I was inspired by this video to create my own fast food tier list. Anyone that knows me knows that I am pretty obsessed with food. However, I'm proud to say that I am in no way a 'foodie'. Although I am generally pretty healthy, have a good diet, often cook from scratch and enjoy the odd sophisticated meal; I also unashamedly love fast food. Here is my personal opinion fast food tier list:
I will talk you through my list from bottom to top.
D - Subway - Below average sandwiches that are genuinely worse than anything you could easily make for yourself at home.
C - Wendy's - I have only ever eaten here about 3 times as there doesn't seem to be many of them in the UK (are there any left?). Generally, I found their burger concepts to just be a bit odd.
B - McDonald's - McDonald's don't make the best burgers in the world but I do think that they are very distinctive which gives them a certain nostalgia. Their vanilla milkshakes are still one of my personal favourites.
- Pizza Hut - You can't beat a Pizza Hut lunch buffet. They still do a thin crust better than the other pizza restaurants on this list.
- Papa John's - Narrowly misses out on my favourite takeaway pizza chain to Domino's. Excellent sauces.
- Burger King - Overall, they do a pretty good burger, my personal favourite being the traditional Whopper. The only reason they aren't higher is because of their occasional tendency to completely mess up an order.
A - KFC - I've read online about the falling standards of KFC since it's heyday. However, I never ate there as a child, largely due to growing up in the countryside and not having one nearby and being a vegetarian for a number of years. Therefore, I can only judge it on its current merits. For me, they do the best chicken burgers and the fried chicken is still pretty good 98% of the time.
- Domino's Pizza - In my humble opinion, Domino's do the best takeaway pizza.
S - Five Guys - For me, Five Guys is the god tier of fast food. Their burgers are the best takeaway beef burgers I have ever eaten, their fries are amazing and their hot dogs are well worth discovering if you've never tried one. The most common criticism I hear is that it is overpriced and, yes, it is. However, as far as fast food chains go, it is still above the rest in terms of taste and quality.
Anyway, what would your fast food tier list be?
