Yes, those places are all just slightly above dog food .. actually, my dog eats better than that .
Not to rehash old threads, but i think we’ve established that the ultimate (and one of the cheapest) fast food burger is In n Out.. even Whataburger, which i find vastly overrated, is better than the places you mentioned.. i think you said before that you’d never tried those, but did you ever get a chance to try Five Guys ? I think they have one of the better fast food burgers, but my problem with Five Guys is that the price is literally triple the cost of the places you mentioned.. i think theyve pretty much priced themselves out of the ‘fast food’ category, , though they are most definitely a huge national (international ?) chain .
