PREPARE TO RAAAAAAAAAGE.
Uproxx.com put together a list of the “best” fast food desserts.
Essentially, they rifled through menus from a whole host of fast food joints, taste tested the offerings, and then ranked them according to a variety of factors like taste** and variety.
If you’re curious, check out the top 10 below.
BEST FAST FOOD DESSERTS:
1. Dairy Queen. Signature items include Blizzards, brownies, funnel cake, Fudge Stuffed Cookies, and ice cream cakes.
2. Wienerschnitzel. Their dessert menu is done by Tastee-Freez, so they’ve got a lot of ice cream stuff.
3. Chick-fil-A. They’ve got shakes, cookies, soft serve, a frozen coffee drink, and a frozen lemonade.
4. Jack in the Box. Coming to the table with shakes, mini churros, chocolate cake, and cheesecake.
5. Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s. Carl’s Jr. has shakes, cookies, and cake. Most Hardee’s locations have apple turnovers instead of cake.
6. Taco Bell. They’ve got slushies, cinnamon twists, a caramel apple empanada, and those weird little cream-filled Cinnabon balls.
7. McDonald’s. Their biggest dessert item is the McFlurry. But, they’ve also got shakes, sundaes, soft serve, cookies, and apple pie.
8. Burger King. It’s got most of the same options as McDonald’s . . . plus things like Oreo cheesecake and Twix ice cream pie. The people who did the list claim nothing on their dessert menu is that great.
9. Wendy’s. Way down in 9th place because all they have are Frostys and cookies.
10. Kentucky Fried Chicken. All they’ve got are cookies, and a so-so chocolate cake called “The Big Finish.”
WOAHHHH. We’ve got a lot of thoughts… specifically – IN WHAT WORLD DOES A MCFLURRY LOSE OUT TO WIENERSCHNITZEL ANYTHING?!
Credit where credit is due: You can’t beat the dessert menu at DQ. But, notice, they completely snub Sonic, another great option for tasty and quick desserts from rando slushie combinations to shakes and sundaes.
