what's your fast-food favorite, or guilty-pleasure?

[LiberallyInclined]

I just LOVE the steak-egg-and-cheese bagel on McDonald's breakfast menu...YUM!

[Lavender Brown]

1. The Blizzard ice cream thing from Dairy Queen

which we don't have in NYC. :cry:

[Tyrone Slothrop]

9. I miss DQ so much...

They just don't have the good Midwestern guilty pleasures out here...

I'd kill for a Steak & Shake in Brooklyn...

[Beware the Beast Man]

2. Chipotle- Carnitas fajita burrito

Oh, and they're no longer owned by McDonald's as far as I know. And if they were...eh...

[CubsFan1982]

3. Bacon Butterburger at Culver's

It's a heart attack in sandwich form! :P

[solinvictus]

4. Several..

Occasionally, I love a Big Mac without onions, fries, and a root beer. I've found, though, that the Big Mac has shrunk over the years, so I've taken to making them at home where they resemble the original Big Boy rather than the McDonald's clone.

[cally]

5. In and Out cheeseburgers

Luckily, they are located about 20 minutes away so I rarely indulge.

[LiberallyInclined]

28. unluckily, they are located about 20 HOURS away...

That is one chain that i wish would expand to the midwest.

i like the t-shirts too.

[The empressof all]

6. Arby's Chicken Salad Sandwiches

I guess for fast food it's pretty healthy. Love the apples, grapes and nuts with the chicken on that great wheat bread.

Now of course if I'm visiting the East Coast you can't keep me away from White Castle.

[LiberallyInclined]

29. the thing i like about arby's is the curly fries.

and the turkey club.

[The empressof all]

30. There's heroin in those curley fries

At least that what my addicted 14 year old says. They are good aren't they? I'm not sure what the spice mix they use but it sure works---especially when they get them really crunchy.

[Nikia]

37. Except they are high calorie

Which is fine for me right now, but not someone trying to lose weight.
I like them too.

[xmas74]

7. The cheesy potatoes that they serve at Taco Bell

with a ton of fire sauce dumped on them.

[warrens]

8. That steak n bagel thingie IS pretty good

Loaded with grease, but good. I REALLY like Arby's Fresh Market sandwiches, too. I'm sure they're no better for you than their regular sandwiches, but I can kid myself.

[Emops]

10. Pretty much anything from Chick-Fil-A

Especially the grilled chicken sandwich and Southwest chicken salad. Fortunately, they're both quite light on the fat and calories.

[bif]

11. Canned roast beef hash. And KFC chicken

Extra crispy.

[xmas74]

12. Fry up the hash and serve it with

fried eggs and toast, drowning in tobasco. Corned beef hash is good the same way.

[GalleryGod]

13. DENNY's "Grand Slam Meat Lover's Breakfast"

Not techincally fast food..but :shrug: who's checkin' ????

[dean_dem]

14. It's all about the Taco Bell.

Namely, the Spicy Chicken Burritos and 7-Layer Burritos. Mmmmmmmmm....

[xmas74]

16. I like the Border bowls

I haven't had one in awhile.

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

18. I like those too...

I always get the chicken bowl. I don't really think of that as a guilty pleasure though. It's a pretty decent, balanced meal.

[xmas74]

26. Yes, it is

but it is still fast food!

[fit4life]

15. KFC is my favorite

Sometimes I'll skip the chicken entirely and just get eight biscuits and a large gravy for lunch. :)

[loudestchick]

17. Sonic's chili cheese tots and a couple Tums.

[xmas74]

20. Add some jalapenos

and they taste fantastic.

[Jessica]

19. Arby's Beef & Cheddar ...

Haven't had it in soooo long, though. After seeing Super Size Me, I have boycotted fast food - with the one exception of Subway. :)

[IntravenousDemilo]

21. I'm not big on fast food, but my guilty pleasure is...

...that I can eat an entire jar of olives in one sitting, and I don't realize that I'm doing it till they're all gone. Green ones, black ones, Kalamata, hot-spiced, sun-dried -- even those washy California olives that don't taste like much of anything. It's like candy to me.

I suppose there are worse things.

[fishwax]

22. deep fried chicken strips from the deli counter

at the grocery store. Not fast food exactly, but I know it's not the healthiest meal I could choose :)

[AllegroRondo]

23. White Castle

I'll have a dozen with cheese, please.

[Beaverhausen]

24. Chicken Quesadilla at Baja Fresh

oh. my. god.

edited cause I can't spell quesadilla

[Balbus]

25. The tacos from Jack-in-the-Box.

Don't want to know what kind of meat-filling that is in there but it's sure tasty!!

[maveric]

27. Carne Asada Fries from the corner taco shop.

High in fat, carbs, bad cholesterol, sodium...probably about 6000calories per serving, but delicious.

[BlueHandDuo]

31. Wendy's Frosty...

...or anything from Del Taco.

[enigmatic]

32. New York Fries..

I've been on the low-carb thing for 18 months (and look and feel better then I ever have), but I get the New York Fries jones every so often and indulge:

[Telly Savalas]

33. Cinnabon.

God, those things are evil, but so yummy.

[u4ic]

34. A & W onion rings

haven't had them in a while, but they are yummy!

[LoZoccolo]

35. Culver's double bacon cheeseburger!

Also, there used to be a fast-food restaurant named Mr. Fables that had a good bacon burger deluxe - they'd put olives on the deluxe burger, that was real good.

[CBHagman]

36. Then and now.

I used to be crazy about the bacon cheeseburger pizza from Armand's, which I can't have anymore. I have my memories, though...

Now my favorites are chicken burritos, chicken kebabs, and various chicken dishes from the Chinese restaurants. Mmm...

[vixengrl]

38. Haven't had (chain) fast food in a long while.

I used to like--and this will sound super-boring but different strokes for different folks--a plain (no ketchup, no mustard, hold the pickles --nothing!) bacon cheeseburger and regular coffee every time I went into the Roy Rogers. There was something so greasy and plain about the food, it was just utterly perfect. The bacon was just chewy, the bun just moist, and the burger just a hint smoky. And the coffee was...just...coffee. Fast food zen.

My current guilty pleasure is coconut shrimp at the Chinese buffet place around the corner from me. I know it is *not* a health food, so I limit myself to three little shrimp--but the sauce is soooo sweet and thick I can't help having a taste.
