This map of the US represents states supporting Hardees vs states that support Carl's Jr.
Red states are Hardees-centric while yellow states are Carl's Jr-centric. Orange states are a mix.

Note that there are neither Hardees nor Carls Jr. within two states of Maine.

Hypothesis: No thickburger or cherry lemonade for the big boy.

CARLS!!!!!!!

still not as good as volcano burer and tommys and in & out.

Are you trying to make me fucking sad or something?

In Waterville I have (for chains): Arbys, Burger King, McDonalds, KFC/Taco Bell, Subway, Quiznos, Pizza Slut, Dominoes, Papa Johns, Ruby Tuesdays, Applebees.  I don't repel much.

This one time when I was talking to someone (I really forget who), we were trying to decide on a place to eat and I start naming off all of the restaurants we DON'T have around here (Carl's Junior, White Castle, Sonics, etc.)......it was pretty funny.

Sonic's the shit. In N Out too. We have KFC and Subway, that's it for fast food chains here. We do have a bunch of good Syrian or Lebanese shoarma places though.

I'm not sure I buy those stats.

Texas has way more hardee's than Carl's Jr.  In fact, I can't remember a time I saw a Carl's Jr in the state.

How many people in Waterville? Few thousand, 10 thousand?

Thats fucking sad, the amount of fast food places a small town like that'll support.

Blackburn South, 30 thousandish... One Mickey D's and a Subway.  The rest are family run type places, Charcoal Chicken shop, the worst pizza place in Melbourne outside one of the big chains (whoever thought that Indians could make pizza? They did. They are wrong), couple of Fish & Chip shops, and the best noodle place ever, run by Chinese immigrants, and a decent curry place.

Meat Pies, Hummous with pita bread, hushwee, kibbeh, tabbouleh.  I grew up on all that shit.

You grew up on meat pies?

Kibbe's good shit!

You're talking to an 1/8th Lebanese here who's relatives cook traditional Lebanese food all the time, one even runs a Lebanese bakery here in Waterville.  Meat Pies, Hummous with pita bread, hushwee, kibbeh, tabbouleh.  I grew up on all that shit.

quit it. you're makin' me horny. i love that food.

Wiki: The population was 15,605 at the 2000 census.  And I'm sure it's more than that at the moment, it's growing.  Oh, and it's a city.

Disregarding what pretensions your local municipality might have, 15k people is not a city. Its barely a town. More like a village, or a hamlet.

or an american strip mall.

Whatever you say, buddy.  It's a very small city, but a city nonetheless.  It's the central hub for the surrounding towns.

WHAT!!, no Thai ?

We have some kickass Thai food here.

There's Thai, its a restraunt in the traditional sense... I think they do takeaway, but I've never eaten there. Box Hill is so close, and there's much more variety there.

I REALLY wish we had a Thai place here. God, Thai food is good.

Tempura and whores.

tempura whores? hmmmm?

I got 3 of them within 100 meters of my front door.

tempura whores?

Nothing like a whore to batter...

I make my own Thai, Indian and Paki food. Which is good because we're poor. But I'm a better cook than most of you (except krsna).

What are you talking about?  I cook Cup Noodles and Mac N Cheese all the time.

Can you make the Pakistani variation of Red Dahl from scratch?

......I can cook boil-in-a-bag rice.
