New Jersey’s Favorite Fast-Food Spot
In New Jersey, we have so many fast-food choices for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. While fast food isn’t considered the healthiest choice for human consumption, in the Garden State we love us some tasty quick meals on the go.
The Big Fast-Food Question
So, we are all wondering, “What is New Jersey’s favorite fast-food restaurant?” There are so many to choose from, but it should be an easy guess as to which one it is. If not, it’s probably rather simple to narrow it down to a few and you’d probably get it right. However, I’m willing to bet that most who tried to figure it out, would not guess what New Jersey’s favorite fast food restaurant is.
The fast-food options in New Jersey are endless, but for me, the logical guess would be McDonald’s, Burger King, or Chick-fil-A. If that’s what you think, you’d be wrong. At least according to Finance Buzz. My personal preference is Taco Bell even though I try to avoid it as much as possible.
They recently set out to discover each state’s favorite place for a quick meal. The fast food restaurant that was found to the preferred in New Jersey probably has something to do with the name. Our fast-food restaurant of choice also happens to have been founded in New Jersey.
New Jersey’s Top Fast-Food Stop
If you haven’t figured it out yet, it’s Jersey Mike’s. New Jersey and Connecticut are the only two states whose first choice for fast-food is Jersey Mike’s.
Did they survey New Jerseyans directly? Not really. Instead, they looked at the “Google Trends score for each fast-food restaurant and multiplied it by the number of locations per 100,000 people in every state to determine each state’s favorite fast food chain.”
The data revealed quite a variety of choices with New York liking Shake Shack, and Pennsylvania preferring Wendy’s. Others that landed on various states’ top restaurant lists include Chick-fil-A, Sonic, Arby’s, and many others. I found it interesting that according to the survey I should be living in Missouri, that’s the only state that puts Taco Bell at the top of their list.
