Although I live in New Jersey, I've only been to White Castle once (was good actually). I'd have to go with Arby's though, since their food taste more "real" than any other fast food place I've been to.

Don't eat that. You'll get a stomachache, or you'll get very fat and sick. Now, perhaps the quality of those services there is far better than here; but a friend ate a Burger at burger king (local version) and vomite for a week because of how old the meat was. Anyway, it's your life and your money. I cook for myself, because I love myself tremendously. Crostini is my way of life. Nothing can be as delicious as Crostinis...

Other. In Finland there's Hesburger, which is almost the same as McDonald's, but the food is better in my opinion.

Other: Wendy's. Only "burger" type fast food I can deal with (McDonald's just makes me sick now).
Best Mexican fast food: Chipotle.
The poll is also missing Subway, another favorite of mine, and though it might not technically be fast food, places like Panera Bread and Cosi serve much better food than McD/BK fairly fast, though at appreciably higher cost.

Did you know that Chipotle is owned by McDonald's?

MOS Burger is a Japanese fast food chain that shows how well it can be done. When I was over there they had 300+ restaurants serving freshly cooked fresh food including burgers that tasted of beef and chips (fries) that had recognisably once been part of a potato. They also served the drinks in actual glasses and even supplied cutlery. Of course, they were dwarfed by the likes of McDonalds and KFC, but they were only slightly more expensive and infinitely better.
Mr Donut is also big over there, and serves pretty good donuts and more or less drinkable coffee, the latter being a rarity in Japan.

None of the above, not even if you paid me...........cooking's fun, and if you can't taste the difference.....  ......and it's even better if you grow your own....

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

I am a cook at Sonic and trust me, if you knew what fast food was like behind closed doors you would not eat there.

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

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.

My wife and I were hungry and decided to try the new Chipotle they opened near where we live in Corona. I walked in and was horrified by all the metal surfaces inside the restaurant, it was so loud and clangy that it seriously disturbed my chi. Although my wife was peeved at me I couldn't hang inside that place and we ate at the chinese fast food next door.  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.
