Pizza Hut is my pick, but they tend to be more expensive than e.g. McDonalds or Burger King. Therefore my second vote (if I had one) would go to Burger King (because their burgers taste better than McDonalds').

The tough thing to realize with fast food is that your products must be tasting exactly the same all over the planet, while meeting the local taste. The good thing about fast food is that if you do not know where to eat safely (bacteriologically speaking that is) in say....... India (you can die of complications of diarrheas just earting a peach, because your immune system is not prepared for those microbes), than international fast foods chains is the answer.
 
While I am an ardent defender of Gastronomy (yes, with the big G), I do not tend to attack fast foods too much, because they have their use when not abused of
 
 
 
 
 
I suppose Subway is the equivalentof Submarine >>> OK
 
Burgers >>> BK and Wendy's are the best (but I have been in Wendy's in 20 years)
Pizzas >>> the Hut is fine , but the local pizzeria/trattoria is also good
 
Taco Bell is an insult to tex-mex food, though!
 
Lots of these FF chains I do  not know on this list, though! I suppose they are US only

My wife and I were hungry and decided to try the new Chipotle they opened near where we live in Corona.

Although my wife was peeved at me I couldn't hang inside that place and we ate at the chinese fast food next door.LOL I've heard from other people that they have good food.
 
My vote goes to arby's. Since I went Vegetarian about six years ago, this has been one of the fast food places I miss the most.


Well, I guess since I either don't have a "chi" or don't subscribe to the fact that I do, the decor wasn't bothersome for me.  Remember that I thought Chipotle was among the better Mexican "fast food" - it's not like it compares to an actual Mexican restaurant.

FWIW:  one of my friends is Vegan, and Chipotle veggie burritos are among his favorites.

Yes, and I appreciate the irony, but still love those burritos.

Pizza is the best fast food, and for the list I'll chose Pizza Hut, of course here in my city there's a Pizza restaurant better than Pizza Hut.


Oh, and some tacos from a local restaurant.

Does Subway count?

If so, I vote Subway. It's the only "fast food" I eat at. Tongue

I don't do fast food, but if I do it will be some sandwich place like Quiznos or Arby's.

Taco Bell, but they are all good to me.  Except White Castle which I have never tried.
