    Do you eat it? If so, which places? What's your guilty pleasure?

    I used to eat McD fries like crack, but I've managed to wean myself off of them and don't even really want them any more. I still love an occasional Big Mac, though!

    Doing Weight Watchers means there is no friendly fast-food, but I do like to occasionally splurge on a Chick-Fil-A sandwich or a Wendy's Baja Salad.

    Chick-Fil-A is my splurge, too. I try to get the grilled sandwich so occasionally I can eat the fries!

    We've been eating way too much of it lately!! Too much = once a week! Blech.

    Our family loves Wendy's, kids like McD's and I have a sweet spot for A&W. I wish we had a Hardee's here in Canada.

    My all-time favorite though, is Qdoba Mexican Grill. We don't have one here, but when we drive down to ND we always buy extra burritos to bring home with us.

    The only fast food I ever crave are Portillo's hotdogs. I so don't know what I'm going to do if we ever move away from Chicago.

    We try not to eat in fast food restaurants too often but when we do it's usually McD's.

    I love fast food. I really love Wendy's spicy chicken sandwich and I'm with Rhonda on their new fries yummy! Now, since I'm also on Weight Watchers, I haven't had fast food except once since January 1st. It also goes hand in hand with trying to not spending so much money on eating out. I will run the boys through McDs for double cheeseburgers in a pinch, but even then it's not very often.

    We very rarely do fast food other than on road trips. Regardless, it's usually McD's when we do. Can't say I have any particular favorites from there, but I do really like most of their menu. :)

    We've been living on the stuff lately.

    KFC is my guilty pleasure. ((Heart attack warning)) I love getting their potato wedges and dipping them in their mashed potatoes with gravy.

    We rarely eat fast food (too much of a hassle with allergies and general pickiness), but I love Wendy's new cheeseburgers and fries. My favorite kind of 'fast food' is not really fast food-y, per se, as I love a good sandwich from Jimmy John's, Panera, Paradise Bakery, etc.

    I'm trying to avoid fast food. I have a weakness for Wendy's so I'm glad there isn't one on my daily route anymore!

    Not too often, but this is how I feel about it.

    McDonalds & Taco Bell= gross
    Arbys & KFC= doable
    Wendys & Chick-fil-a= yummy

    We used to have Fazoli's here which was my FAVORITE but sadly they closed :(

    I'm not a big fast food fan. If it's absolutely necessary I try to aim for Subway or Quiznos.
    I will eat the salads at Wendy's and my guilty pleasures are Blizzards at DQ and the oreo
    Frosty's at Wendy's - but I try not to get them too often, otherwise my clothes won't fit, haha!

    Kenzie loves McDonalds, Burger King and Wendy's. Out of those, I would go for Burger King. Hubby loves Chik fil A, KFC/Taco Bell(yuk) and Jack in the Box. We do it a few times a week I guess. Bad...

    Yay - I LOVE fast food. My favorites are McDonalds and Taco Bell. WISH we had a fazoli's closer, because that would be my other favorite!

    I don't eat a ton of it because I'm vegetarian, but I eat a lot of Taco Tico. My kiddos love Wendy's - they love the burgers, chicken wraps, chicken sandwiches, the fries, the frosties, lol. We only get stuff off the dollar menu though. :)
