I mean, Whataburger is ok, and Sonic is ok, but Jack in the Box is absolutely disgusting...and there are a million of them around here... Lots of Church's too, and I've never had a good meal from there... Thankfully, In-N-Out is getting a foothold in the area... Sonic....worst burgers ever...and everything tastes like they threw it in a microwave and nuked it....I only eat the pretzel and cheese, popcorn chicken, and of course the drinks. Wife always gets a coney dog. Edited January 13, 2022 by dgambill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgambill Posted January 13, 2022 Report Share Posted January 13, 2022 Speaking of original topic...has KFC brought back a chicken sandwich? They had a decent one at one time...but then the double down fad thing happened and it seemed it destroyed their mojo and then the chicken sandwich was lost. I do like their famous bowl....something awful yet tasty about mashed potatoes, chicken, corn, and cheese all in a bowl....it's exactly what I do when I'm eating at home...just put it all in one pile on my plate and eat in one bite lol.

They opened up a new Popeyes a couple months back by us. My wife ordered me a spicy chicken sandwich on her way home one evening before the holidays. They screwed up and gave me a regular chicken sandwich, which was good, but I wanted SPICY damnit! I absolutely love their spicy chicken sandwich. I think it's very, very good. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean every Taco Bell/White Castle etc I've seen in local papers for hepatitis and worse...not many fast food places are clean of any of that type of history. My wife loves her some Chipotle and Taco Bell. The first time I had Chipotle was at a Farm Aid concert back in the day. They had a tent setup and it was really good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I really want to try one, but the other times I drove past they had crazy long lines because it is new. We did like their mac and cheese as well.

dgambill Posted January 13, 2022 Report Share Posted January 13, 2022 (edited) Hard to find but used to have an A&W Restaurant near me awhile back....they had nice burgers and the floats were epic.

I go nuggets at CFA. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I ever got a bad meal there in maybe 10-15 times we have eaten there, although it has been awhile as there currently aren't any too close. My 7 year old loves their food. One time he was at doctor's office and when he was done with appointment our doctor asked him if he had eaten lunch yet and my son answererd "no". So doctor says come with me young man. It just so happened the office had a catered lunch that day with Chick Fil A and he gave my son a huge plate of mac and cheese to take with him for lunch. The boy tore through that mac and cheese like it was the best thing ever. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been to Popeyes probably 60 times and have never had my order messed up lol I have had them tell me maybe 3 times their chicken was in the oven still and it would take 7-8 mins to get it done, honestly, not once have I had them mess my order up.
