We used to do that. My wife developed a pretty bad gluten sensitivity (not quite celiac) and nonspecific autoimmune disease, which ended that. Sucks because she loves Asian food. Fortunately PF offered some gf options, so that's usually what we'll do if we're in Knoxville and she wants Chinese.I prepare my own burgers at home.
If Dining out I eat Chinese most of the time.
Amazing how easy Chinese is to make at homeWe used to do that. My wife developed a pretty bad gluten sensitivity (not quite celiac) and nonspecific autoimmune disease, which ended that.

I’ve marked a couple of places off my list too. Taco Bell is ridiculous. Can eat at any of the actual Mexican restaurants cheaper. The local KFC (besides other reasons I won’t give them my business) is awful. After the second time I went there and they said “we are out of chicken” I haven’t been back. I really like Krystal burgers ( I know, I know) but I refuse to pay $20 for twelve of them.Not me. I've literally called a Hardees from the drive-through line, asked to speak to the manager and told them, "Look out the drive through window and you'll see me getting out of line and leaving. I've literally been in this line for 15 minutes and still haven't gotten to the window yet. Your business model is speed. You are fast food. You aren't healthy, cheap or tasty. When you become slow, you have exactly no benefit in my life."
When I got out of line, four cars behind me joined.
You're right. We as a culture enable it. But I'm not.
Note: IMHO, calling that manager and warning him about that was a kindness. He could take that to heart, make changes, and thrive.
Hate when it does that. It's CKC talking to "50/50" Austin Price in the Vol Club.
She describes her offense. They try to get the ball across half-court in 2 bounces. Look for the home run off a long pass a lot. If it's not there, get it to the wing and drive. A lot of different press defenses. She wants to let the players play.
I pick up at Kiko's in Seymour when my wife and I want Mexican. It is almost always <$20 for both of us and they give you free chips and salsa. Food is good, too. If we get drinks at taco bell with our meals, it is usually over $20.I’ve marked a couple of places off my list too. Taco Bell is ridiculous. Can eat at any of the actual Mexican restaurants cheaper.

Besides the financial reasons I won’t go, most of these fast food places are very poorly managed. Can’t find quality management willing to take on the responsibility for the salary offered. Cant find employees.
Technology and progress….it’s grand.
Honestly, TB is my go to fast food. I love the customizability using the app and I get the cheap stuff there. One of the few places I can eat for under $10. Sometimes can stretch it out to two or three meals.I pick up at Kiko's in Seymour when my wife and I want Mexican. It is almost always <$20 for both of us and they give you free chips and salsa.
