[QUOTE="Vraille Darkfang, post: 2663659, member: 16989"] People, People. Has food tastes dropped that much? I'm not that old (or maybe it was growing up in farm country), but you don't eat fast food because of the [I]Taste[/I]. You eat it because its fast (usually) and cheap (er). I can't really think of any Fast Food Chain that I'd call 'Great Food" I rank them into "Edible", "OK", and "Horribly Disgusting" I usually go to some local Chinese places when I want something quick & cheap. The good ones are like a home-made meal & I get it for less than 5 bucks. As to my local Fast Food Choices: Taco Hell (umm, Bell): Maybe it's coming from a Texas family that knows what Mexican is supposed to taste like. But calling Taco Bell Mexican (or even edible) is like calling a cow patty a steak. Of every Food Place I've been too, Traco Bell still wins "Worst Food Ever". McDonalds: Never Liked them. I used to be able to stomach the Chicken Nuggets & the fries were pretty good. The fries suck now. I'd put McD's & the Bell as my 2 least favorite eating places, actually. When it comes to Having to choose a Fast Food Place, I usually go to Wendy's (the only real option in our small town). PS. As fast food goes, Wendy's IS the best large national chain. My wife has several food alergies (including corn & various preservatives), Wendy's is the only place we found so far where she can even ORDER something. When I'm in Columbia (Which has about everything), I go to Burger King or Arby's do to convient location. Subway & Quiznos is OK. I can Stomach A&W, Fazolli's and most of the rest. In fact, the only 2 palces I boycott are McDonald's & Taco Bell. I've also realized that with better planning & time management, I can make my own food for cheaper, tha tastes 1,000's of times better & is a lot better for me. Still, I'll probably stop by BK tomorrow before my Wed Game for Supper. PS, the older I get, the greater the toll/reward I see my diet having on my health & I'm not yet 30. [/QUOTE]
