My friends and family are having a really hard time accepting the fact that I do not like fast food, and that I refuse to eat it. When they ask me if I want anything to eat from McDonalds, KFC, etc they give me this weird double-look when I answer "no". Is it that hard to accept that I hate fast food? It not only the taste.

It is the fact it makes me sick to my stomach. Every time I eat fast food I find myself throwing up in the bathroom one hour later. The only thing that does not make me puke are the drinks. Again, people give me this weird double-look when I tell them this.

And yet my family still buys me food there after I tell them "no".

I.do.not.like.fastfood.

The only fast food place I will eat/order from is Subway. My parents refuse to go there, saying that it is a "waste of time" to go there when they can just go to McDonalds and KFC. (Sometimes when they go to McDonalds or KFC, I ask them to stop buy at the Subway next door. Even when I offer to come with them, they refuse.)

And my friends?

"BUT IT TASTES SOOO GOOD."

And that's their opinion. I'd rather have a home cooked meal. But that's just my opinion.

Anywho.

o_O It's not *that* unusual. I like it myself, but browising other forums I've read posts by people saying that they think it's disgusting

I'm not the only one?

Lol. Seriously, Fast Food is well.... just that.

It's fast, for all the lazy people who either can't, or don't want to cook.

Honestly, I don't mind it, I'll eat it every once in awhile (I"m like... completely addicted to Subway though >< And Taco Bell is really really good....~) but I would much rather eat something here at home.

I don't see why people are giving you weird looks, or why your parents don't seem to wnat to get the thought that you don't like it through their heads.

Maybe you need to beat them over the head with a fry from one of the fast food meals they bring home to you...?

Besides.

Fast food has all sorts of icky stuff in it. You at least know what goes into your food when you make it at home.

I think its disgusting. I feel sick to my stomach when I eat it. It's gross. It's not that uncommon though. I know people at my school that dislike fastfood as well. The only time I will eat it is if we're on a trip and we need to get their in a certian amount of time.

I hate fast food too. I'm always amazed that there are people who actually like it and go to fast food places because they like the food. @[email protected] I do like KFC and Chick-Fil-A, but those are the only fast food places I actually like. I can't stand any of the others. They're just gross.

I like fast food, I don't have any problem with it. Though if I could I wouldn't have it, though it's just so easy when you don't have time to cook and whatnot.

Like I said, if I could I wouldn't eat it.. though sometimes I just want something from Burger King or Wendy's. I don't like McDonald's or KFC much, I'll eat food from there, yet try to avoid it.

My mom is like me, she's rather eat a home cooked meal though after a busy day you're just too tired to cook.

I like fast food. I'd much rather have a homecooked meal than fast food any day, but if I'm on like a trip somewhere or starving, I'll get something. I know it's not good for me so I only go maybe..6-10 times a year? And they're all spread out too. There are a couple of restaurants that are surprisingly good for 'fast' food. xD

I like fast food sometimes, but I really prefer chinese or pizza takeaway from a local restaurant.

It seems kind of odd that your parents won't buy Subway though. I know a lot of parents would be GLAD if their child preferred Subway over fast food.

One man's meat, another man's poison I guess.

I've completely lost my taste for fast food because it makes me so sick to my stomach. I will admit that some of it still taste good to me, but I still feel sick after eating it. The taste is not worth getting sick over.

And a lot of it tastes horrible to me. My brother and I went to a Krystals not too long ago. I hadn't been there in there since I was a little kid and I remembered that I really liked the burgers back then. I took a bite out of one of the burgers and I almost spit it back out. It tasted like a greasy, soggy sponge with cheese xP

I was so use to eating fast food when I was little, then when I stopped eating it in high school, my body just became intolerant to all the grease and sauces.

I used to enjoy fast food, but once you stop eating it for a few months, it tastes disgusting.
The grease is what gets to me... I try to eat healthy meals, but every now and then I'll go to a Wendy's (the only 'fast-food' place other than Subway or Port of Subs I like), and I always feel nasty afterwards.

It's just a matter of personal preference and what your body is used to consuming.

Like my addiction to Diet Pepsi and Coke... It tastes nasty to most people, and when I quit drinking it for a while it tasted nasty to me, as well... But I'm still addicted to it.

If it's literally making you throw up every single time, I think there's something wrong. :? I know some people's stomachs can't handle the grease but that's a little extreme.

Anyway, I love fast food. No one in my family ever cooks, so we eat some form of it at least once a day. My favorite is Taco Bell. <33

I like fast food sometimes. It's not my favorite thing in the world to eat, like you said, I would rather have a home-cooked meal.

As for right now, I got burned out of fast food for a long while because we had nothing but when we were moving, as we didn't have the time or the means to make a good meal. We have more home-cooked meals now though, wich makes me really happy. <3

I still refuse to eat a Mc. Donalds, as I find the food there disgusting and gross.

I'm with Luin. I don't like fast foods all the time. It's good and all, and they do have some delicious even though "fake" food. I'd prefer grandma's meals. :3

I don't like fast food much either. KFC is okay, but mcdonalds, burger king, etc. give me a stomach ache because all the grease. I like subway though...the only fast food place I like. O, I like panda express too!

I'm pretty indifferent towards fastfood just because when I was little we never went to those places. It was like a rare treat when we went to the Burger King. I think I just try to stay away from it now because of the eating too much fried food being not so great for you.

That being said, I don't think it's weird to dislike it. And I will always prefer something home-cooked over that stuff.

Well, you're doing your body a favor by avoiding fast food. It's unhealthy. There's nothing good about trans fat. Ever since I watched the documentary "Supersize me", I haven't eaten anything from McDondald's in a very long time. Instead, I prefer something like Quizno's or Subway.

I exaggerated...sort of.

However, it does make me sick to my stomach. However, I have thrown up numerous times after eating something from McDonalds. (Then again, this McDonalds also gave my mom moldy bread, stale fries, etc in the past.)

Aren't a lot of fast food restaurants trying to get rid of trans fats?

I can't stand most fast food either. My family makes fun of the way I eat all the time because I not only dislike fast food, but most food out of a box as well. I like organic foods and the like. Then they complain because of their weight and get mad because I'm skinnier. It's dumb. I just want to tell them to quit eating the disgusting fattening food.

I have a friend(ish sort of person) who dislikes fast food too :3
not only hamburgers and french fries but.. PIZZA! she's one of those rare people who hate pizza >.<

it's really hard to take her out to dinner because all the places other people want to go to eat, she can't eat anything. >.<
she doesn't eat anything that is "mixed" with other food, it has to be sorted out separately.. yeah we often have to be picky for her when choosing a place.. and often it's the most expensive place there is, which is bad for us others who don't have that kind of money to waste on food >.<
the only reason she gives is "because".

It's weird that your parents and friends don't understand your hate of fast food.. O.o I hope you'
ve said them the reason why? the throwing up and all..
and you know you don't have to go with them to eat fast food, if you want home made dinner, do it yourself :3

Last time I had fastfood was like.. hmmm.. August of last year? I don't have it often. My family is picky about packaged foods, so to suggest just going out, well, it doesn't work well.

I have it with my friends on occasion, but that too is super rare. I like it, but I just rather buy books and clothes than food. My friend is gross, though, I just recently found out that he spends an average of 50$ a month on fastfood and other junk.

And then moans cause he's fat. Fail.

While fast food doesn't make me vomit worthy sick, I don't much like eating a majority of it as well. There are some things I can't say no to, but others are just too disgusting, and I hate it when my parents try to eat there. D:

Your parents should get you Subway. It's cruel not to.

Pizza is delicious. o.o
Just wipe all the grease off of it...
