I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Dairy Queen. They make a pretty solid burger in addition to all the ice cream.
Especially if you go for lunch.

Some sort of meat (burger, chicken strips, etc.), fries, drink and a sundae for $5 has to be up there for best fast food value for your buck.

Casey's pizza

I also love Chipotle, but if you are near one, I recommend checking out Freebirds. I think they are in CA, TX, KS. They have different size burritos and a lot more options in terms of tortillas and ingredients.

Problems with Chipotle

1. They don't mix their toppings
2. No queso
3. They hate farmers

These are all reasons why they suck.

Pancheros is sooooo overrated. Give me Qdoba then, very closely behind, Chipolte then something out of a trashcan then Pancheros.

This is just not right. I can understand people thinking Chipotle is better than Pancheros because typically they aren't from Iowa, but Qdoba is just bad.

4. When people pronounce the l before the t, ie. Chipolte

as for you're problems:
1. I hate the look I get if I ask them to do this, like I'm insulting them personally... no dude I just want a little of everything in each bite.
2. No kidding, get some queso already.
3. You'll have to explain for me.


I will say, I still love Chipotle immensely.

1. That place sucks so bad it's not worth me pronouncing it right
2. They have spoken out against livestock farmers in the past and creating videos that make farmers look like terrible people. Basically they have done what PETA does.

Had a Freebirds open up near the office about a year ago. Tried it with a couple coworkers. We all preferred Chipotle and haven't been back to Freebirds since.

Chipotle's salsas were better, but otherwise I have had better luck at Freebirds. I had a few times in a row where I got some really fatty meat at Chipotle, so I decided to branch out. Whichever I'm closer to is more likely to get my business. <shrug> I like 'em both.

If you could have a Pancheros tortilla with Chipotle's meat and fillings you'd really be onto something.

You know what burrito place sucks? Bandit Burrito I tried it once and it was terrible. I'd rather walk to Pancheros or Chipotle before eating that again.
