Honestly, I'd choose healthy food over fast food these days. Fast food just makes me feel sick afterwards because of all the grease and god knows what in the food. I find myself heading to the salad bar more often during my lunch break.

I think its okay to have junk food / fast food once in a while if i get lazy or too busy to cook, burger king here is more expensive and better compared to mcdonalds. Healthy food is ok i guess i mean im not too picky with food

While, indeed, fast foods taste absolutely amazing... at times, but, that is often because they are constructed to do so. Obviously, there is the central culprit: Money. And the reason they can be so effective is in the name: fast-foods. They are constructed mindlessly by workers who have been conditioned to cook with efficiency and idiot-proof methods, and there is no love or attention to most of it. I will talk with McDonalds as the example, since they are the ultimate way Fast-food establishment.
There can be healthy "fast-food", at least compared to the standard greasy burger. My town recently had an interesting opening, and I visited the establishment today. They are nice, and they cook "fast-food", but still, made in place and you can see. Burgers, fried chicken, fries...
So where is the line between healthy and fast food drawn? Let's make it easy. McDonalds is fast-food, and a homemade salad is the absolute "healthy food". Then again, there is illusions of health, such as when some establishments who often are praised for their healthy food, have calorie counts far above those of a meal at the big M.
While I am all for eating healthy, it is all about context. I mean, the fast food burger at location B, might be much better than the salad at location A. Eat in moderation, work out properly, and try to understand what you are eating, whether it is as "Sno'rthe 'le fanceh" or McGrease. Because the greasy burger can be much better for you, than the salad with chicken, and ham, at the fancy place. "better, not good", though. ^^.

Awww... I don't know about you, but I I can taste the love in my quarter pounders. I get what you're saying though. My dad used to own a few Five Guys restaurants, which are slightly-healthier/classier McDonalds over here. As much as I love fast food, I have a pretty healthy diet compared to most people...it's all in moderation. Honestly, I'd choose healthy food over fast food these days. Fast food just makes me feel sick afterwards because of all the grease and god knows what in the food. I find myself heading to the salad bar more often during my lunch break. Dude, you drink like 6 sodas a day last a checked!

Different strokes for different folks, mate ^^ I, however, would loooove a pack of fast-food chinese takeout. I've been aching for some for quite some time now! I taste some luv in it, however... I taste more love, in hearts. Mostly because, I don't eat hearts, but I love them. Or something. I like chinese and japanese fastfood!

Mmmmm...chinese food <3 I have it so much that I've gotten tired of it though. I usually just get Wonton Soup, Pork Lo Mein, and an egg roll

Uh... I don't know any names! I like sweet foods though! Well... uh, I think it's more Japanese ish, since it's a Japanese fast food restuarant, but it is sweet chicken with orange taste... Hmm, and I had Indian food when I once visited... well, England (because why not?) and it tasted dusty. I tried KFC there, and it was... greasy. I went to a concert the same day... My belly hated me so much.

KFC is the bomb.com! I love their little chicken bite things & their fries. The fries are a little healthier than McDonalds' because they're potato wedges with seasoning

The nicest fries I've ever had is at a Swedish fast food brand called Max, which is a nicer version of McDonalds in my opinion. Really... ahem, their fries are nice, they compensate for their food, and I love crispy fries.
