Lists about everything from the best burger toppings to the most unbelievable things to ever happen inside fast food restaurants. 

Fast Food

Tomato

What are the best burger toppings? Everyone, it seems, has certain favorite hamburger toppings (and opinions on the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-burger-side-dishes/ranker-food" target="_blank">best burger sides</a>.) Very few people eat their burgers &quot;naked.&quot; That&#39;s what this list is about: The burger fixings that you absolutely, positively cannot live without. This burger toppings list is ranked by fans of food around the world. Your votes decide the popularity of the burger toppings, so decide accordingly. Can&#39;t nom out without juicy tomato on your burger? Vote up tomato! Can&#39;t stand onions, grilled or otherwise? Vote them down. And, if you have a personal favorite burger topping that isn&#39;t listed, by all means, add it!

The best burgers always come with great toppings. Some toppings are from popular fast food restaurants (In-N-Out comes to mind, that sauce is amazing), and others are just things that people might like to add as part of their own, personal, best burger recipes. Not everyone&#39;s going to like the same hamburger toppings. Pineapple? Well, that&#39;s kind of a toss up, isn&#39;t it?

Hamburger condiments are important when one is attempting to build the perfect burger. Some of the most popular burger fixings include ketchup, mustard (including brown mustard) and of course, cheese. And yeah, cheese opens up a whole new world of burger combo possibilities. From cheddar to American to provolone and pepper jack, cheese adds a whole new layer of awesome to an already outstanding hamburger.

Gross

Remember when you were growing up and the older neighborhood kids would regale you with urban legends about all the hideous things that have snuck their way into unsuspecting foods over the years? We wish we were here to prove them wrong. We truly do. After a thorough investigation into such matters however, we can assure you that the validity behind such tales is not quite as bad as you’d think - it’s worse. That’s why we’d like to take a moment to assure you that there’s still time to save yourself if you’d prefer not to see all these gross things found in fast food. &nbsp; If however, you’re prepared to discover the horrible truth behind the history of some of your favorite <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/top-fast-food-brands?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">fast food joints</a>, we invite you to proceed. Here we’ve collected a disgusting overview of some of <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/people-describe-the-most-unexplainable-thing-that-happened-to-them/bailey-brown?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">the most disturbing</a> stowaways ever discovered inside your favorite tasty treats. From the four legged to the furry, from the dismembered to the disgusting, prepare your gag reflexes for the worst. These disgusting things found in food run the gamut from human body parts to creepy crawly creatures. However, they're all plain nasty. &nbsp; Rest assured that some of what you’ll see here was clearly the result of an accident on someone’s part - a really huge, horrible accident - but an honest mistake none the less. Among the less fortunate displays however, you’ll find photos of senseless pranksters in the act that may or may not shred your last bit of faith in humanity. &nbsp;&nbsp; <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/true-story-behind-the-upside/jesse-childs?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">On the upside</a> however, if you’re looking for a killer diet plan, the nasty things found in food here are sure to do the trick. Just pull up this list every time you feel a fast food craving creeping up and you’ll be thin as a rail in no time.

Snacks

As the great philosopher Drake once said, &ldquo;You only live once,&rdquo; which is why you should go out of your way to try everything you can while you&rsquo;re still alive. This statement applies doubly to fast food in other countries. For many reasons, international fast food is the number one argument for visiting another country. Not only are the flavor profiles and spices completely different from what we have in America, but the food laws are a far cry from what we have in the United States, so you never know what you&rsquo;re going to get when you stop at a Taco Bell in Vietnam, or a hot dog stand in Iceland. (Real talk: get a hot dog in Iceland.) Dig your passport out of your sock drawer and put your phone on airplane mode, because this list is full of weird&nbsp;fast food items&nbsp;around the world that you need to try...&nbsp;no matter how strange they might be.

Trying different fast food around the world is one of the hallmarks of being an international traveler. For anyone who&rsquo;s ever left the country for an extended period of time, you know the familiar, yet alien feeling of popping into a McDonald&#39;s or Burger King in a foreign country and trying their version of your favorite fast food meal. For someone who rarely goes outside of their comfort zone, it can be a truly eye-opening experience.

