im a fast food junkie. i love the shit. covid completely changed the landscape and subsequently my habits. my blacklist is getting longer and longer. quality across the board has plummeted while prices increased.
before covid i only had one entry; wafflehouse
You blacklisted Waffle House?!?
i totally did not want to hate waffle house. i eat garbage all the time. i fight the dog for food. i did not see it coming..
after a few decades of wanting to try it i finally go to waffle house. first of all, no pancakes?! they are fucking strict on that waffle thing. and then what i did order was just barely edible food. just awful.
i grew up haunting dennys, which is now quite expensive for no reason.
In your defense, my wife calls them Awful House, because every single time she's gone there, there's been something in her food (hair, bugs, bandaid).
Your wife... she is quite the tolerant lady
It really depends on the establishment. I went to one in the Atlanta area that was just disgusting, but then you hit one in a small town in the Florida panhandle and suddenly you get the best harsh browns you have had in your entire life with some eggs and bacon cooked to perfection. Thankfully the Atlanta suburb experience was my only bad experience. Most of the time it was very good with the occasional amazing.
IMHO, small town Waffle House tend to be a safe bet.
BANDAID??? I can see how a stray hair, or an airborn bug might land on your food.
But a BANDAID??? How does that even happen??? Was it used?
I just asked, and she presumes yes. I'm assuming someone was touching the food without gloves, and it came off.
The bandaid was holding the... BUGS... on..?
Okay listen. I get where you're coming from. I can understand having shitty food. But no pancakes? They are called the waffle house for a reason :P
It's been an actual decade since I've seen this face in the wild unironically.
Waffle House, Denny's, IHOP, aren't even fast food... They're just bad food. I still don't understand why people eat at these places. It's not like it's ever the only option, or the cheapest option.
Also I love this picture.
Your list is obviously wrong if Waffle House is on there
Trust me it is not...
I ate there at the request of a family friend in the last few years....
Ew. Oh God ew.. the greasiest saltiest overcooked hash brown crisp ever topped with flavourless meat and cheese that chewed like gristle.
I don't know how it's not on there for more people. Not when Diners literally exist.
it's for ratchet drunk people to hang out after everything else closes and get on world star hip hop for 15 minutes of internet fame
that being said I did enjoy their hash browns. yes it's been over 15 years since I was a poor student patron of their establishment

Y'all have not been to a Waffle House in this decade...
Did you lose weight or compensate at all for that?
