Re: Favorite fast food
 
But in a place were there is no culture of "free refills" like Europe, and I guess, down under, I'd kind of expect a notification as most people, due to not being aware of any 'refill' culture what so ever, wouldn't be able to know.

I think I only ever learned about refills via these forums...

The only free drink I'm used to is tap water (glass or 1 liter jar/can) and some ice. Though some places even charge for that (too which, I as a former waiter/barender would object if it wasn't mentioned on the menu).

The same goes to anything that is presented to you, let's say if they place some stickbread on your table (as a starter), if it's simply placed on your table you can assume it's free or refuse to pay for it as they didn't mention it would cost you. But then I don't recall ever being given "free starters" or "free starters trap that aren't that free afterall", but I heard about it though (restaurant places some stickbread and herbs/garlic butter before you, you eat it, assume it's free and find it on the bill... ).

I googled a bit and apparantly the Subway here used to have free refills in most locations including the city that live nearby to (Leiden) but they stopped doing this as it was costed them too much (it was abused). If something is "free" we Dutchies are known to take advantage of it... I'd have to go and have a look, never set foot in a DUtch Subway in my life. I wonder if they (still) would have refills, if there would be some notification about it. There ain't anything concerning refills on the website... or wikipedia... so there isn't any way of knowing about this unless you just do... :uhm:

Hands down, I have to say mine is In'n'Out! :bows:

Love their sauce they put on their burgers.

Double double, animal style fries, and a shake. It's like hot lubed up sex with Jessica Alba, but in food form.

Epic, God-Like Galactic Win.

Arby's is so damn expensive. Like 6 bucks for 2 sandwiches.

I like a good Subway sandwich, and you cant beat a carne asada burrito from the corner taco shop. Got those everywhere in SoCal. Burrito is so damn good, just dont ever look inside the place.

Taco Bell is good too. And every now and then, some Panda Express.

Fast Food isn't food. Its processed crap on the go.

When you boil it all down, every other place is seriously lacking in the non-greasy food department. Although Chick-Fil-A has some pretty rockin' nuggets and waffle fries.

Five Guys is good as well and the food came pretty quick, so it's sort of fast food. No In n' Out in FL either.

Why are french fries called "chips"?
