We have a local fast food chain called Good Times.

I'd put their burger up against all other national fast food chains. I'm willing to bet, though there's a litany of other local fast food chains all over the place that could compete. Part of the joy of traveling in the US, as far as I'm concerned.

We just started getting In-N-Out locations here a few years ago, and it's lovely for a cheap burger. But let's not pretend it's anywhere close to the best around. Plus their fries are so bad it's shameful.

Good Times' Wild Fries are divine. And strangely for a fast food chain they have decent green chile for said fries.

I used to live in Colorado but not anymore and Goddamn do I miss Good Times. The wild fries and that SAUCE, man. It's amazing.

Wild dipping sauce.

Remember in like 2009 or something when the got rid of the wild fries and started only selling "fresh cut fries" that tasted fucking horrific? I boycotted that place and then wrote multiple complaints to the company. I'm sure I wasn't the only one, they brought wild fries back eventually.

We did the exact same thing. I wrote a weird email where I compared their removal of wild fries to McDonald's manipulation of McRib availability to influence whale migration patterns...

Clearly I was on to something...
