Burger King is way worse than McDonald’s, it actually might be my least favorite here, but I haven’t tried a few of these.
burger king had veggie burgers for a long time, and now has the impossible whopper. one of the few true fast food places besides taco bell where I can eat these days.
We went to BK a few months ago because we didn’t have time for anything else. They messed up literally everything in the order.
The Taco Bell by us is the fucking worst. So fucking nasty, and 99% of the times our orders are incorrect. But tbh, I am not a fast food fan at all. There is no fast food chain that gets me excite to order from and I don't eat it very often. I would rather have frozen food shit that I can throw in the air fryer.
EDIT: Actually all the fast food by us is like that. The McDonald's tries to make you pull up so you don't fuck up their 2 minute counter thingy. Maybe that is why I am not a fast food fan.

Cookout is great. they are open late and are cheap. they sell this little fast food size burgers that always have a pleasant flame grilled taste. their fries are nothing to get excited about but OK, their onion rings are decent.
the move at cookout is to get a burger and a milkshake. they have a million different milkshakes, and they hilariously always give you a straw even though nobody has ever successfully consumed a cookout milkshake through a straw because they are so thick. they are essentially blizzards (they give you a spoon too). but IMO they are better than blizzards because the soft serve isn't sickeningly sweet. easily my favorite fast food "milk shake".
agree that chick fil et is great. it's a nice thing to grab on the road that won't make you feel like you are dying after you eat it. the drive through line is always insane, but on a road trip you want to stop and go use the bathroom anyway, and usually nobody is inside. but locally i rarely eat chick fil et, we have a local chicken finger place called Foosacklys that fucking blows it away. foo does the same think as zaxby's basically but the food is always fresh and hot and the service is fantastic.
bojangles is incredible but will make you feel like you are dying after you eat it, especially the bo berry biscuits.
in n out gets built up in people's heads as the best burger ever, when really it's just a very good fast food burger. if you go in with that expectation you will enjoy it. i love it and always try to get a meal there when i'm out west.
i don't think we've talked about Panda Express yet but I really love Panda Express. lo mein + orange chicken is pure flavor town.
I refuse to eat Chick-Fil-A, besides Popeye's chicken sandwich is ten thousand times better and they are open on Sunday.
100% agree that popeyes chicken sandwich is soooooo much better than chick-fil-a's. hell it's better than the Fuku spicy chicken sandwich (which is basically a gussied up chick fil a sandwich).

I think this is the thing - it's head and shoulders above your BK/McD's/Wendy's etc. basic cheeseburger shiz but because of their business model they've been only on the far west coast for so long they were like a "white whale" for most of America. it's good, but it's scarce so they hype gets higher than it should be. they don't have the extensive menu options of a cookout/hardee's/carl jr/whataburger or any chicken. but they have the best price:quality ratio, imo.
double-double animal+protein style with animal style fries for under $10 is a great deal. their fries are definitely different because they are fresh cut and only single fried so they aren't like most places.

I do admit Popeye’s sandwich is better but half the times we’ve been there they’re out of something. Chick Fil A service is impeccable.
That is not quite how it is here. Popeye's has never been out of something, but they constantly need to cook more fucking chicken and makes you wait. The thing that is the same about both these places? They both have lines so fucking long, down the street and around the corner, that you would rather die than wait in them.
They are opening a Chick-Fil-A in my "neighborhood (Algiers)" across the street from the Popeye's. Basically there will now be two lines of cars on a busy main throughway. SOOOO smart.
It definitely is. We passed one yesterday and laughed at the idea of stopping to eat there because gross.
My very first job was working at a LJS. My first day I saw the Waffle House across the street was hiring a cook for .50 cents more an hour. I went in on a smoke break (wearing a LJS uniform), got the job and got in my car and left. Apparently, making hush puppies for a few hours was my limit.
The joke was on me though. I smelled like fish for days after.

The LJS here is a KFC also (at least in my hood), which is fucking weird.

I am 2 years removed from being a seafood wholesaler. Thank you for reminding me of the smell.
A LJS located like two block from my house even recently had a kitchen fire and somehow still reopened after that. People apparently love it. I don't fucking get it at all. I remember when I was a kid my Grandmother on my Dad's side would exclusively go to two restaurants: LJS and Bob Evans. Barf.
Also Culver's should absolutely be on this list. And it would probably win.
Culver's is pretty good. Not sure about it winning the whole thing though.
I ran down this list and realized I have had everything except Whataburger. Only had Checker's/Rally's once though. Lastly, I drove past a Hardee's today, and they are advertising something called the Bacon Beast which is peak Hardee's.
I had Hardee's for the first time on the way to the mansion. It was a bad decision. There was a Bojangle's next door...I had never heard of it before and was told to eat it before we left, but forgot. Fun Fact, my stepfather's last name is Hardee.

alawre said I am wrong for defending Cook-Out. Cookin' Mama's post reminded me that I undervalue fries compared to most people. Like I really don't care about them all that much.

I probably overvalue fries compared to most. It’s not just a side to me really, it’s on the same level as the burger. I like them a lot.

Does Krystal get some points for having at least some place in society? Like its so ridiculous that it becomes fun and funny to order a sack of 12 once every 3 years and hammer them home. Plays a role in my life at least where I'll never order from a Checkers again because it brings nothing of note to the table.