Vote up the most interesting fast food from around the globe that you just have to try, and then leave a comment if you&rsquo;ve had the pleasure of trying any of these strange international treats.

Eating on the run can be difficult for those watching their weight, but it&#39;s not impossible to stick to a diet if you&#39;re&nbsp;choosing healthy&nbsp;fast food options. There are lesser evils hidden among the supersized options. These fast food menu items are healthier than other fast food choices, but still are fast food and likely only best in moderation.

Most doctors will advise that eating fast food is not part of a healthy diet, but busy lives, work, and being away from home often does not leave a lot of choice in the matter. Luckily, many fast food restaurants are providing healthier choices for adult and children&#39;s meals.

Just because you&#39;re forced to eat fast food does not mean you are required to select the 1,000-calorie burger or eat like a professional competitive eater. Skipping the burger and fries in favor of a grilled <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-fast-food-chicken-sandwiches/ranker-food" target="_blank">chicken sandwich</a> (hold the mayo) or a salad is often the best bet (be sure to check out our list of the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-fast-food-salads/chef-jen" target="_blank">best fast food salads</a>, if that&#39;s your thing). And better yet, you can always skip the bun and ask that your sandwich be lettuce-wrapped for an even <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/low-calorie-fast-food/chef-jen" target="_blank">lower-calorie fast food option</a> that also skimps on carbs.

Remember these selections the next time you find yourself in a situation where fast food is the only option or add your own healthy pick to this list.

Have you ever been watching TV and seen a tasty ad that made a burger or pizza look like the best idea ever?&nbsp;But then you&nbsp;arrive at the restaurant and you're&nbsp;served with&nbsp;fast food that doesn't look like the pictures? It has happened to everyone. Generally during a moment of intense hunger, hangover, or financial difficulty. As you'll see from thia&nbsp;collection of unappetizing fast food pictures stacked up against the foods as they were advertised to be, movie stars aren't the only ones guilty of&nbsp;a little airbrushing. Stop the lies! &nbsp;

Be it because of a craving for a greasy burger, a need for a hangover cure or simply a needed meal on the run, millions of people eat fast food each day, but which are the top fast food chains of all? That is where you can be the judge folks. Add your list of the best fast food restaurants and vote for your favorite <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/fast-food-from-every-decade/genevieve-carlton" target="_blank">quick-service eatery</a>.

Kentucky Fried Chicken, McDonalds, Wendy&#39;s, Burger King and Taco Bell are just a few of the largest fast food chains in the world, but the jury is out on which is actually the best. Some may even argue that regional joints like In-N-Out Burger would take the cake while others would debate that the healthier options, like Subway and Panera Bread, are where it&#39;s at. Or maybe <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-del-taco-menu-items/ranker-food" target="_blank">Del Taco&#39;s menu</a> featuring Mexican and American options puts them near the top. <a href="http://Fast Food Places That Deliver Via Apps Like DoorDash And Grubhub	https://www.ranker.com/list/best-fast-food-places-that-deliver/sammy-leary" target="_blank">Some fast food places deliver</a>, which can make people like them more.

So tell us fast food lovers, which of the top fast food restaurants are the best and why? Which artery-clogging grease famous fast food factory rules and which would you never visit even if it&#39;s the last thing on Earth?

The best french fries come in all shapes, sizes and seasonings as they are served up by the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/top-fast-food-brands" target="_blank">top fast food chains</a> daily. These greasy, salty potato sticks are the perfect accompaniment to a nice cheeseburger, with chicken strips or in some cases, even with a taco or two. Which fast food restaurant has the best french fries? That&#39;s often a matter of opinion but if nothing else, the battle for the <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/top-fast-food-brands?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">best fast food</a> fries is a fierce one.

