As we proved with our list of the Top 13 Fast Food Chains, we enjoy stopping for fast food every now and again. Given the number of choices available to the fast food consumer, the chains have competed with one another to come up with the most memorable food products, often with nasty results, including most recently KFC's Double Down. Today, we count down the 13 grossest regular fast food menu items, ranked based on their lack of regard for conventional food standards and your physical health.

I've only tried one item on this list (McGriddle) and I actually enjoyed that, everything else makes me feel a little queasy.

I wouldn't call myself the healthiest dieter around, but at least I've never eaten any of these things. CiCi's is the only restaurant here I've even visited in the past three years. And I'd have to say, if I had to choose, I'd easily try the Mac & Cheese Pizza, while the Baja Fish Taco is the last thing I'd caught dead eating... cause I'd die.
But I'd have to say

I think I'd actually eat the Baja Fish Taco before anything else here, but that's not exactly a high compliment. That shrimp taco, on the other hand, is terrifying (and I like shrimp tacos).

I can't believe the Baconator from Wendy's didn't make the list. From Wikipedia: The Baconator consists of two 4oz. beef patties, two slices of American cheese, six strips of bacon, mayonnaise, and ketchup on a bun.

Hardee's has several items that gross me out. They have a breakfast burrito that's filled with eggs, sausage, ham, bacon, cheese, potatoes and gravy that looks disgusting - you couldn't pay me to eat it. They also have a Prime Rib Thickburger where it's got sliced prime rib on top of a hamburger patty. Wow, two kinds of beef on the same bun!

I've only tried the White Castle items. They're both fine for fast food. Long John Silver's is the worst. Arthur Treacher's bitchez.

Okay.
I take huge issue with the Double Down's inclusion on this list. The Double Down is just Chicken Cordon Bleu by way of fast food. Breaded chicken breast? Check. Stuffed with swiss cheese and cured pork? Check. What's more, the Double Down has 540 calories, which, while a lot, is actually the exact same as a Big Mac and 130 calories less than a Whoper. It even has the same ammount of sodium as the aforementioned two burgers. Simply put, it's not that disgusting, it has a haute-cuisine dish as its antecedent and its actually kind of delicious.

I've never had CiCi's Pizza Mac & Cheese Pizza but I have tried it before at a local pizza joint and it is surprisingly good. I don't believe they included the extra cheese sauce (in place of tomato sauce) though so that could make a big difference.

this list and hype over the double down goes to show how backwards everyone's views are exactly on nutrition. I think the grilled version of the double down, sans cheese would actually be one of the healthiest things you can get at a fast food restaurant. Fat is not the enemy, processed food, grains and starches are.

You make a good point - the Double Down is *relatively* low on calories and high on protein. By fast food standards, it's not THAT unhealthy (at least compared to other items on this list), but sodium and cholesterol are still health issues. All that said, it's still gross.

something about a McRib just grosses me out.

Hold on a second. At 3am after the bars close, it's White Castle's chicken rings and onion rings 10 packs! And as far as gross goes. Any place that serves fish taco's pieriod.

Reading this list made me feel sort of ill. While everything on this list is kind of gross, the idea of buttering a hamburger roll just seems particularly wrong.
