This.

100% beef applies more in burgers than anything. You can taste the difference in burgers.

I just ate lunch from TB, too...

100% real beef is just the name of the company that makes mcdonalds meat apparently. not the actual % of meat in the patty haha

I don't care for McDonalds. Wendy's has the best fast food burgers. imo

I don't think they have 100% beef but not freezing their meat makes a difference.

Hopefully, this will lead me to steer clear of Taco Bell for a while.

As for fast food, when I have the cash, I usually go to BK for a spicy chicken sandwich with a medium diet drink. It costs me less than three dollars, and I feel fine and filled by eating that.

[JonM229]

I haven't had any fast food in over a month now. I've actually stopped going out to eat except once since the New Year. I've already lost over 5 pounds and have saved over $100.

5 lbs for you fatty, is like walking up to one of those 1 ton bails of hay and pulling out a single straw.

*snicker*

But that's cool about the 100 beans.

[darklight1216]

I once heard that Taco's Bells food is one grade above dog food. I'm not sure whether or not that's true though... not that it makes a difference.

Does Five Guys count as fast food? I'd take their burgers over just about anyone's but Checkers and Bulletz deserve mention.

But did you save money on your car insurance by switching to Geico?

You shall crumble under the pressure that is Taco Bell. When you do, you shall buy $100 worth of Mexican Pizzas...

... Now I want a Mexican Pizza. Thanks Jon.

Naw I don't consider Five Guys as fast food. Their burgers are crazy good and yes better than all fast food.

thats awesome man!! the cost to eat out these days is brutal, and the quality of food for your money isnt justifiable either, sugar is a big part of it, my wife cut out sugar shes down 15lbs in 20 days, but shes of those ppl that carbs r more of a factor than other ppl, different body types u know.

I treat myself on Thursdays (Fridays is cafeteria food - Chicken Salad sandwich). Wendy's, Subway or McDonalds Black Angus (occasionally KFC or Taco Bell). Usually I get chicken, but I love my french fries.

McDonalds Black Angus doesn't make me feel like crap 30 minutes after I eat it like their other burgers do.

thats the one thing about mcdonalds, no matter what i always feel like crap after i eat it, so i tend to stay away, BK is the only other place that has done that to me and its only happened a few time, i can eat as much taco bell as i want and feel fine, u guys in the states have WAY more fast food chains then we do in canada, even in the major cities, its not even close, i c ads on tv all the time and im like "i wish they had that place here"

That's kind of a regional thing as well. For instance, We don't have (to my knowledge) any Carl's Jr's on the East Coast. Hardee's and Sonic tend to be a southern thing (although that's changing). There are a couple other burger joints on the west coast we don't have either.

I'm pretty sure Nathans is an East Coast thing as it originated in Coney Island.

[JonM229]

Northern states are blessed with White Castle. Southern states are forced to have Krystal

[thewarden86]

Apparently Taco Bell is not happy with the accusation: [url="http://www.app.com/article/20110125/NEWS06/110125113/Taco-Bell-says-its-beef-mixture-is-seasoned-meat"]My link[/url]

Yes, but they get Krispy Kremes instead of Dunkin Donuts and I think Krispy's are better doughnuts (Can't touch the coffee though).

White Castle, by-the-way, goes through me like (poop) through a goose!

They are thinking outside the bun. I do not eat there...I go to Del Taco(big in So.Cal).

I've heard of that place.

So, is there really a Big Kahuna Burger? If so, is it good?