In the traditional sense, McDonald&#39;s french fries are a classic favorite with their crispy outside and warm and steamy inside. But there are plenty of others right on their tail. Wendy&#39;s Natural Cut Fries and In-n-Out&#39;s shoestring french fries are favorites as well.

For those who like a bit more flavor, there is another competition brewing among the Cajun fry makers. Arby&#39;s is known for their spiced curly fries, Rally&#39;s and Checker&#39;s have their seasoned fries and Five Guys provides ample taste and quantity with their Cajun fries. Even Popeye&#39;s Chicken puts out a pretty mean Cajun fries which battles the KFC potato wedges among fried chicken lovers.

Similarly, another trend recently in the french fry world is the introduction of sweet potato fries. Both Carl&#39;s Jr. and Burger King have introduced sweet potato fries recently though some only for a limited time, with mixed results.

So whether you enjoy the crispy straight fries, waffle fries, crinkle-cut fries, those curly fries with the perfect amount of cajun seasoning or even sweet potato fries, there&#39;s sure to be the perfect french fries out there for you somewhere to enjoy with your <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/top-fast-food-burgers" target="_blank">favorite fast food burger</a>. Which french fries do you enjoy best? Vote for your favorites or re-rank this list your way, all below.

McDonald's Chicken McNuggets

The best fast food chicken nuggets include those classic bite-sized chunks of breaded and <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/the-best-fried-chicken-restaurant-chains/restaurant-chains" target="_blank">fried chicken</a>, the crispy chicken strips and some tasty unbreaded chicken options. Chicken nuggets are a staple of any fast food restaurant and beloved by children everywhere but not all fast food chicken nuggets are created equal. Which <a href="/crowdranked-list/top-fast-food-brands" target="_blank">top fast food restaurants</a> have the best chicken nuggets? You decide that by voting on, adding to or re-ranking this list below!

Unsurprisingly, many of the top-rated fast food chicken nuggets are those produced by restaurants that specialize in chicken. Chick-fil-A, KFC, Popeyes, Bojangles&#39;, and Church&#39;s Chicken all earned top marks with their selection of chicken nuggets, chunks, bites, strips ,and popcorn chicken. Generally available in mild, spicy or extra crispy varieties, depending on the chain, these places are often tastier, juicier, and crispier than those available at standard burger joints.

That said, chicken nuggets at burger restaurants are not bad either, as they increasingly compete to have the best fast food chicken strips and nuggets. McDonald&#39;s, Wendy&#39;s, Burger King, Sonic, Jack in the Box, Carl&#39;s Jr, Arby&#39;s, and Dairy Queen are all accounted for on this list, so they all have a shot at the best chicken nuggets title.

While most are breaded, some chicken varieties stand out from the pack for their nakedness. <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-popeyes-menu-items/ranker-food" target="_blank">Popeyes&#39; menu</a> offers a naked tenders that&#39;s seasoned with Cajun spices. Jack in the Box offers grilled tenders. Bojangles&#39; roasts and marinades their chicken bites. None have any of that gluten- and carb-filled breading but how do these options stack up against the breaded nuggets? That&#39;s up to you, Rankers. Want more fast food chicken?

True Crime

What is it about fast food chains that make them a magnet for violent and incredibly weird crimes? Do most fast food joints happen to be in bad parts of town? Or maybe it’s because fast food is generally the only option after a long night of drinking. Whatever the reason, crimes at fast food restaurants are out of control.Statistics show that the rate of assaults at fast food restaurants is more than twice as high as it is at full service restaurants. Why is that? More than likely it’s because <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/stores-and-restaurants-that-take-apple-pay/business-and-company-info?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">fast food places</a> are much easier to rob than a sit-down place. But even with that statistic in mind, why are fast food crimes so crazy? From teachers kidnapping students at knife point for some curly fries, to a woman who pepper sprayed an entire restaurant over a burrito, these insane fast food crimes might ruin your appetite. Everyday on the news, there’s a new story about fast food violence. Whether someone’s been shot outside of a Whataburger or they’ve been pulled through a drive-thru window, the fast food world is getting more nutso by the minute. It’s enough to make you want to never order fast food again, just so you don’t have to deal with the possibility of naked guys smearing feces all over their bodies while you try to eat your meal. Check out these crazy fast food crimes, and share your most insane fast food story in the comments.

