1 Chipotle adding shrimp to their proteins (adding eggs, opening for breakfast on weekends and doing breakfast burritos would be pretty awesome as well. That wouldn't make business sense though as they'd get no business during the week without stellar coffee and drive through windows).

2 Chik-Fil-a adding a grilled jerked chicken option

How about a reasonable selection of veggie burgers, tofu, and tempeh? Usually, it's either nothing, or a nasty Morningstar Garden burger. I'd like to be able to get a high quality, savory veggie version of most of the menu items on offer.

Chipotle needs bacon for starters. and shrimp. there is a Chick-fil-a opening next to my work and I am excited to try it. Chipotle and Moes (and everyone else for that matter) need more Gluten-Free options

That's why there's Qdoba. The offer everything but the shrimp.

High fiber, low cholesterol, low salt foods under 500 calories that taste good. They all could use that!

A PDQ just opened here this week. Food was awful. Granted it might be because They just opened but still. I am not impressed with the name either since They failed to meet my family's standard IMHO.

I might even compromise on the "taste good" part if I could get the other 4 at a fast food joint.

On topic: I wish one of the chains would offer a grilled fish sandwich (not batter fried).

I think McDonalds should open a few locations that serve McDonalds dishes from around the world. http://m.ranker.com/list/international-mcdonald-and-_39_s-menu-items/ranker-food?format=SLIDESHOW&page=8

I wish there was a fast-food Gyro place... The Arby's version sucks.

More places with real lemonade, you know like from lemons, not a big bag of yellow powder, or from a bag provided by the local Coke/Pepsi distributor, real lemon juice squeezed out of real lemons.

How about a decent french fry? Does anybody remember what that's like?

I'm generally a very healthy eater, but I love a good fry, and it's almost impossible to find. Somehow a soggy, oily, mushy piece of sliced potato just doesn't cut it for me, and I now have a no fry policy anywhere I go.

I love gyros, but those arbys ones with cold cuts on them didn't even tempt me to try them

Come to SE Michigan, basically every coney island (of which there are probably more of than burger kings) does at minimum a decent gyro.

McDonalds needs to make:

  1. McBigBang: a full-size version of the McGangbang, and add bacon to get the whole barnyard involved.

  2. McThreeway: A McMuffin with sausage, Canadian bacon, and strips of bacon. Because pork. OK, egg and cheese, too.

Haggis. Seriously, believe it or not, good haggis is tasty, and a good approximation can be made like meat loaf and sold by the slice. Yeah, I know, not economically viable, but had to mention it in recognition of tomorrow (the referendum).

If someone would hand me a whole batter fried catfish and some slaw out a window I'd be just fine with never going fishing again.

Get out of Canuckistan and you can find them. I tried to eat McDonald's in BC and their fries are as limp as Canadian Football.

You can also find bacon that is actually crispy.

I will say McDonald's in the Philippines is pretty awesome since you can get sausage, a fried egg and steamed rice in a bowl for breakfast. Even though Pizza Hut has pasta there, I wouldn't recommend it. Especially the spaghetti since the sauce is very sweet. Gross. Jollibee's fruit pies put every other fast-food's hand-pie's to shame. Seriously.

Taco Bell needs to start carrying diet-Baja Blast. That E36 M3 is heroin soda. I never forget that taste.

It was developed back when they were owned by Pepsi, to go with taco bell food as well as scientifically possible.

I travel to the US a half dozen times a year and haven't had any better luck there. FYI, you can get fries at Taco bell in Canada. They're almost as bad as KFC fries.

You wouldn't think it's that hard. I can do it at home.
