Where Does ND Rank To Other States Spending $ On Fast Food?
Quick and easy. Right? Sometimes we find ourselves in a fast food rut
I speak for myself on this one. Sometimes I find myself forgetting to bring something from my fridge to eat for lunch, and since WE all have our quick and easy "go-to" fast food places. The general feeling is that it's not necessarily our favorite lunch in the world, but it's certainly the most convenient.
I'm guessing we are not the only State in the country that indulges in fast food, so here is a thought: what State would you think spends the most money at the drive-thru? Where does ND rank among the other States?