Breakfast

McDonald's Big Breakfast

The <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/top-fast-food-brands" target="_blank">best fast food</a> breakfast items are definitely not the <a href="/list/the-healthiest-fast-food-choices-in-america/chef-jen" target="_blank">healthiest fast food choices in America</a>, but they are some of the tastiest breakfast options available at your local fast food joint. When you&#39;re looking for breakfast on the go or just hankering for a nice, greasy breakfast sandwich, what is your go-to fast food breakfast treat?

Fast food breakfast items generally come in either sandwich or wrap/burrito form, but that doesn&#39;t mean they are all created equal. Some sandwiches, like the Panera Bread Whole Grain Breakfast Power Sandwich, the McDonald&#39;s Egg McMuffin, and the Dunkin&#39; Donuts Egg White Flatbread are not entirely unhealthy and come in on the lower end of the caloric scale. The <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-carls-jr-breakfast-menu-items/ranker-food" target="_blank">Carl&#39;s Jr. Breakfast</a> Burger, Burger King Enormous Omelet Sandwich, and the Dunkin&#39; Donuts Glazed Donut Breakfast Sandwich easily fall at the other opposite end, skyrocketing with enough fat, calories, and sodium to get consumers through several meals.

In the wrap and burrito variety, the same goes there too. Those watching their waistline might opt for the Starbucks Spinach &amp; Feta Breakfast Wrap or Dunkin&#39; Donuts Wake Up Wrap, while those not so much concerned with the nutrition facts can indulge with the Jack in the Box Sirloin Steak &amp; Egg Burrito or Sonic&#39;s Ultimate Meat &amp; Cheese Breakfast Burrito.

They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but being in a hurry doesn&#39;t mean you have to miss out on the <a href="/list/best-breakfast-foods/chef-jen" target="_blank">best breakfast foods</a> with these yummy choices. Come select which fast food breakfast food is the best by voting, adding to, or re-ranking this list!

America has always had a love-hate relationship with <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-kfc-menu-items/ranker-food" target="_blank">KFC</a>. America&nbsp;loves how it tastes, but America&nbsp;hates&nbsp;what KFC does to the human body. The truth is the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/kfc-secret-menu-items/secret-menu-items" target="_blank">Kernel's secret recipe</a> will always be worth the pain, which is why it's time&nbsp;to proudly pay respects to those eleven herbs and spices with these photos of funny moments in KFC history.It's also a good&nbsp;opportunity to give a shout out to KFC's buttermilk biscuits, mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, potato wedges, pot pies, Famous Bowls, and the Double Down. And if KFC could work on making &quot;fried chicken skin potato chips&quot; a reality, America would eat that right up too.

KFC Double Down

The <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/the-best-fried-chicken-restaurant-chains/restaurant-chains" target="_blank">best fast food chicken</a> sandwiches might not be the best thing to eat if you&#39;re watching your waistline, but they sure are delicious. From those made by top chicken fast food restaurants like KFC and Chick-fil-A to those with the right combination of sauces and toppings at the fast food restaurants we already love, like Jack in the Box and Wendy&#39;s, these are the best chicken sandwiches fast food restaurants have to offer.

Like the <a href="/crowdranked-list/top-fast-food-burgers" target="_blank">top fast food burgers</a>, everyone will have their own opinion about which fast food chicken sandwich is best. That said, there are some that are just a touch better than others. Those who don&#39;t mind the controversy surrounding the chain might prefer the chicken sandwich options at Chick-fil-A like their regular chicken sandwich of spicy chicken sandwich. Others might go for those right from friend chicken restaurants like the KFC Doublicious Sandwich and Double Down, the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-popeyes-menu-items/ranker-food" target="_blank">Popeyes</a> Chicken Po&#39;Boy or the Church&#39;s Big Tex Tender Sandwich.

