Hello everyone!
The MIOM Team gave me permission to host my Fast Food Tier List results on this page as they are released. I’ll still be putting them in the silly Excel format that I’ve been using but this is a good site to compile them all.
For those unfamiliar, I really wanted to gain some perspective on the general (it won’t ever be perfectly accurate) tastes of the Smash Community when it comes to Fast Food. I took about 1200 responses asking which Fast Food Restaurants were people’s favorites. The 50 most popular restaurants were compiled. Following this I chose around 30-35 panelists (via applications) to rate, to the best of their ability, as many of the restaurants as they could based on these criteria: Deliciousness, Value, and Service. These were averaged to give a Score, and the Scores from all the panelists for a particular establishment were averaged to result in an Overall Score.
What makes this project the most fun is that I asked the panelists to provide one-sentence reviews of the establishments they felt most passionate about. As you can imagine, sometimes they get pretty raunchy and hilarious. So I’ve chosen a few for each restaurant to display to the world.
I’ve already posted just about the first half of the list. I’ll start compiling the results here.
NOTE: This list does not provide any official views or endorsements. It’s simply an experiment for fun! (Don’t sue me pls)

Pfffffft hahahhaahahaha written by our very own Juan Debiedma, good stuff.
White Castle is way too high
Kentucky grilled chicken underrated lol
I feel like Burger King and Panera Bread are very lowon the list. I do not see much wrong with burger king and panera bread beside prices. The service is usually good and the food is better than trash tier. Also, I don’t know what White Castle you guys have been going to but for this place to be that high is just hilarious(in a bad way).
I was really hoping that Smashburger would be the #1 for the Smash community…
Hell yeah to Five Guys and Wendy’s for probably Top Tier. They’re my personal favorites by far. Not sure about the rest of the list, though I’m pretty sure Chipotle is going to be in the top 4.
UPDATE THE LIST HBOX
