Taco Bell: 5/10. Adequate, I suppose, and having it once a year or so is enough.
A&W: 7/10. Root beer. The burgers are decent, but the fries suck.
Dairy Queen: 6/10. "Hot Eats" are crap, "Cool Treats" rock.
Checkers/Rally's: N/A
Long John Silver's: N/A

Taco Bell: 5/10 - Good for a quick fix.

A&W: N/A - Haven't been to one of these in ages. I can't really rate it honestly at the moment!

Dairy Queen: 5/10 - Don't go here too ften.

Checkers: 6/10 - Good food, just greasey as hell! I try to avoid this place because I feel a heart attack coming with each bite of their champ burger.

Long John Silver's: 0/10- Seafood fastfood doesn't mesh well with me.

This is what you would think if you were a group mind:

Taco Bell: 5.52, 17 votes.
A&W: 5.09, 11 votes.
Dairy Queen: 5.31, 16 votes.
Checkers/Rally's: 5.50, 4 votes.
Long John Silver's: 4.61, 13 votes.

This is proof that group minds are unholy abominations against the natural order of things. They don't much care for anything, it's all average!

Full rankings:

1. Taco Bell: 5.52, 17 votes.
2. Checkers/Rally's: 5.50, 4 votes.
3. Wendys: 5.41, 17 votes.
4. Dairy Queen: 5.31, 16 votes.
5. A&W: 5.09, 11 votes.
6. Hardee's/Carl Jr: 5.00, 8 votes.
7. McDonalds: 4.88, 18 votes.
8. Long John Silver's: 4.61, 13 votes.
9. Arby's: 4.35, 14 votes.
10. Burger King: 4.25, 16 votes.

---

Blazing ahead with tacos aflame and burritos shooting, Taco Bell took a commanding lead of...5.52! I'm starting to suspect that the holy grail of this topic will be a legendary 6.0 ranking. Anyway, round 3 is a go!

KFC:
Dunkin Donuts:
Boston Market:

KFC: 8/10: Chicken is okay but great, as are the sides. Bonus points for the fries and mashed potatoes, which are both excellent.
Dunkin Donuts: 3/10: Meh. I'm not a big donut person and they're usually not very good.
Boston Market: 6/10: Slightly above average.
Jack-in-the-box: N/A.
Tim Horton's(For you Krazy Kanadians): N/A.

KFC: 8/10 Good chicken, godly potatoes and pretty good snacks.
Dunkin Donuts: 4/10 All about the Boston Cream.
Boston Market: This is fast food?
Jack-in-the-box: Gives me MGS2 flashbacks.
Tim Horton's(For you Krazy Kanadians): 1/10 Urgh, my first encounter with Tim Horton's left me sick.  Iced coffee or whatever is just bad and if I want donuts I'll go to Dunkin.  Also screw you and your prejudices, I'm not Canadian eh!

KFC: 8/10. Can't really fault them. They're good at what they do. The occasional Snacker is also good.
Dunkin Donuts: 7/10. Good doughnuts, decent coffee.
Boston Market: 0/10. DNR. Worst. Food. Ever.
Jack-in-the-box: Haven't been
Tim Horton's(For you Krazy Kanadians): Haven't been

KFC: 6/10. Goooood potatoes. Chicken is tolerable very occasionally and if blotted with napkins to remove all the massive amounts of grease. 
Dunkin Donuts: 3/10. I don't have a terrible high opinion of donuts and I don't really drink coffee, so this isn't really my bag.
Boston Market: N/A. Only been there once.
Jack-in-the-box: 0/10
Tim Horton's(For you Krazy Kanadians): 5/10. It's kind of like DD except has soup. It's not super awesome omg but it's adequate enough.

KFC: 3/10. All side dishes.   Used to like their chicken, then I moved on to better things, then I found out that KFC chickens are being bred Matrix-style so I'm not too sure I could eat there again and not feel a little queasy.
Dunkin Donuts: 6/10.  OK coffee (I make better at home), pretty good donuts.  Only thing open 24 hours so if you're wandering around at 3AM (happens more than you'd think!) it's the only place to go.
Boston Market: Never been.
Jack-in-the-box: 4/10 in Albuquerque, but 9/10-Jack in the Crack kinda got hyped up around these parts because Albuquerque hadn't had one in ages.  The only time I had eaten there before before last year was on road trips, and every time it was delicious and tasted like real food.  Then a couple opened up here and they suck.  I don't know if it was the hype or if all JitB are like this, but I'm gonna trust my memory and just say the ones in Albuquerque suck.
Tim Horton's(For you Krazy Kanadians): lolwut

KFC: 7/10 Chicken is good, potatoes are good. Downside is their other sides suck, it's expensive, and personally the restaurants near me are all filthy.