That doesn&#39;t mean that other <a href="/crowdranked-list/top-fast-food-brands" target="_blank">top fast food chains</a> don&#39;t make great chicken sandwiches either. The flavorful choices at Jack in the Box, like the chipotle chicken club, Carl&#39;s Jr., like the buttermilk ranch chicken tender sandwich, and Wendy&#39;s, with their classic spicy chicken sandwich, all among the favorites.&nbsp;

So what&#39;s your fast food go-to when you need a nice crispy fried or grilled chicken sandwich? Do you head for the spice of the Dairy Queen FlameThrower Chicken Sandwich or just the simplicity of the McDonald&#39;s Southern Style Chicken Sandwich or anywhere in between?

The best fast food burritos are those tortilla-wrapped creations from our favorite drive-thru chains and fast-casual restaurants that are the most satiating. From the wildly popular build-your-own burrito shop offerings to those late-night fast food options, these <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/top-fast-food-brands" target="_blank">top fast food</a> burritos are nothing short of delicious.

It could be said that you either love Chipotle or you&#39;re wrong, and that might be the truth with Chipotle burritos most often coming in ranked as the best around. Available with a variety of meats, grains, and other toppings, the Chipotle burrito chain might have perfected the modern burrito. But they are not the only one in the custom burrito game. Qdoba, Moe&#39;s Southwest Grill, and Baja Fresh all offer similar burritos; but with an estimated 750,000 customers per day, Chipotle is easily the most popular.

On the fast food side, Taco Bell might have the most well known burritos with various options of fillings, but they&#39;re definitely not the only one. Green Burrito, Taco Del Mar, and <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-del-taco-menu-items/ranker-food" target="_blank">Del Taco</a> also offer a variety of tasty burritos, perfect for when you don&#39;t feel like getting out of the car for your burrito fix.

It's McRib season, ladies and gentlemen. <a href="http://www.theawl.com/2011/11/a-conspiracy-of-hogs-the-mcrib-as-arbitrage">While some people are suspicious</a> that McRib's limited availability is a mixed conspiracy of exploiting low pork prices and creating artificial demand by limiting supply, others keep their mouths shut and only open it to eat as many glorious BBQ sandwiches as humanly possible. &nbsp;In honor of this week's return of the McRib, here's a list of the 7 fast foods with the largest, most rabid, dedicated and seemingly inexplicable cult followings. These followings pine for these foods and franchises in the same way all of America pines for those special three words every single year: &quot;McRib is Back.&quot; These foods are especially popular with stoners, (for example the White Castle crave craze).What are the best fast foods with cult followings? You may be surprised to learn of some the foods on this list, yet you really shouldn't be knowing the diehard fans that these restaurants have.

Rick and Morty&nbsp;brought attention to the world&#39;s grievous lack of McDonald&#39;s Mulan Szechuan Sauce, sending the Internet&nbsp;up in arms.&nbsp;Unsurprisingly, this isn&#39;t the first time people felt deprived of&nbsp;discontinued fast food sauces, <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/top-fast-food-brands">the chains you know and love</a> so quick to betray you. Who can forget when Taco Bell recklessly&nbsp;got rid&nbsp;of their glorious Lava Sauce, or when Wendy&#39;s&nbsp;mistakenly decided&nbsp;they didn&#39;t need Ghost Pepper Sauce anymore? These limited edition fast food sauces left everyone&#39;s mouths watering and craving more.

That being said, not all&nbsp;old sauces from fast food restaurants&nbsp;can call themselves delicacies. For example, McDonald&#39;s once made a spaghetti sauce, perhaps meant to go on top of your fries? Some of these sauces are also still sold in select locations, leaving the rest of us super jealous. The value of a fast food sauce&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/top-7-fast-foods-with-cult-followings/ariel-kana">rests&nbsp;in the eye of the beholder</a>, so such&nbsp;answers are yours to discover. Which discontinued sauce do you want to see come back the most? Given how Micky D&#39;s began&nbsp;<a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/entertainthis/2017/04/04/mcdonalds-listens-rick-and-morty-fans-who-want-szechuan-sauce-back/100045828/">talking about bringing Szechuan sauce back</a>, you can never say never. Maybe, just maybe, <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/discontinued-mcdonalds-menu-items/molly-gander">the Chicken Select</a> will make a reappearance too.

