For those who do not understand why some people dislike or avoid going to KFC, I present the following picture, as well as a personal anecdote:

Anecdote: When I was in 9th grade, my family and some family friends stopped at a KFC during a short road trip. We ordered our food and, upon biting into it, were met with completely raw chicken. I'm not entirely too sure how this happened since it was fairly crispy on the outside, but the entire inside was completely and utterly raw. This is one of the reasons I do not go to KFC, as well as my dislike of fried chicken in general (partially stemming from this experience).

There is a place in my city called Matador. I have explained this in a previous thread, but it is essentially Chipotle on steroids. The food is delicious, as well as completely local, and the prices are on par with Chipotle and Qdoba, despite the portions being much larger. They have a wider selection and they serve beer, which is a selling point even if I don't drink beer. It's perhaps the greatest fast food place I have ever been to for burritos, tacos, or quesadillas.

For burgers, In-n-Out is the king, with Five Guys serving as the prince. The rest of them are court jesters, with McDonald's and Burger King being that dude who cleaned out the troutter.
