CNN-most-popular

Stacy Conradt’s round-up of secret menu items at fast-food restaurants is challenging for the top spot on CNN.com’s Most Popular list. Based on this chart, it looks like lazy people are more interested in little-known burger orders than getting ahead at work.

Well done, Stacy!

  3. Just saw the cnn.com article. I’ve been ordering Green Bean Burritos for years! So far, never been denied the green sauce and indeed, it is excellent and makes for a far better Bean Burrito.

  4. I was going to say, I read that article on mental_floss first! Glad to see it’s the #1 most popular (even if some of the items were switched around)!

  5. Great article! Another hidden gem – the “All American Cheeseburger Meal” at McDonald’s. It’s basically a cheeseburger Happy Meal without the toy or special box. It was on their menu years ago, but not anymore. I’ve ordered it at many McDonald’s restaurants and they always seem to know what it is!

  7. On the secret fast food menus you missed In-N-Out Burger options of extra toast and extra lettuce–my two favorites.

  8. So I log on to cnn.com for the first time in a month, and halfway down the page, guess what the first story I click on is.

    I wonder if cnn can tell who the _flossers are.
