We all have our guilty pleasures, and sometimes fast food is one of them. Sometimes you just need that Big Mac or Chalupa, but be warned- there are some fast food items you should never order. We'll take the danger out of your fast food indulgences. Here are a few items to avoid:

  • Ice machines- they're rarely cleaned and if there's no scoop, most employees will just use their bare hands. Gross.
  • Seafood items from Subway- they're pretty tight lipped about what is actually in that tuna melt... seems a little fishy.
  • McDonald's chicken nuggets- if you insist on getting chicken nuggets, at least order them fresh, otherwise, you can bet those little guys have been sitting in a box under a warming light for a length of time we don't even want to talk about.
  • Wendy's chili- apparently, the chili is made from old, dried up, and sometimes expired meat that has been scraped off the grill and thrown in the chili sauce. And if it sits too long in the pot, they'll just throw some water in. That'll warm you up...

In case you haven't heard enough, there's plenty more disgusting behind-the-scenes secrets about these restaurants that you can read here.
