Impossible to state a list since I would never be required/forced to eat chain restaurants for the rest of my life. I'll continue eating the foods that I grow.

I can't even come up with 5 chains I would eat at, let alone eat at the rest of my life. It doesn't seem it would be a long life, but judging by the FB cooking and cooking device groups, apparently lots of people have been surviving on chain restaurants all their life so far.

My list:
McDonald’s
Panera
PF Changs
Outback
Cheesecake Factory (or Grand Lux Cafe)

 

[ronandannette]

Denny's
McDonald's
Red Lobster
Boston Pizza
Edo Japan
KFC

And this is only hypothetical, right? I could not live forever on these menus and the thought of it is actually freaking me out a little.

 

[Kitty 34]

Denny's
Applebee's
Wendy's
McDonald's
Burger King

Not much in our area......

 

[Pea-n-Me]

Longhorn
IHOP
Olive Garden (love the $10 unlimited soup and salad option)
Wendy’s
Papa Gino’s/D’Angelo’s (regional pizza/subs)

In truth, Dunkin’ Donuts is a staple for coffee but more thinking of food options.

We rarely eat at chains, and usually it’s the kids’ idea. We do have a bon chon and it doesn’t suck.

I'm going with all fast food because it's too hard to narrow it down with all restaurants and most of our chain eating out is fast food on road trips. I've spent the last 5 years commuting between two states and these places have been my life. Most of them are chosen because I can make some reasonably healthy choices for a reasonable price. Pita Pit, Qdoba, and Subway have been my life. So bummed we don't have a Pita Pit or a Qdoba locally. Now that I don't go to the other state all the time I MISS PITA PIT! I went from eating there about 6 times a month to cold turkey.
