Default Burger King now delivers. McDonalds may be next

Anyone else hear about this?

I thought it was a joke when I first heard about it

In Korea both deliver, in fact most fast food places do. It's ridiculous and dangerous when drunk at 4am- thankfully I don't drink anymore!

This makes me even more glad that I live so far out in the country that no one will deliver to me!

I was driving by the KFC near my house the other week and the sign outside said "Now Delivering". I guess if you can't get people to come to you, you go to the people.

I'm with Rachel. Thank heavens I live in the middle of no where so that the charge for the delivery would be so great that no craving would make it worthwhile. But then, I never have a problem with cravings for fast food since they've been required to display their calorie counts on the menu!

Luckily, I hate Burger King (especially the fries...blech).

Unfortunately, I love most other fast food places. This could be bad.

I don't see the problem. I find it easier to choose a decent calorie option at a fast food place than a regular restaurant, they display the calories.

Me too, Sacha! It's the higher end places I go where the food is on my plan that I can get into trouble with calories (think steak houses and the like). It's SO good and rich, I can easily overdo it. Whereas with Wendy's or Carl's jr. I have go-to items that I know the counts of, and in a pinch it makes it very easy to eat on plan.

As for the delivery service, I'm too cheap to pay for that option so we should be okay, especially since my SAD-eating husband is even cheaper than me!

OMG so true! I can't tell you how many times I've been in a restraunt ON A DIET and couldn't figure out-no matter how hard I searched-the calories in the food.

Nothing like cold fries!

Seriously - I couldn't care less about burger delivery. The better the burger the shorter the half life and fries are only good fresh.

Now if they start delivering Krispy Kreme donuts we may be in trouble.
