	I'm really, really hungry.

	vogz:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 09:42 GMT	8 points
	toughie considering i dont have many of these by me anymore...i'm also not positive how happy i am with the (type) snack...i didn't really know what i was expecting out of it

	MovieDynamic:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 09:43 GMT	12 points
	You really have to change the "Mexican" next to Taco Bell. If that's Mexican I'm Steven Spielberg.

	jaspa:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 09:55 GMT	14 points
	I'm surprised there's no Krispy Kreme. I guess that must be a midwest-only thing? Also no Häagen-Dazs or Ben and Jerrys. Surprising. Agree with MovieDynamic, after taking this, I'm headed to Taco Bell. Gotta love that "authentic" Mexican food.

	Krispy Kremes are where I live too (NC). I'm shocked Dunkin Donuts made the list and they didn't. Starbucks should list "Coffee" btw.

	smuglapse:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 09:59 GMT	6 points
	@Jaspa: We have Krispy Kremes in Florida and I was surprised it wasn't listed either. I'm sad because of the way I spelled "Carls Jr's", "Little Caesar's" and "Einstein Bros." Also, I wouldn't consider CiCi's or Fuddruckers as fast food. But otherwise, cool quiz.

	Jaspers:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 10:10 GMT	15 points
	A couple of these I've never heard of. Is it considered broadening my horizons if I'm still eating fast food?

	brianc:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 10:11 GMT	15 points
	starbucks, dunkin donuts are definitely coffee places, not "snack". also, i know dairy queen sells burgers, but i wouldn't think of them as a burger place. is their place on this list including ice cream sales? because if not, them (and coldstone and baskin robbins) should just be listed as ice cream

	DarkFlash:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 10:12 GMT	7 points
	Haven't heard of at least 10 of these, let alone eaten at half. That's what the westside of Cincinnati will do to you, with our Skyline and PennStation taking away from everything else

	Dystopian:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 10:25 GMT	5 points
	Being from Cincinnati, I also naively put Goldstar and PennStation. haha

	if you accept carl's jr and hardees separately, you should force rally and checkers separate

	Its amazing the size difference between the top an the bottom of this list. McDonalds is across the globe while In-N-Out Burger is only in 4 states (nearly all of them are in California though).

	onetheta:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 10:54 GMT	7 points
	From about #13 down these companies should consider expanding into the UK more. We have thousands of McD's KFC's and Subways so it can be done.

	HollywoodLeo:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 10:54 GMT	1 point
	Rubio's!

	HollywoodLeo:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 10:55 GMT	9 points
	@I_Hate_Registering, they need to put In-N-Out in the other 46 states. I miss In-N-Out :(

	Morby:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 10:59 GMT	7 points
	Fun quiz. You should put that it's based on US sales, which it obviously is.

	hornplayer:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 11:00 GMT	5 points
	I spelled it "in and out", I didn't realize it was a single "N". Good quiz. I haven't heard of some of these, they must be regional.

	GeminiNL:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 11:03 GMT	7 points
	Only got the top 8 answers. I haven't even heard of most of the rest. Maybe the fact that I'm Dutch contributed to that, we don't have a lot of different fast-food restaurants.

	MRL:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 11:15 GMT	12 points
	The list is from Quick Serve Magazine; the classification of Starbucks as "Snack" and the separation or non-separation of various chains is by them, not Sporcle.

	Lilybert:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 11:27 GMT	7 points
	No Krusty?! ;-)) . . . . . . . . . . . . I've always wondered what they mean by "Sbarro". It's not Italian, does it mean something in English?

	I got most of these by doing a mental drive through the Atlanta area...I'm upset that Krispy Kreme isn't there. They are better than dunkin...

	Rackie:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 12:41 GMT	7 points
	Wow this was hard... I think we only have about 8 or 9 of these in the UK...

	epaminondus:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 14:42 GMT	9 points
	Krispy Kreme is mainly a Southern to Midwest thing. If you head Northeast, there's a Dunkin on every corner. The difference is that lots of people go to Dunkin just for coffee as a cheap alternative to places like Starbucks (or when you just want to get your coffee and leave - Dunkin's pink and orange decor doesn't encourage loitering as much as Starbuck's cushy chairs and free wi-fi.) Krispy Kreme might have less US sales, but their donuts taste better, you can find them installed in many convenience shops and grocery stores, and they've expanded to the UK. Take that, cakey Dunkin donut. I'll choose your yeast-based cousin over you any day of the week.

	Rejected jackinthebox, bojangles, inandoutburger. I'd concede the third one but they don't have any in Georgia.

	Cuthbert_Twilley:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 15:37 GMT	7 points
	Five Guys will be on here soon. Best burgers ever! I'm probably biased, but I've been eating them since the first one opened.

	newenglander:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 15:53 GMT	9 points
	one of the reasons this quiz is hard is because a lot of these chains are only in certain parts of the country.

	lulubelles:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 16:00 GMT	5 points
	aww krispy kremes are the best thing ever, they kick all our english doughnuts arses! the xmas ones are best, with mincemeat in the middle

	colincorgi:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 16:14 GMT	10 points
	I have to agree with Cuthbert -- I generally avoid fast food, but Five Guys is where I make an exception.

	Ribhump:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 16:16 GMT	1 point
	where's wimpy, even using wikipedia it appears Wimpy much bigger than Fuddruckers 260 worldwide restaurants

	Kamara853:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 16:22 GMT	10 points
	Having worked at fuddruckers, I don't see how it's a quick service restaurant by any stretch of the imagination...

	Bretzky:	Mar 2nd, 2009 at 16:25 GMT	4 points
	This quiz makes me wish we had a Checker's in the Pittsburgh area. I haven't had one of their burgers since I left DC. Best fast food burger you can get. BTW, give me a Dunkin' Donuts doughnut over a Krispy Kreme one any day of the week. Biting into a Krispy Kreme doughnut is like drinking a bottle of frying oil.

	fwiw, Krispy Kreme had expanded into California and was present in many supermarkets. But recently they haven't been there anymore and I heard that they were cutting back nationally. This survey was probably taken after their cutbacks.
