this is an old topic from before the crash. while i mull over where i'm going to go to eat tonight, i thought i'd revive this.

to some, my eating habits don't seem healthy. i eat my fair share of fast food. at the very least once a week. this is facilitated by my location. i live right off a major street, so i got just about everything at my disposal. in fact, i live two and a half blocks away from a McDonalds. it's a miracle i'm not overweight. in fact, i'm probably underweight.

to the point, how frequently do you eat at fast food places? McDonalds, Burger King, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, Subway, etc. getting coffee or ice cream or whatever from those places doesn't count.

Eating at one of those for me is rather rare, as I rarely leave my home lately, and when I come back from my Jap classes I usually come straight back thanks to a friend and neighbor giving me a ride. So I'd say around twice a month, or maybe even less. The times I do go though, I try to make it either a Burger King (damn onion rings are AWESOME) or Taco Bell (I love Mexican).

uhm...once every two weeks or so I usually go to Burger King. Yeah, I'm underweight too. I guess I've always had this metabolism, so unless i [tornado fang] up badly I'm not getting fat anytime soon.

I guess there aren't that many fast food restaurants over here. In fact, I still have to find a Taco Bell or a Starbucks in this island.

Even before my lovely Crohn's Disease, I had pretty much given up on eating at those places.  Before, the most I would ever get would be a Spicy Chicken Sammich at Wendy's and some Nuggets.

However, nowadays I have different type of, what I call "Fast Food".  Teriyaki Boy is a Manhattan Japanese Fast Food place, in which I get a Chicken Teriyaki Bowl or something like that for cheap.  It's quick, cheap, filling, and damn delicious.  But, the best example of Fast Food for me are the $2 Taco people outside of 74th & Roosevelt.  That's the best Fast Food there is.  Cheap & delicious.

I've given up on burgers since getting IBS, so I don't eat at fast food places too much anymore.  In the event that I do, it's usually for lunch when I'm out getting groceries, and I usually request to eat at Long John Silver's as the grease doesn't aggrivate my gut as much.  If I can't go there, I usually go to Wendy's and order a chicken sandwich.  If I have to eat at McDonald's, I usually get a Fillet-O-Fish. 

Other times when I eat at a fast food place, it's not even a fast food resturant.  I usually frequent Sheetz gas stations.  My usual order?  A steak and cheese 6-inch sub and a drink.  No sides.  The last one-quarter of the sandwich usually ends up as a treat for my dog.

I go to McDonalds every week.

I'm such a typical american.

I used to have KFC every week... >_>
Now, I seldom eat it...

McDonalds is a different story.
Everytime my family goes shopping, a Mac is always nearby for a little rest/snacking.

just remember you dont have to be fat to be unhealthy

I eat there occasionally, they arent too terrible if you know what to order, but lately its just so expensive its not even worth it anymore.

Too often.

I love Subway though and personally think it doesn't count. I eat too healthy there. XD

Jack-In-The-Box has the delicious [tornado fang]ing hot sauce/taco sauce so I like eating there.

Wendy's is King with their Chili and Baconator.

God... I'm never gonna reach my appropriate weight. D:

It would help if I didn't live with a bunch of fatties. *snorts*

[chameleon sting]ing this. Their fries alone make sure that I'll never walk away from high blood pressure without going cold turkey. XD

Then there's Burger King and their awesome breakfast. The Croissanwich, in all 19 years of life that I've had it, is still hot sex. I mean, it's a warm Croissant with Eggs, Bacon or Sausage (or both if you're feeling extra fatty that day) and cheese, served hot with hash browns... XD

Still though, with how infrequently I eat fast food lately, and my growing need to walk everywhere, I guess I'm ot doing too badly with keeping healthy...

And Goddammit, this post makes me want tomorrow morning to come faster so I can get a Croissanwich. XD

Trust me, at least you're not in heat for an Amaretto-flavored ice cream. I am, and the season's already over, since Amaretto's a traditional drink only for Christmas here.

Hmmm while I ain't a big fan of eating out.   I guess Subway and any kind of asian food like Sushi or chinese take-out.

Well, if ice cream from McDonald's doesn't count, then my answer is 'never'.

I pretty much gave up on fast food, and lost about 140 pounds because of it. 'Sides I like cooking my own meals.
