Will some fast food chains become the next Blockbuster?

Earliest KFCs weren't actually KFCs, it was a franchised menu, so you could have "Xarpho's Diner featuring Kentucky Fried Chicken" as a menu item. Some of these old franchised places lasted into the 1990s...the last Kenny King's closed in 1996 in Cleveland, which was a full-service diner-style restaurant that had the full KFC menu.
KFC's got so goddamn nasty around 2000, some bad signs even before that. Not even sure if there are any still around me. All the ones I knew of are gone. Negroids behind the counter ruined them, they all moved to Popeyes now. Never had a chance to try one of those Popeyes "murder the nigger in front of you" chicken sandwiches cause they always sell out and its always like a 40 min wait in the drive thru.

Deep fried chicken fast food is a thing of the past.
 
KFC buffets were great.

I can't foresee Burger King making it. In the past 20 years, they have tried everything except making better food and cleaning up the facilities. This is the hill they're willing to die on. I don't think there will be Burger Kings by 2040.

Theres only a handful of fast food places on a military base- one is usually Subway, one is a pizza place (usually dominoes) and the third is Burger King so I assume they will last there. I don't think theres ever been a McDonalds on a military base.

Every time I've gone to BK in the last like 20 years, I've been disappointed. I'm honestly shocked the pandemic didn't shutter them, their burger meat isn't even good.

There's a McDonald's in Gitmo of all places:

I think Subway deserves it the most. They're absolute garbage. Say what you want about McDonald's, they're at the very least consistent slop. KFC has been awful for years too but I think I'd rather give them another chance than Subway ever again. They're not even really any faster than a better chain like Firehouse or Jersey Mike's, let alone a local place most likely. It's kinda baffling Subway is still a thing now that I think about it.

I would not be surprised if Subway gets destroyed by Jimmy John's or some other sub place. It's one of the few fast food places I can remember leaving feeling disappointed and still hungry.

I live in NY and I'm shocked that subway is even a thing here when bodegas exist and you can get a big and much better sandwich for like half the price. I also have no idea HOW fucking chain pizza exists here either. If you're in fucking nyc and you get nasty ass papa John's instead of local pizza you deserve prison stalker child
 
I don't know how long john silver's even exists
Grandma NiggerLicker for one. I have some great memories flying into Knoxville, picking up an assortment of fish sandwiches and driving them 45 minutes to her mountain home. The rental would still smell like shit a week later when we dropped it off.

Also, the blacks.

I hope Taco Bell evaporates as soon as possible. They got rid of all items that are worth a damn, jacked up items that were once 2.50 or 3 bucks to 5-6 dollars, and took all their dollar menu items and made them 2-3 bucks apiece.
To their credit, these moves did single-handedly kickstart my move away from all goyslop in general. So thanks for sucking nuts T-Bell.

Luckily in Freedomland USA you can get inexpensive non-Subway sandwiches in places without a rat problem.

They had one at Naval Air Station Corpus Christi. It operated for maybe 10-15 years, replacing a Burger King but ultimately getting replaced by a Panda Express. There isn't one at Fort Hood, though (and Ft. Hood had a full Burger King with a drive-through and everything, though it closed years ago).

The funny thing is that McDonald's is the first McDonald's drive-through was built because soldiers off-base couldn't get out of their car wearing fatigues.

Subway was never really that good, even before they had the quality drop-off around the pandemic. They were just cheap, and usually pretty consistently meh to okay.
The last time I was in a subway, half of the veg they had out was rancid and the SEAmonkey behind the counter couldn't wrap his head around the fact I didn't want a sandwich with moldy tomatoes.
 
Fast food chains here in my state, especially in thriving shopping malls (yes, thriving shopping malls still exist) are being replaced with various "local" establishments that don't really perform like they are local establishments. Meaning, they put on a plastic-y show of being locally owned but often have the same quality if not worse than McDonald's on a good day.

Months l8 reply but it might also be your local TB stores cranking some things higher than others, there’s historically been a variable price thing going on between all stores/regions like how around my area the burrito supreme costs more than the grilled cheese burrito for some reason.
