depends on the whereabouts
if it was a local takeaway and I wanted food straight away then they usually would have chicken ready whereas they'd have to cook a burger and would have to make a pizza from scratch.

If it was a retail park/services then it would probably have either a McD or a KFC or both so could take your pick.


With the choices though i'd say chicken

Fish and chip yes, Chinese or Indian usually involve a wait.

Chinese is usually about 5 mins or so, but I would never consider going to the Indian without phoning to order first, its always a minimum of 20 mins, so not fast food.

When McDonalds arrived I realised I could get a burger in the same time I could buy a bag of crisps, thats fast food.

But you have to wait for Pizza too, up to 15 minutes wait. So if that is the case then Pizza is not fast food and shouldn't be on the list.

And I chose pizza, since fast food burgers are not that filling and I can't stand KFC style chicken. So I hope it doesn't get removed from the list

I was thinking of the pizza huts that you get in food courts as fast food, where there is a very limited range and they have them ready.

Well then, I have been to fish and chip things on food courts that do a similar service to Pizza hut. In fact thinking about it now, I can walk in and out of a chippy within 5 minutes with my chips and sausage and gravy. So they are definitely equally as fast.

I agree that Chinese and Indian food isn't that fast, but I suppose fast food term has been stretch to cover a lot of type of foods, that are not fast but seem to be able to fall under the fast food banner.

Pizza, asking for a veggie burger in any of the big fast food places will take an age whilst you'll just get laughed at in the smaller ones

Hmm it is usually always pizza when I'm drunk. I've ordered a mild chicken curry twice, but it was stinking. I blame the alcohol.

surely a pizza takes just as long as an indian or chinese, how about kebabs the king of fast food for drunks. Also missed off fish and chips.

I am on a health kick at the moment so none of the above for me

In general we don't eat much fast food - if I fancy a pizza I normally buy one from the shop {Co-Op do a lovely Margerita}.... Not had pizza since I stuck one in the oven on NYD

I would say we had MacD about 5 times last year (mainly for convenience and not because it's preferred) and I don't think I've had KFC since I before we moved so 14/15 months ago??

The only thing we used to get quite regularly was a take-away kebab. We have a lovely local place that delivers the most succulent, freshly cooked chicken shish - delish!! Plus it was pretty healthy in terms of fast food...

Fish & chips would definitely be my first choice but as the option isn't there i've gone for a burger.

Once in a blue moon burger. If there is no Burger King, I'll live without.

I didn't put Fish & Chips or Chinese or Indian because I rate them as one rung up the fast food ladder.

Burgers, Pizza and Fried Chicken are the real basic fast foods I think.

I normally get my Chinese in about the same time as the chip shop.
