I have no qualms with any of them other than the fact that they costs more than cooking :(

Two craptastic places I will not eat in again, ever.

1-McDonald's
2-Big Boy

However in my area, Wendy's, Taco Bell, Arby's & BK are all clean places. However Wendy
's and Taco Bell are the places I go to most of the time for a quick meal.

uh....the thought of whitecastle makes me puke. what is it with the midwesterners that think something like "a slider" is a good idea? wretched.

I am a midwesterner, and I find White Castle and Krystal abhorrent.

McD, BK, and Wendys all disgust me. THen again, burgers never particularly appealed to me anyway, but if I want one, I want a real one.

I *love* Arbys and Chipotle, do Taco Bell on occasion though I agree that I do not feel quite right an hour or two after eating it.

My ranking from worst to best

McDonald's - utter crap food coupled with rotten service
Taco Bell - who would have thought you can take the same 5 items and repackage them 50 ways. If cost was an issue, TB would probably move up the list because it's dirt cheap.
Long John Silver's - food quality has been slipping and it's much too salty
Arby's - poor cost/benefit ratio
Hardee's - mediocre across the board
Chik-Fil-A - the great food outweighs the cost but the menu is pretty limited
KFC - great choice of sides
Wendy's - hot, juicy burgers and chili++
Burger King - flame-broiling FTW

I hate fast food. After eating clean for months at a time, cheap conglomerations of various animals parts and sugar loaded "health" products do not appeal to me in the slightest.

I eat fast food maybe once a month. I refuse to eat McDonald's, Taco Bell, KFC. I'm sure they aren't totally bad, but the ones around where I live are craptastic. Taco Bell being the worst probably, as a friend of mine found a BOLT in her burrito.

Also I just noticed recently the Arby's nearby has a freaking 78 health rating. I got tired of picking rat turds out of my food so I stopped going there.

Same here.. They both give a bad case of the sting ring..

I would also like to add Sonics, ugh terrible food.

Pretty much any fast food leaves me feeling nauseas afterward though.

Unless you just don't like fried chicken, how can you consider KFC disgusting? Uninventive, bland,or average, I can see. But disgusting?

It's a thread about your least favorite fast food restaurant. I disagree with about 75% of what's been mentioned so far. It's just personal taste.

You dislike Popeyes and Churchs?! Blasphemy!

No kidding, Popeye's has got to be #1 for fast food fried chicken.

Brown's Chicken ... too dry
KFC ... bland
Boston Market ... everything is too salty and way overpriced for the tiny portion sizes they give
Brown's Chicken is probably my least favorite of the chicken places
I LOVE Popeye's chicken.

Arby's curly fries and jamocha shakes save it for me. Couldn't care less about the rest of the menu though.

Favorite fast food places are Wendy's and White Castle.
Wendy's I can go to on a regular basis and always be pleased, White Castle not as often, but when I crave it, nothing else in the world can satisfy me.
