Jon Shook's Fast Food Addictions

This is not a burrito...

By Lesley Balla

We all have them. Don't lie. No matter what we know about fast food (pink slime!), everyone has something they still crave, desire, or in some cases, have no other choice to eat on the road. We asked some of our local chefs to divulge their dirty little fast-food secrets, because even those deep-rooted in the local, seasonal, artisanal philosophy will fall prey to the greasy, salty pull at some point. So what does Jon Shook, from Animal and Son of a Gun, go for?

"Like it or not, I get down on fast food especially when I am in a airport because there aren't many other choices. I like the #1 at Chick-fil-A with a sweet tea and Chick-fil-A sauce (I don't support the anti-gay marriage thing, but they do make a good chicken sandwich), an In-N-Out Double Double (but not a fan of the fries), or McDonald's Big Mac and fries (maybe once a year). But my number one choice is a Chipotle burrito because when I eat it, I don't feel so nasty. They care about the product they serve you, and that comes across when you eat it."
