    Ever miss a meal and you just have to go out to get something but you're not sure just what to get? I sometimes wait until I see a fast food commercial advertising the newest latest and greatest creation of some franchise or another - then bolt out to give it a try.

    Maybe we can start a thread that will provide reviews or previews to the newest fast food phenomena!?

    I'll start: http://www.kfc.com/doubledown - can't wait to try this!!! KFC double down! meat and cheese and nothing else!

    The new burgers at burger king are pretty decent as far as fast food burgers go. Still not as good as sonic but easier to find a bk around.

    Me and 2 friends played a little game when we were out in Colorado recently.

    My losing friend had to eat this.

    The infamous tripple Baconator.

    McDonald's Angus burgers are pretty good. Not quite on par with Culver's but pretty close. This is usually what I order if I have to stop at MickyD's

    You're gonna be boycotting for a looooong time then.

    I don't think they have any plans of franchising... would be kickass tho.

    The Wendy's bacon blue burger is pretty delicious. It needs more bun tho. The thin bun it comes on gets soggy with all the salty, fatty, goodness.

    I like the angus burger. I don't really think it's worth more than a big mac though.

    The baconater at wendy's is good, but I think each one cuts a year off my life.

    My other favorites include chipotle and chalupas at taco bell.

    Also, I hate culvers.

    Yeah I have been there a couple times. It's alright but for the money I'd rather go some place better. Their dill pickle what not fries have way to much seasoning to the point that they are hard to eat. It's been a while since I have been there but if I remember correct it was around or over 10$ for burger, fries, and a pop.

    It's worth a try. It's really fatty and really salty, even for me lol

    I get a 1/2lb create your own with bacon, blue cheese, mushrooms, lettuce, and tomato on an egg bun.

    Their fries and onion fries are meh.

    Yeah, I liked it, but I can think of at least 6 other places I'd rather get a burger... at least 1 of those being a fast food joint.

    My little stoner brother claims that he came up with the "Ghetto Mac". I quit eating fast food for my new years resolution but if i were to eat anything it would be one of these. they really are amazing.

    go to Mcdonalds. get a double cheeseburger. hold the ketchup and mustard. add mac sauce and shredded lettuce. enjoy.

    Boca Chica's Taco House on the West Side of St. Paul...SUPER BOMB! Pretty much the only fast food I can really eat. I'd barf if I tried to eat any other fast food now.

    Happy Cinco de Mayo!!!
