New fast food discussion/review thread
OK OOT, it's been a while since we had a devoted fast food thread around here and I think it's time we had a new one.

I know may be a semi-unpopular opinion, but I really like Chipotle's barbacoa. I very rarely go to Chipotle, but if I do that's what I'm getting. Now if I could just convince them to give me a bowl that's at least 80% barbacoa...
it's super hit or miss. sometimes it's excellent but it can also be rubbery or burnt.
I used the 50% off menu at my Domino's yesterday, walked home a pan pizza, ham and asiago, $6.99 + tax. Not a bad deal here in the strange world of 2024 ff, still it's chain pizza etc.
it's obv not on the same level as elite pizza but gotta say their pan pizza is pretty tasty and way better than you'd expect a chain pizza to be.
2 Dave's Singles and Double for 9.62 not bad not bad.

Used to have the same opinion, but the last one I got was the worst chain pizza I've had in at least ten years. It was awful. Now if I'm getting Dominos I'm getting either thin or NY style to minimize the crust.
Did wendys $5 bag with jr bacon cheese and a free crispy chicken ($1.89 retail).
Not sure if its me but the beef ratio on the jbc was lacking. I was missing that magic combination of mayo bacon lettuce and the rest. I'm going to officially lay the JBS biggie bag to rest, RIP.
1/10 pound patty?
Luckily the crispy chicken wasn't that bad! Certainly better than bk's value chik sando offerings, and maybe 80% as good as a mcchicken. If they had been more liberal with the mayo the score would lean more to even. It actually a decently thick patty.

2 for $6 Dave Singles and a double stack, not a Dave's double

Hamboigers!
I bought the saucy nugs the same day jawhoo did and even took a picture to post the disappointment in the lack of sauce on them and like usual forgot to post it. Both of my containers look like the one in the top left of his photo. Nugs themselves weren't saucy at all and nothing really on the bottom of the container to dip them in either. The other two on top in that photo look fine. Got the spicy garlic parm and spicy ghost pepper and also concur that the ghost pepper was the better of the two.

Had one of their limited time burgers, it was fairly thick.
Took my 4 beefs and made two doubles without bottom buns. Couldn’t even get into the 5th beef. Sad
Unsaucy nuggs and wings piss me off. It's not an accident, you have to deliberately make them dry.
Carl's Jr advertising teriyaki chicken and burger. That chicken sammich looks pretty sporty with the pineapple hunk and all.
My Arby's turned off online ordering. Rip 5 for $5
I audibled to the Costco food court.
