Eastern Iowans Reveal Their Ultimate Fast Food Meals

We know fast food isn't good for us, but we can't help but love it!

When I'm driving back and forth from Michigan, I typically stop to get some fast food along the way. It's a long drive (about 8 hours), so I don't really have much of a choice. Sometimes I get a serious craving for a particular restaurant, but sometimes I crave more than one! I've been known to, on occasion, stop a multiple places that are close to each other, to fulfill several of those cravings at once.

That conversation got us talking about our 'ultimate' fast food meal. If you could have the PERFECT fast food meal, what would it consist of? You're allowed to pick five items, which includes four food items and one beverage, from ANY local fast food restaurants that you want. What's considered "fast food?" We'll leave that up to you!

I put a LOT of thought into my answer, and it was tough, but I finally picked my favorites. Here are my five choices:

1. Cheesy Gordita Crunch from Taco Bell
2. Mashed potatoes from KFC
3. Curly fries from Arby's
4. Chicken nuggets from Wendy's
5. Fountain Dr. Pepper from McDonald's

We had some other great responses on our Facebook page that made us rethink our choices a bit. Here are a few of them:
