Five Guys Burgers and Fries

[eggbag]

By far the best fast food burger I've eaten. All they do is burgers and the occasional hot dog. Fresh never frozen all natural and no preservatives . Tons of toppings to choose from and the regular burger is two patties. They make hand cut fries and fry in peanut oil. I suggest getting the regular size fry, they put your burger in a brown paper bag with an overstuffed cup full of fries next to it then proceed to bury both under another pile of fries. I think the large fry is a burlap sack full or more. Also you get all you can eat peanuts for free while you wait and throw the shells all over the floor. I think they started in D.C. but are branching out rapidly. We've got three or so in C.T. now. Try it if you see it, you wont be disappointed!

We have just had a couple of those open nearby, I second that it's the best burger I've ever had.... fries are so fresh they post the farm the potatoes came from on a tote board each day (and speaking of fries... we learned the hard way there's no need to order a large!)

As far as the nutrition info goes, I honestly don't care. Some folks live and die by those labels, and get paranoid over every little calorie, ingredient, and gram of fat. I prefer to eat what I want (in moderation) and let God decide when it's time for me to go to the big house. I figure if He put it on the Earth for man to eat, I may as well have it once in a while

Can not beat the Carls Junior $6 portabello mushroom burger. Have no Idea why they call it $6 burger as I only ever paid $3.98 for them in California.

I am not sure how bad fat is on a diet - we make our own fat when we eat sugars... isn't fat on the waist worse than fat in a meal?

Remember - Robert Atkins died at age 72 from a fall!

I do think liquified cholesterol (like ice cream!) is bad for your arteries!

Ok my diet tip......

Cut your burgers in half...since it is now only half the calories treat yourself to 2 helpings.
