So I ate McDonald's for the first time in thirteen years today

Not as bad as I remember, but nothing resembling good either.

Looks like I'm gonna start a new streak now, and shoot for fourteen years!

I went years without eating there as well, something like 8. When I broke my streak and went there about 4 years ago now, it did seem a lot better than I remember it as well, but I stayed away from their hamburgers.

Also, it wasn't my choice. I was with my trainer and he wanted to stop for food and that's the first thing he saw, and we only had time for the drive thru so I couldn't go to the Wendy's or Del Taco next door

Yeah, when I went I was going to a concert with a friend, and we were in a part of town I didn't know very well at the time, we were pretty late for getting to the show, and we were starving.

He suggested it, and I couldn't see anything else in the nearby area. So, I went.

I love fast food, and always will.

I like Jimboy's and In-N-Out, but apart from that, it's usually just that I tolerate it and give in for the sake of price and convenience.

any body eaten at a Five Guys? Hear good things about them, but I'd have to drive 20-30 min to get to one...

There's one about twenty minutes from me, and another about forty minutes away. Some friends and I went to the one that was twenty minutes away because it was right next to a movie theater and we wanted to see Paul and try the infamous Five Guys. Our opinions, broken down:

Me - Fries are better, burger's equal. Overall, prefer In-N-Out for the amount of closer locations and the price being literally half of what you'd spent at a Five Guys.

Friend 1 - Likes everything better, doesn't care about spending the extra dollars, but only that there's just the two locations and they're too far.

Friend 2 - Likes In-N-Out better for everything.

It is finally a worthy regional contender for In-N-Out, I say. Everybody I knew in the South/East Coast swore by Whataburger and that place is an absolute pile of shit. Five Guys is actually good. Though technically, they should be disqualified in this regional battle since they're obviously not limited to one region anymore lol.

Never been to an In-N-Out, but the one time I had Five Guys it was quite good. Fries were the definite highlight.

I know five guys is supposed to be trans fat free or some ish. Is in n out trans fat free? I have one near by, but I don't eat fast food anymore

They are building one near by, I'll prolly try it out.

I went to McDonalds a couple years ago. I think I had a coupon for something there and decided to try it. Don't remember what it was though.

Five Guys rules, but it's like the greasiest thing ever. Small Fries is pretty much filled all the way to the top of your bag too, so you're getting a lot of food.

I've never been to In-N-Out but I want to go to one pretty badly. Five Guys is good though. I eat a shitload of food every time I go though and take massive pewps afterward.

Five Guys is pretty good. I'm not a fast food guy at all though. I can't even remember the last time I ate some.

Five Guys is good but pricey. They do give you a assload of fries so I guess that justifies the price.

I like to try a In & Out someday when I'm next far west.

I do Mickey D's once a week or two, did them today. I typically only do them when I'm on the road on work days.

I don't think we have In-N-Out or Five Guys in Canada.

In and out will never make it out far east, unless they change their policy.

As it stands now, they never freeze their meat, and so they only will open places that they can drive to within one day of producing it. All of their meat is produced in southern california.

Looking at some articles, it looks like they're planning on opening some in Dallas, but they say they'll have to open a new meat processing plant to do it.

Well I live on the west coast so I guess that means I still have hope.

Oh, I forgot about their other company policy, they hate Canadians.

well I guess that means I'll just have to stick to Subway.

McDonald's In-N-Out Five Guys.

What's wrong with Subway?

Subway's good, and you can't really complain for the price. They also have much higher quality ingredients, it seems, than they did 15-20 years ago.

Since I live in a college town, though, they're endless amounts of better sandwich shops around. Oddly enough, the Subway that the famed Jared ate at and lost all of the weight at is right down the street from where I work.
