The reviewer must not have actually tried the cruncht ground beef taco, becasue it doesn’t have refried beans on it. He obviously doesn’t eat beef in the first place, so how can he review fast food?
The best deal in fast food is the Burger King Whopper Jr. Sesame bun, mayo, and lettuce and tomato. Pickle, too. 99 cents in my town.
Best fast food restaurant, IMO, is Chipotle. Yum! If there wasn’t one near my house, I would move to where there was one. The one by where I live serves margaritas. Real margaritas, for 3.50 each. OMG! They are fantastic!
Jack in the Box is pretty good for variety. The chicken fajita pita is the bomb. Wendy’s is rather boring, but they have decent chili and actual baked potatoes. Still better than McDonalds, regardless of the price. I don’t know about Carl’s Jr./Hardees, I stopped eating there long ago because I hate their commercials. I’m still boycotting after 12 years.

Zach's top pick: Southern Style Crispy Chicken Sandwich, $3.57, 550 calories Introduced a few months ago, this looks a lot like a Chick-Fil-A sandwich. Its fried chicken with pickles and the roll is buttered. Its a good mix, and with the 99-cent sweet tea, its perfect.
Mmmmmmm....

I like Subway, but my favorite fast food lunch is Chic-Fil-A.
McDonald’s Southern Crispy Chicken sandwich and the similar one they now have at KFC are poor imitations of Chick-Fil-A.

The best deals are:
Double Cheeseburger (or hamburger) for one buck at McDonald’s. Also McDonald’s side salad for a buck is really good, with a great Creamy French dressing (Paul Newman’s) or Italian dressing, both are great. Don’t forget to ask for croutons! Also cheap and good are Burger King’s Whopper Jr. for one buck.

I'd like to nominate the In-N-Out Double Double Combo--$5 and mid change--the best fast food in California, Nevada and Arizona...Get it animal style! Another honorable mention is Five Guys...where they aren't scared to give you a good portion of fresh cut french fries...and the burger is hand formed and fresh cooked. Just my .05 (.02 with Obamanomic tax increase)

Upstate NY ping!
Hoffman’s also makes a white hot dog which is really good—especially when you get them at Heid’s in Liverpool, NY

Yes it is...and it is where little

With cheese, carmelized onions, tomatoes, and special sauce.
I-N-O does not use frozen beef...and they do not use frozen french fries...but the freshly peeled Idaho kind that they cook fresh.
That’s the best description I can give...I hope you can get to do some first hand research.
Enjoy!

Five Guys hamburgers are too dry for me but the fries are really good.
