I think the ultimate recent flex to trash fast food HAS to be KFC.

They were literally like hold my beer and eat this fucking chicken sandwich in between two doughnuts.
fuckkk, I haven't had a famous bowl since college

Chipotle burrito bowls and chips and guac.

For burgers, Meatheads and Shake Shack. They blow McDonalds, Wendy's, Burger King out of the water. McDonalds still has the best fries though. You have to get them fresh though.

See this is where I questioned myself with Chipotle.... I'd argue Chipotle is bad for you, but still solid quality food.

Similar with Shake Shack.

Are they really trash food?

I understand Taco Bell being called trash food.... it is trash... it is awful for me and objectively outclassed by many other quality options, and yet sometimes damned be my bowels, all speed ahead on the Mexican pizza lol

I need to echo the McDonalds fries.... they are immortal at this point.... Burger King and Wendy's stepped up their fry game the last 10-15 years, but McDonalds always had good fries (when fresh).

Chipotle can actually be a healthy meal if you just go with chicken, rice, lettuce and salsa. But who wants that? We have one right by my gym and a lot of jacked dudes always go there and get double chicken bowls.

Total trash food and I almost forgot. Home Run Inn pizza. The crust has to be like 90% lard. It is so dense lol. The pizza itself is small enough you could easily eat it in one sitting but is like 3,000 calories, lol.

These are not healthy, but damn tasty.

We call them meatcakes, but I'm sure there is a fancier name.

A can of corned beef, mashed potatoes chilled, chopped onions, bit of salt and pepper. Mix together, make patties, dredge in flour with salt and pepper, and fry in butter. Dinner, or breakfast, they are cheap and easy.


Hmmm...breakfast with maybe an egg over it? Looks like I know what I'm having Sunday morning.

Philly cheesesteak pizza with alfredo sauce, pan crust, from Dominoes's. Filthy.

Meat mountain with curly fries on it from Arbies.

Steak and queso fajita style burrito, chimichanga style, from TBK

Double combo sub, with BLT sub with extra sub sauce from Mr. Subs.
You inspired me and I got the philly cheesesteak pizza tonight. Very solid!

Rough to beat a Baconator. And am I the only one that loves Wendy's fries? Like, honestly, McD's fries are way overrated, especially when you never get em fresh to begin with.

Alfredo gravy is pretty gross.

Biscuits and Gravy. So gosh dang good
I would say that isn't trash food, but there really isn't a definition of that either. That said, I looove biscuits and gravy. Right now I'm regretting not doing that for week 1 breakfast.

I would agree it isn't 'trash' but I would consider it a guilty pleasure

My white wife decided to sleep in instead of making me my game day brekkie biscuits n gravy. ****ing feminism and white wife privilege is converging to ruin my AMERICAN SUNDAYS.

Culvers cheese curds. They aren't great, but they're right here right now. Bag of those and a double butter burger garauntee I will be out for an hour nap though, can't take those in stride like I could in my 20s.
