Show Notes
On this podcast episode, Son ranks his favorite fast food restaurants that kids can relate to
Here’s Son’s top 13 fast food restaurants from least favorite to favorite:
13. Chipotle-Chips with lime. Ick!
12. Papa John’s-Tastes great but does not sit well with Son’s tummy. He may be lactose intolerant. We should probably get that checked out.
11. McDonald’s-Coming in at #11, this may be pretty controversial for Mickey D’s.
10. Subway-The good: customizable to your tastes. The bad: their sandwiches.
9. Domino’s-Decent pizza and the breadsticks are a favorite.
8. Jimmy John’s-Son gets the Ultimate Porker and Dad gets the Beach Club.
7. Panera Bread-Son loves the mac and cheese and the bread. He can’t have a lot of other items at Panera because of his food allergies. Take a listen to our previous episode on why Food Allergies Bite!
6. Culver’s-Great burgers and son loves the real chicken in their tenders. The cheese curds and frozen custard make this a family favorite.
5. Wendy’s-More flavorful nuggets than McD’s. Son also likes their new breakfast offering Wendy’s launched in the last few years.
4. Taco Bell-The Doritos Locos tacos sound interesting and The Bell’s Freeze frozen drink selection are a summertime favorite.
3. Popeye’s-his one-time experience with the fried chicken was memorable. We talk about the Popeye’s Chicken Sandwich and the craziness it created when it was first introduced.
2. Boston Market-According to Son, Boston Market is everything you want.
1. Portillo’s-Son loves the char-broiled burgers, cheese fries and the chocolate eclair cake.