I have never been in or even seen the rest of the restaurants in this round.
Don't think of it as a novel. Think of it as a chance to retroactively win every argument you have ever walked away from.

KFC: N/A. Not had recently enough in a manner which I feel comfortable voting.
Dunkin Donuts: 6/10. Good enough I guess? Only having donuts is kinda a lame thing though, since I perfer food for fast food, as it were.
Boston Market:  N/A. Never had.
Jack-in-the-box: 4/10. Has its ups, but generally inferior to McDonald's.
Tim Horton's(For you Krazy Kanadians): N/A. I'm from the US of A. *salutes*

KFC: 6/10. The chicken's... okay-ish, and the beans are good. Their chips are hilariously terrible, and they don't do any drinks that are good - the best is Pepsi, which is basically watered down coke. They get 4 for the chicken and 2 for one of the sides, that's kinda ridiculous, but... ehh, 6/10 works.

Yes.  If it wasn't obvious I don't really give a shit about how you do the rankings.

It is a crime against humanity that LJS is under A&W, literally the worst restaurant ever.

KFC: 8/10. Not much to say here. I dig potato wedges, corn, popcorn chicken, and amazing succulent delicious breasts.
Dunkin Donuts: Never been.
Boston Market: Never been.
Jack-in-the-box: Never been.
Tim Horton's(For you Krazy Kanadians): 7/10 Good quality donuts. SEEMINGLY always open. Iced Caps are diiiiiivine. Wouldn't touch the soup or sandwiches, though.

KFC: 6/10. The actual fried chicken actually physically causes me pain to eat, but the sandwiches are adequate and the gravy makes a decent beverage.
Dunkin Donuts: n/a, not because I've never had it, but because it's been about ten years since I have.
Boston Market: I think we have a few in Canada, but never been.
Jack-in-the-box: n/a.
Tim Horton's(For you Krazy Kanadians): 8/10. Even with the smaller donuts and the rising prices ($0.90 for one donut? Really?), still the best donut holes in the world. Sandwiches are horrible, and I've never tried their soup.

KFC: 6/10.  Solid but little more.
Dunkin Donuts: Neveer been. In fact I'm not sure where one is.
Boston Market: Never been, there's one in the area but it's a pain in the butt to get to.
Jack-in-the-box: They don't make those here.
Tim Horton's(For you Krazy Kanadians): Never been.  It's actually right on the way to my usual shopping routine... but on the wrong side of the road.

KFC
I'm not a big fan of fried chicken, so I don't feel I can judge KFC fairly.  I've enjoyed their sides and chicken strip type items from time to time, so that's how I'll rate them.
5/10

Dunkin Donuts
I like donuts, but these don't do a whole lot for me.  I mostly like glazed donuts, and the way they do them here they're too dry for my tastes.
I prefer Starbucks and even McCafe coffee, so the other big draw is right out.
3/10

Boston Market
You know how several people mentioned gastrointestinal distress from Taco Bell?  Well at least Taco Bell is cheap and often combined with non-Taco Bell restaurants.  Boston Market has made me sick every time I've eaten there, their food is not especially good, and they're priced like a sit-down restaurant despite having fast food service (and less quality).
1/10

Jack-in-the-box
If I've ever eaten at one of these, I don't remember it.

Tim Horton's(For you Krazy Kanadians)
I don't think I've eaten at one of these.

KFC: 5/10 - Eh.
Dunkin Donuts: 5.5/10 - I am a sucker for donuts, but there is better.
Boston Market: N/A
Jack-in-the-box: 8/10 - My preferred fast food joint. Generally liked their cheeseburgers and fries, and the shakes are good too.
Tim Horton's(For you Krazy Kanadians): N/A

Krispy Kreme: 3/10. They're okay but pure junk. Something about Krispy Kreme fails to satisfy me.
Panera Bread: 3/10. Meh.
Sonic's: 2/10. Greasy, overrated crap.
White Castle: N/A
Subway: 0/10. I'd rather make a sub at home than have one at Subway. Uninspired, tasteless crap.
