The Five Guys Cheeseburger: Probably overpriced, but actually excellent. Needlessly and endlessly divisive. Its detractors will tell you that there are better options out there for better value, and that it doesn’t all live up to the hype.

The McDonald’s 10-Piece McNugget: No flash. Just consistent as hell even during — wait for it — DIPS in form. You can rely on this whenever you need it.

The Skyline Chili 3-Way: Genuinely the worst thing in the world. Seemed like a good idea at first, but causes immediate, painful regret.
