Pizza, Burgers & the Great Fast-Food Debate: What People Really Think

Is sushi fast food? Is pizza unbeatable? We asked thousands of people to settle the tastiest debate online.

Few topics spark debate faster than fast food. Is pizza really the ultimate crowd-pleaser? Does sushi count? And has it all just become too expensive? We turned these delicious debates into a quick opinion survey to find out what people really think.

Why we ran this survey

Fast food is part of everyday life. A slice of pizza with friends, a burger and a Coke, or a bucket of fried chicken in front of the TV, we all have our favourites and plenty of opinions to share.

We made this survey to settle the passionate debates we all love having. Like, pizza vs. burger loyalty, what even counts as “fast food” anymore, and the undeniable price creep of our most beloved meals.

What the results reveal about our fast-food opinions

The clearest winner was pizza. Around 70% of people agreed you can never go wrong with it, confirming its status as the ultimate crowd-pleaser. But the biggest concern was price. Most people feel fast food has lost its reputation as the cheap, easy option it once was.

The biggest takeaway? Fast food debates aren’t just about favourites anymore. It's not simply “pizza or burgers”. People’s relationship with fast food is changing as prices rise.

The survey results show that while we still love fast food, we’re starting to question whether it’s worth the cost.
