Unquestionably In and Out Burger. Unfortunately none are up around here.

Wendy's is second.

In and Out Burger? Fatburger? Never heard of it.

Arbys and Boston Market are good choices, and BK makes a good burger joint. With Wendys as a distant last.

I'm a Wendy's fan, except for the fries. For fries, I go to BK or Arby's.

The problem with Wendys is that there is nothing good there, outside of a few peripheral side dishes, like baked potatos and chili. Their fries are the worst known to man, their burgers are bad. Their spicy chicken sandwich is mediocre, and usually dry. And their pop is watered down. Wendys is far worse than even McDonalds in my book.

McDonalds can't compete with the Big Bacon Classic.

I think Subway is the best with Carl's Jr. second. I do not like eating at Carl's Jr. eastern subsiderary Hardee's. Yech.

HEATHEN! The Spicy Chicken sandwich at Wendy's is THE best fast food burger. Wendy's is the best of the burger joints.

I also like Taco Bell (for cheap, fast somewhat-Mexican ) and Subway. However, I voted for KFC.. yum!

The chain that's called Rally Burger in the north and Checker's in the South. I have no idea why they have 2 different names, but they make a great burger and used to have a fine sausage sandwich. Good fries, too, and great milkshakes.

SOnic has great drinks, but their burgers and fries are ****. Their "toasters" are great though, but expensive. Also they have a lot of other good menu items to make up for the lack of burgers and fries.

The ones I've actually been in myself, I'd have to say Subway, hands down.

What city are you in Frozzy?


I voted Subway, I don't like hard bread though, I like very soft chewy bread, other than that, I think subways are much healthier than what the rest offer, so I would take Subway over any other

As far as I know we only have 4 of those options in the UK (McD's, Burger King, KFC and Subway) and I've only actually heard of another 3 or 4 on the list. Some of them sound a bit fruity to me.

I think the names "Blimpies" and "Fatburger" are genius, though. Nobody could accuse them of false advertising.

In Austria, we have only Mc Donald's (everywhere), Burgerking (in major towns) and Subway (Vienna only). Oh, and Wienerwald of course. Among those, I like Subway best.
In America, I've been at Wendy's and KFC once, but I can't remember anymore how it was (it's been 10 years). My girlfriend swears on Taco Bell, but she thinks, it's too expensive.
