The Fast Food Question

Every time me and my sisters go out to the mall we would always debate on what food to eat. It would always be a battle of taste, size and appetite. It take us an hour before we can decide an arrangement and agreement where we will eat, in case that the first choice fast food chain has a lot of people inside, we would go to the next choice.
In the office, if someone wants to eat pizza, we would all agree and order. The only problem is that we always eat the same toppings which sometimes makes me sick. The first time I worked and treated for food, we ate Shakeys, at first it was fun, but later I got sick and tired of eating it because of the flavor. One time when my friend wanted to eat pizza, I told him to order different flavor because the pepperoni and hawaiian made me sick, so he ordered other flavors which was good because of the change of flavor.
A lot of times people do not know what to eat that results to some minutes of decision on where and what to eat then later on there will be a final decision. Me and my friends would take hours before we can decide. Though there were times we had argument, but a healthy argument.
Here is the following of which I prefer to eat:
Sandwich - Subway (1) / Sandwich Guy (2)
Hamburger - Wendys (1) / Buger King (2) / Mcdo (3)
Fried - Wendys (1) / Burger King (2)
Chicken - KFC (1) / Jollibee (2)
Pizza - Yellow Cab
When I don't have much I prefer the ones with buy 1 take 1 (Angels Burger) or if I am so low in budget, a chicken sandwich and a water in the cafeteria is enough for me.
So, here is the Fast Food Question:
With all the fast food chains in the Philippines, and you get to pick only 1 place to eat for the day where will you eat and why?

i can't see it anymore on their menu on the top of their cashier but they have a lot of chowpan now. I wanna know how they cook their bagoong,i really like the taste. I wanna experience to eat in chickboy but i keep on thinking if the caterpillar scandal is true..Do you know about that?Do you think it's true?

Their Chowpan is just plain fried rice to me.. but I like their Noodle meals except the one with siomai on it. My mom said they add some flavoring to the bagoong, I forgot what the ingredient though.
They say chickboy's food is much tastier than Mang Inasal, though I have not tried it myself and I heard about that scandal. I suggest you try eating it somewhere in a mall so that you can easilt complain about it. Because some fast food chains don't the damn care about their sanitary policy.

I love pizza and pasta so I prefer eating either at Greenwhich, Pizza Hut or Yellow Cab. But I always choose vegetarian pizzas to avoid too much cholesterol. None of the fastfoods that serve chicken delights me. All their chicken taste greasy to me. Yes they are tasty but after eating I always feel guilty because I know they are loaded with additives and filled with cholesterol. This is the reason why I don't really enjoy fastfood. If I like chicken I'd rather just roast one at home.

I'd prefer the buffet places like Golden Caroul. Some people think its too much food because of the phrase "all you can eat" but its up to the consumer to use moderation. Anyway I like it because if you need healthy foods, there is so much more to choose from.

haha, well my friend. we do have the same type of taste . 2 thumbs up with that ! :)
But with your problem, if you want to avoid the DEBATE between you and your sister in terms of what food to buy or to eat , why don't you go to BUFFET restaurants, eat all you can restaurants that serves good and quality food. I'm sure, no debate will be happening, cuz both of you are eating sumptuously :)))

The only problem we had that time was money... Eat All You Can makes our wallets go bye bye but eating there is worth it..

If I'm in the shopping mall, I will definetely go to the foodcourt beacause I will have more choices and I will get rice with meat and prefably with some veggies as well! If I have to pick only one place (fastfood chain) to eat for the day, I will pick Jollibee, I like their chicken and spaggetti and I reckon I can eat that all day, LOL!

It will be KFC for me. They have lots of choices on foods, and in one day, i am sure i will not be repeating my orders, but will have a great time eating there.
I love their Fried Chicken - Spicy . I also love their Krushers ! I love all their burgers .

Eating at a fast food restaurant has its advantages - it is fast and the price is usually affordable. The few things I hate about them is their serving size, the people during the rush hour and sometimes, the lack of choices.
I have only been to the popular fast food becuase I don;t live in the Metro. I also share your sentiments regarding decision-making when ti comes to where to eat. My sibling usually gets to choose while I usually go with the flow.
If I;m stuck with a fast food resto right now, it'll be in Pizza Hut, the one with the singing cooks (I don;t know if there are still singing) or Max. I' not a fan of their price range but at least they offer a variety of choices. I won't get bored with the food so easily, though it would cost me a pretty penny in the process.

It makes me so hungry reading this discussion. I prefer either the three which are McDo, Chowking and Mang Inasal. As for McDonald's, the price is right. They have the McSaver Meals. With Chowking I love their luriat combination plus their halo-halo. Lastly, Mang Inasal offers unlimited rice and now coke.

I don't go for high calorie food but the kids love KFC so if and when I have to treat them on a day out, I always make it a point to order the vegetable salad. The kids love the chicken with lots of gravy but I am not particularly fond of fried chicken. And before I forget,I also like the KFC mushroom soup. One serving of the salad and the mushroom soup is just fine with me. I don't like burgers either or pizza or spaghetti. Just something simple and nutritious to eat is enough.
