Culvers is the best fast food restaurant

I've got a Smashburger and a 5 Guys across the street from the office. 5 Guys is in my regular rotation, and I don't remember the last time I went to Smash. 5 Guys is great, but it doesn't meet the drive through requirement here.

I guess for the purpose of this thread, I'm pretty big on Sonic these days. I really like their food. That said, the service is horrible. The food can take quite a while, and I think they get my order wrong almost half the time. Not a huge deal for me because I will eat pretty much anything they have, but the wife is a little pickier. Is this just my location, or is this an issue across all Sonics?

I'm not allergic to eggs or whatever is in those things. I'm allergic to a colorless preservative that is used in those things.

Saving the best for last, I like the way you think.

I cannot think of a universe where ketchup is better than ranch. Ketchup is best when combined with ranch to make "ranchup."

Oh, man, that's terrible. So, if you made your own ranch with just buttermilk and some seasonings, would you be okay? YOU NEED RANCH TO LIVE. I might have read that in the Koran.

Close, it's in the bible. "Yea, though I walk through the Hidden Valley..." Something like that I think.

That's right, how could I forget that? I think we read that verse at barbecues.

I've learned to live without those things, so I am not too worried. I do have to check if things in restaurants have them though. I am very allergic. Even when my (now ex) gf was eating ranch and carrots, I gave her a peck on the lips and my lips turned numb.

I walk through the valley of darkness though I fear no evil. Clearly a reference to bbq sauce.

The problem with Culvers' and Sonic's cheeseballs is that each place has TERRIBLE ranch. Hit up the Ames Dairy Queens, they make their own ranch and it is amazing. Bad ranch can ruin a great cheeseball.

I cannot express the level of my distaste for Runza.

That is why honey mustard is the best dressing!

For those bagging on Runza...yes, I can see your point about the runzas. But I would grade their burgers above average. (average = McD's, BK, Wendys) Plus, crinkle fries!

About Sonic...ours here is pretty good about getting the order right, it's just remembering to give me honey mustard when I order popcorn chicken. (FYI: $1 chili cheese and all-american hot dogs all day tomorrow)

Mmmm....Whataburger. They've now become the "frustrating" commercial to watch during Big 12 programming since there's not easy access to it. That title used to belong to Sonic, at least when I lived in Omaha.

1.Ketchup
2.Spicy mustard (horseradish like the Beer n Brat mustard by silver spring or a southwest mustard like Koops arizona heat)
3.Ranch
4. Honey Mustard (though whatever they use at perkins = amazingness with a chicken tender melt)
5. BBQ
99. plain old yellow mustard.

How can one post cause so many emotions? You start off with the worst substance ever created by man as your number one but then follow it up with the greatest mustard ever. I love/hate this post.

All sauces of the same type are not created equal. For instance, Heinz ketchup is what I assume Jesus put on his french fries, but if you try to slide Hunts in front of me I'll spit in your face. Blood will be shed if any type of catsup enters the picture. Ranch and barbecue sauce suffer from the same volatility.
