so I don't hit the chains often. My problem is taco trucks and pho.
