1 down, 364 to go

So, I was hungry all day yesterday. Not because I was craving fast food, because we didn't have any food in the house. When we finally got the car working we went to see Avatar, and finally after that long -but great- movie we went to get groceries. The convenience of fast food is especially high when you don't already have a house with fully stocked fridges and pantries. Most fast food isn't even exceptionally good or anything. It's just good enough to make it worth the money you're spending in that moment, and it definitely leaves you full for a good while, which is what most people want.

My brother thinks that I didn't spell out the challenge and make it plain as day so there will be no wiggle room whenever I really start wanting it down the road. So here it goes,

I consider it fast food if:

1. It has a dollar menu;
2. The person taking your order asks if you want to make it a combo, or upsize the meal for 50 cents;
3. There is a kids meal with a toy;
4. It has value meals;
5. It has five dollar footlongs : ( ;
6. You expect your food within five minutes of placing the order and/or
want a complimentary dessert if you have to wait;
7. It is sold at the mall (regular malls, not the ritsy ones);
8. The fried chicken doesn't have an option of some type of soul food side;
9. It's pizza from anywhere other than Olive Garden;
10. It has a drive through.

Sadly, this includes my delicious breakfast tacos-potato/bacon/cheese...That's probably the only thing I will miss.
