I like Subway. Quick, you see them making your sandwich, and they have a $5 footlong. My favorite thing to get is the Veggie Delight sub.

I'm stretching this one to Breakfast Food!

Krispy Kreme for sure!

So sweet when they touch the lips :)

I like Subway and Krispy Kreme, but for fast food I like Jack in the Box. There is not too much sauce in the Jumbo Jack and their onion rings are to die for. Their fries are close to MacD's in quality. Excellent shakes.

I like Wendy's because their food doesn't taste as fake as some others... Subway is good too! I usually get their meatball marinara!

I'm not lucky enough to have a Red Robin or Sonic near me. And some restaurants, like Taco Bell (which I love) don't have too many options for someone who can't eat grains, so I'll go with Arby's.

They have great sandwiches in a number of styles, from regular to deli to wraps and subs, any of which can be made bunless; their sides go beyond fries with things like mozzarella sticks and jalapeño poppers; they have a good variety of sandwiches; their pies and jamocha shakes are good. There is a lot there, whether you're doing a Standard American Diet (way of eating), or a low fat, or a low carb/diabetic.

Their bathrooms and facilities are clean, and like McDonald's, they seem to understand that families with kids need a few extra napkins and plain water sometimes!

My other favorite, although it's a bit expensive for fast food, is Jimmy John's. It's like Subway on steroids. All kinds of great sandwiches in three sizes; "Unwiches" (lettuce wraps) for those who can't eat grains; things like sprouts, avocado, premium meats, AND they deliver! When you order more than one, the first one is usually done before you've finished paying. And all the fun and philosophical signs on the wall make it an interesting place to eat.

Chipotle.

It's hard to find a good burrito in the mainstream restaurant world, especially one as as absolutely postutely stacked as the ones Chipotle serves. I've had burritos there with 3-inch diameters! Though their burritos definitely pack a caloric punch, there is great variety and all the ingredients are fresh.

The atmosphere is also nice. The company doesn't fight existing architecture when establishing new franchises and the new buildings they do erect have a clean, modern feel to them. It looks more upscale than a simple fast food joint, yet the brickwork also makes it homey.

And let's face it, their website is just fun to play with: http://www.chipotle.com/

Papa Murphy's Pizza - Best pizza chain in America - I concur
though not as fast as typical fast food, being it is take n bake, but never the less - Best freshly concocted pizza pie fast food EVER!

I personally favor the Gourmet Chicken garlic, Gourmet Vegitarian, deLITE veggie
and next time, I might try a vegetarian calzone.
