1. Burger King's Whopper Jr meal (I love Bk's thick fries. I wished they had Impossible Jr but they don't).
2. Chik-fil-A spicy chicken meal (I like the waffle fries and the Chik-fil-A sauce).

I haven't had fast food in years. I always have food at home, & things in the freezer that can be cooked from frozen, such as battered fish filets, burgers, & pulled pork. Plenty of veg & fruits. If we are traveling & no access to a kitchen, I prefer to go to a decent restaurant & get real food.

Same here. I only eat out when my Corvette club has a cruise.

Burrito Supreme at Del Taco or Taco Bell. They just taste good!
Big Mac and chocolate shake at McDonalds (Because there are no more Bob's Big Boy Restaurants)
Asiago Chicken ranch from Wendy's, and a chocolate frosty.
Fast food maybe once every three or four months is all. But sometimes it's just needed, LOL.

I don't eat in my car, so any trips to the drive-thru windows result in me driving right back home to chow down. I'm partial to Chick-fil-a most of the time (and a new location opened up a few blocks from our place in Honolulu), but I don't discriminate.

I hardly ever get fast food, but once in a blue moon I will eat In-n-Out or Raising Cane's.

My Burger King and Taco Bell days ended in the 1990s.

What about you?
That used to be one of my Mom's favorites, the Wendy's Baked Potato. I forgot about those, it's been about 6 years since I'd gotten one of those.

El Pollo Loco - Chicken Tostada Salad

In general, I quit heading to fast food because many of the supermarkets have "upped their game" and can offer me a good, substantial deli for under $4 (Frys, Winco Foods).

Also, the more upscale convenience stores like QuikTrip offer 1/4 lb hot dogs with all of the fixings for 2/$4 which is fine for the two of us.

In general, though, we are planning more and more meals at home as the Chicken Tostada Salad that we purchased for $10.49 today was only $6.49 three years ago.

Wife and I are light eaters. McDonald’s Happy meal with the double cheese burger is enough for us. Use to enjoy Wendy’s but our local franchise has gone downhill in quality (building condition, management, and employees). We might eat fast food once or twice a month. It’s usually between McDonald’s and Popeyes. This being south Louisiana, there are plenty of better tasting options for eating out. But for something quick we have to go fast food. Oh, I do enjoy Whataburger but they aren’t fast but that’s what makes it taste better.

A burger from whichever place is closest when I want one.
