Every In-N-Out is owned by the same SoCal family – no franchises – with ONE twenty-something heiress!!! I think the furthest East they exist is Utah. If it makes you feel any better, I have NEVER been to a Chick-Fil-A. I hear I’m missing out something fierce!

I would eat waffle fries with just about any meal. Even chocolate dessert waffle fries sound good.

I’m a big In-n-Out fan. Haven’t been to one in yeeeears. When are they going to start evangelizing to us Right Coasters?

Ooo, that chocolate dessert pizza was pretty scrumptious. The powdered sugar was especially tasty when it went up your nose as you inhaled before a bite.

We’ve yet to fall into sushi, but I’ve been whispering in CM’s ear that we should try it.

I googled Maccas and found that that’s what Aussies call McD’s. I thought you were talking about a Middle Eastern chain or something.

BK can be yummy, but I’ve been turned off by them as they’ve been late to turn away from trans fat, at least the last time I checked. Clearly, patrons of BK may not be worried about trans fat, but the stuff seems pretty nasty.

Chick Fil A!!!
To be honest, I’m so sick of Subway. I’ve eaten there so much throughout my lifetime it’s become monotonous. Besides, I don’t really eat any fast food otherwise, so waffle fries win. They are SOOOOOO GOOD.

In-N-Out. No question. Variety = Zero. But what they do, they do superbly. I don’t eat fast food very often, so that lack of variety doesn’t bother me much as I wouldn’t be there too frequently. Wonderful quality, amazing customer service, fresh cut fries (you can watch them turn potatoes into your fries, people!!!), Bible verses on the bottom of your cups, AND paper hats? What more could you want? (On a side note, if there were a sushi fast food place here in Cali, I would be all over that! Another reason I need to visit Australia!)

I really wanted to come up with something clever, so that all of you would say, “Oh yeah, I totally agree with Robert instead of Eric!” However, I think you nailed it, CD. Whether stand-alone or one of those back-of-the-gas-station varieties, you’re ensured a decent meal at Subway. I will say that you can also get some mileage from the $3.99 Hungry Howie’s pizza buffet. Nothing quite like that dessert pizza (chocolate pudding on pizza crust, topped with a dusting of powdered sugar). Mmm, good!

Here in Oz, we’re blessed with sushi chains…so, that would be my fast food choice for life. No contest.

However, faced with the more normal choices, then I would have to agree with Subway – though my wife hates it passionately. Maccas has a good range of healthy options down here too, and free wi-fi…so it might win out. In fact, we now visit there quite regularly, which freaks me out a bit as I never did Maccas at any time in my life. Thinking of McDonalds and healthy just feels wrong…haha
