    Yeah, I think different categories. Lee's just does fried chicken (which is why they're so awesome - the menu has chicken and sides and that's it).

    Chic-fil-A is sort of its own category (chicken sandwiches). But they make a mighty fine one.

      McDonalds is bringing back cinnamon rolls.
      I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

      I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

        Never actually tried a McD's cinnamon roll, but I'd certainly be up for it.

        Speaking of cinnamon rolls, does anyone ever eat Cinnabon now that no one goes to shopping malls anymore? I occasionally have a hankering for one if I'm at an airport (back when that was a place I used to have to go...) and I happen to pass one at just the right time, but 2 bites after I start, I always immediately regret getting it because it makes me feel like I want to puke. Does anyone else get that? It's a bizarre phenomenon: you crave something really badly, then shortly after you start eating it, whatever the item was that you craved makes you feel like throwing up. They should call it the Cinnabon Effect.

          I am totally that way with Taco Bell. Not so much throwing up, but the other end. Taco Bell goes through me like water through a sieve. But a gotta have my Taco Bell.

            There use to be a place in my local mall that sold you mini cinnamon rolls in a medium Styrofoam cup for like 6-7$. I miss walking the mall in the fall/winter in the morning with like 20 mini cinnamon rolls. Halfway through the cup you'd be looking to pawn them off on whomever you came with

              McD's cinnamon rolls are actually pretty good.

                I believe it. Say what you will about McDondald's, but the one thing they do is make tasty food items.

                  Their cheeseburgers are atrocious.

                  Fries are good.

                  McFlurries are amazing.

                  It's hard though...especially when I got my neighbor playing their franchise across the street...maybe I will occupy myself with Glamore Magazine.

                    If I go to McDonald's the only thing I get are chicken nuggets or regular hamburgers.

                      I dunno, I like their cheeseburgers. They aren't the best by any means, but they are reliable. I feel like McDonald's burgers are their own separate category. Of course they aren't as good as the foie gras burger at Fleur de lis or whatever (not that anyone here is saying that), but it's a high-volume, low-rent version of a familiar item that for my money, is a great 3-4 bites of food for like a dollar.

                      As far as 'flagship' fast food burgers, though, I really like the Whopper. I have no idea why (I think it might be the raw onions), but I've always really liked that thing. A Whopper with onion rings is a pretty solid meal for my money.

                        I don't even consider McD's cheeseburger a real burger, I'd say it's just a ketchup and mustard sammich, but I still like them as a snack, tasteh!

                          On further thought, it's definitely that.

                              yeah, same here. even when I'm full I keep eating because I don't want to just throw it away and there's no way some of the things I eat will I want to eat leftover the next day. McD's french friesare the worst, I'd rather eat chicken**** than eat 2 day old McDonald's french fries :yech:
