America needs healthy fast food

How awesome would it be to go through the drive-thru and get fast food sushi? Or decent fast food Mexican (not that gross stuff from Taco Bell)?
Why hasn't some company attempted to make a widespread and healthy fast-food franchise?

if there were such a thing as 'fast food sushi', I would be very reluctant to eat it. Sounds to me like a good way to get brain worms

You can get healthy sandwiches at SUBWAY's if you don't put to much sauce on them that is.

Yes, Subways is a good choice. Tuna with the sweet onion sauce. It's a killer.

You don't think people would eat healthy fast-food? When I was up in Canada I went through the Tim Horton's drive-thru several times and it was awesome. I was able to get good tasting and healthy food. I wish we had those here.

I believe that a lot of people would eat at a healthy food place if it were as convenient as McDonalds.
Subway is the only place that comes to mind when thinking of places already established. Although it's not as fast as McDonalds, it's still convenient and has very healthy choices.

Timmies isnt as healthy as you think, now that its owned by an american company, i think Wendys bought them actually. since the switchover, they have started using genetically modified ingredients, yum yum yum!
i still love their coffee though. and im a sucker with a sweet tooth.
i guess its healthier than mcdonalds or most drive-thru fast food, but its not like you are eating vegan shit from Tims either eh.

One reason In-N-Out has not expanded far outside Southern California is that none of their food is ever frozen. Restaurants receive weekly shipments from several warehouses. The delivery trucks are only able to travel a limited distance from In-N-Out's meat-packing plant, where the company does its own boning, grinding, and pattying of fresh beef chuck.

In-N-Out sounds pretty awesome, and sexy 
we have a place called Evo's in Flow'da
the burgers are free-range chuck, they have trout and nothing's deepfried, they 'air-fry' or some shit
pretty good, though not terribly cheap

Some places actually charge .10-.20 per fry sauce.

When I'm need food and have zero time, I get a 7 layer from taco bell, its really not bad - rice, beans, lettuce, tomatoe, cheese, guacamole, and sour cream. Only 20 or so grams of fat, no weird meat stuff. You can't really fuck up rice and beans.

Ultimately, there's always a trade-off between quality-food and fast-food. When Taco-Bell first opened up, their primary focus was on quality mexican food, burritos, tortillas, etc., while at the same time advertising it to be fast. After some time of success, they almost went bankrupt. Why? Because in reality, it wasn't "fast"-food. It was "snail"-food. Consequently, Taco Bell made some adjustments to their fundamental operations and now they are much, much more faster, convenient and..faster.
But you can guess what else has changed now. 
Suffice to say, they are quite successful to this day. Goes to show what the general public really value.
