Eh, not really. There's a couple sit-down restaurants but I'd probably have to hurry to get back in time. Pretty much there's just fast food in this town. I could eat McDonald's everyday for a month and not gain any weight, so I ain't worried about that sort of thing, hehe.

Arby's and subway are the only two good choices there. Don't you have a Quizno, Jimmy Johns, Pancheros or something good?

Wheel of food?

sweet but, it's not a great selection for 85044, they're missing a lot of good restaurants around here.

Naw, none of that stuff here. It's a small town in the UP of Michigan so we're stuck with what's in the poll. I'm used it though, I love fast food.

I'm the only one who voted for McDonald's :laugh:. Looks like Taco Bell is winning! lol, meltdown, ASS FAT-UAL.

A couple of years ago, I started not liking Taco Bell really and didn't go there more than once every few months. But starting since the past few months, I've been hitting the hell out of it. It is never quality food, but usually good enough, and there is plenty of stuff that is good. I don't know how everyone here says they can't eat TB or McDs or this or that cause they feel sick for hours afterwards and shit tons. That's way exaggerated... or they are just lightweights (mmm healthy choices).

Also, 1 pound of boneless BBQ chicken chunks from Walmart FTMFW. The champ and I really only require subs and Walmart chicken.

lol. Yeah I've never gotten the shits from Taco Bell or anything. Maybe my body is used to fast food. Fast food rules.

Never heard of that chicken before, might have to check it out. Subs and chicken ftw, though.

It is possible, just not for everyone. There was one of those shows about strange surgeries, possibly on the Discovery Channel, where a guy tried to commit suicide by drinking Drain-O. It trashed his stomach and intestines. They saved his life, but now he basically has a tube running from his throat, over his ribcage, then down to his backside. They showed him pushing food over his ribcage when it got stuck.

He has to eat a lot to get anything out of it, and take mega-doses of vitamins.

well, in any event, all of the nancies that didn't drink Drain-O can still STFU because real men don't get upset stomachs.

I voted for KFC. You'll be knocked out after a big meal, that's how heavy that stuff is.
