Description: "John Hein is the ultimate fast food maniac, and in this book he draws on his extensive knowledge of and love for both nationwide chains and regional gems, from McDonald's and KFC to In-N-Out Burger and Carvel. He digs in the stories of their origin; reveals secret menu items; includes best lists for everything from fried chicken and shakes to connoisseur concerns such as straws and biscuits; takes a nostalgic look back at the best giveaways, slogans, and uniforms; and even provides a battle-tested drive-thru strategy. With behind-the-counter looks at places like the Dunkin' Donuts headquarters and Nathan's original hot dog stand, 'Fast Food Maniac' is the definitive cross-country guide to some of America's best-loved guilty pleasures"--Page 4 of cover.
