Number 10

Today I am thankful for fast food restaurants.  Yes, they do possess certain negative attributes:  Although they have healthy items, those are usually not what I'm buying.  As much as I like the healthier options offered at Taco Bell, I'm probably going to go for the double-decker taco or the Mexican pizza.  Many are overpriced.  Have you ever made a bowl of oatmeal at home and threw in some nuts and cranberries or raisins?  Have you ever bought a small bowl of the same thing at Starbucks?  What was the price difference?  And you know, I love a McDonalds or Burger King hamburger.  But most would argue that the quality is nowhere near a hamburger you pat out yourself and cook on your own grill.

I like it though.  It's convenient.  And let's be honest here.  If it weren't for the occasional fast food run, my family would likely starve.
