Re: Current Favorite "Fast Food"

@Oznell

 

 

Can't even remember the last time I ate any "fast food", but I did have a bowl of "regular oatmeal" this morning. I say this because in our new microwave it takes only a bit over 2 minutes, and that's fast.

 

Not many, if any, people eat the way I do. My wife will verify that along with "he's nuts", I hear that often. Fast food, even spending money to eat out, is a very rare thing to me. Sure, I am a frugal(some say cheap) person, always have been, but my choice to eat at home has little to do with money spent. Heck, my wife eats out 2-3-4, or more times a week.

@dex, I agree.  Love those.  I don't know if you have an Instant Pot, but if so there are recipes out there for those egg bites.  I haven't tried it yet but plan to.

Culvers. But we don’t eat out that often. If we are lucky maybe once a week.

I've only been a few times to ChickFil-A (5 min. from my house) and I always order the crispy chicken. Their shakes are also very good. Their potatoes are always cold.

I don't eat any fast food.  I on rare occasion will get a salad with turkey breast on it from Panera.  

 

I used to occasionally eat Subway's chopped salads, but I think their turkey may have nitrates in it.  I don't eat nitrates.

LOL

 

It's not that I"m so frugal, lol, it's that I'm so picky.  I won't eat anything fried and dislike so many items that are "heavy".  I mainly eat protein and vegetables, and one can't find that too easily at fast food restaurants unless they are laden with fats, etc.

 

My husband is a bit like you.  He mainly eats out only when we go out together.

Re: Current Favorite "Fast Food"

Every few months, my husband gets a craving for Captain D’s Fish, and I get a craving for KFC original chicken or chicken livers.   We both like beef taco salads from Taco Bell, Arby’s classic roast beef, and slaw dogs from DQ.   Anytime my husband has an early blood draw at the VA, we head to IHOP for breakfast.
