7 Secret Fast Food Items Revealed

Posted by Abby Crawford on

1. Starbucks: Short
  Starbucks has a multitude of things that don’t appear on their menu, from   a cake batter Frappuccino (vanilla Frappuccino with both vanilla and almond   flavoring) to a “green eye” (a coffee with three shots of espresso).   And while their standard sizes are venti, grande, and tall, you can also order   a short – an 8 ounce option. A short cappuccino holds the same amount of   espresso as a tall, but it’s stronger. You can get a short latte or regular   coffee too. If that’s not enough of a jolt for you, order a double shot   of espresso, iced, and throw in some brown sugar. Also known as a “cheapo.”

2. Chipotle: Quesadillas
  One item not found on the Chipotle menu is the quesadilla – but they’ll   make it for you. It’s a large tortilla filled with cheese, chicken, steak,   or anything else you want inside. One review said it costs them less than $5   for their meal – lower than even the veggie menu options. You can also   order a taco salad or nachos, but the meals and chips are charged separately.

3. In-N-Out: Protein Style
  This west coast chain has their “not-so-secret” menu on their website,   so it’s not well hidden. Included are “animal style” (a mustard-grilled   burger with extra spread) and “protein-style” (your burger is wrapped   in lettuce instead of a bun). And if you want to skip the meat, you can order   something else not on the menu: a grilled cheese.

4. Burger King: BLT
  Don’t limit yourself to burgers at BK. If they’ve got the ingredients,   odds are they’ll make it. For example, try a simple bacon, lettuce, and   tomato sandwich. You can probably even make it a meal with fries and a drink.

5. McDonald’s: All American
  Remember the days a burger consisted of a patty, pickles, and ketchup? McDonald’s   does. Order it “All American” and you’ll revisit the days when   the condiments didn’t take over your burger.

6. Shake Shack: The Shandy
  While Arnold Palmer may have gotten dibs on the half iced tea/half lemonade   concoction, that doesn’t mean we all aren’t trying to make our name   famous with drinks. The Shandy is half lemonade, half beer.

7. Popeye’s: Naked Chicken
  If you love Popeye’s chicken, but not their calorie count, you can get   the taste without the breading. Simply ask for your chicken ‘naked.’