If you&#39;re a fan of sauce, be sure to check out our list of the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/the-very-best-bbq-sauces/analise.dubner" target="_blank">best BBQ sauce brands</a>.

Old Stuff

Time changes everything, including <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/photos-of-grocery-stores-then-and-now/kellen-perry">the ways people&nbsp;buy and consume food</a>, and fast food changed just as fast as its name implies. Today, a typical fast food menu offers&nbsp;not only&nbsp;burgers, fries, and shakes, but salads, quesadillas, and molten chocolate cakes, so the selection&#39;s definitely improved from these vintage menus.&nbsp;For all they lack in choices, these menus make up for in prices; look at them!

Lettuce

Lettuce is an annual plant of the daisy family Asteraceae. It is most often grown as a leaf vegetable, but sometimes for its stem and seeds. Lettuce was first cultivated by the ancient Egyptians who turned it from a weed, whose seeds were used to produce oil, into a food plant grown for its succulent leaves, in addition to its oil-rich seeds. Lettuce spread to the Greeks and Romans, the latter of whom gave it the name "lactuca", from which the English "lettuce" is ultimately derived. By 50 AD, multiple types were described, and lettuce appeared often in medieval writings, including several herbals. The 16th through 18th centuries saw the development of many varieties in Europe, and by the mid-18th century cultivars were described that can still be found in gardens. Europe and North America originally dominated the market for lettuce, but by the late 1900s the consumption of lettuce had spread throughout the world.
Generally grown as a hardy annual, lettuce is easily cultivated, although it requires relatively low temperatures to prevent it from flowering quickly.

Cheddar cheese

Cheddar cheese is a relatively hard, pale-yellow-to-off-white, sometimes "sharp"-tasting, natural cheese. Originating in the English village of Cheddar in Somerset, cheeses of this style are produced beyond this region and in several countries around the world.
Cheddar is the most popular type of cheese in the UK, accounting for 51 percent of the country's £1.9 billion annual cheese market. It is also the second-most-popular cheese in the U.S.A., with an average annual consumption of 10 lb per capita. The United States produced 3,233,380,000 lb in 2010, and the UK 258,000 long tons in 2008. The term "cheddar cheese" is widely used, but has no Protected Designation of Origin within the European Union. However, only cheddar produced from local milk within four counties of South West England may use the name "West Country Farmhouse Cheddar". Cheddar produced in Orkney is registered as protected geographical indication under the name "Orkney Scottish Island Cheddar".

Red onion

Red onions, sometimes called purple onions, are cultivars of the onion with purplish red skin and white flesh tinged with red.
These onions tend to be medium to large in size and have a mild to sweet flavor. They are often consumed raw, grilled or lightly cooked with other foods, or added as color to salads. They tend to lose their redness when cooked.
Red onions are available throughout the year. The red color comes from anthocyanidins such as cyanidin. Red onions are high in flavonoids.
They can be stored 3 to 4 months at room temperature.

Light or Regular Mayonnaise

The tomato is the edible, often red fruit/berry of the nightshade Solanum lycopersicum, commonly known as a tomato plant. The species originated in the South American Andes and its use as a food originated in Mexico, and spread throughout the world following the Spanish colonization of the Americas. Its many varieties are now widely grown, sometimes in greenhouses in cooler climates.
The tomato is consumed in diverse ways, including raw, as an ingredient in many dishes, sauces, salads, and drinks. While it is botanically a fruit, it is considered a vegetable for culinary purposes, which has caused some confusion. The fruit is rich in lycopene, which may have beneficial health effects.
The tomato belongs to the nightshade family, Solanaceae. The plants typically grow to 1–3 meters in height and have a weak stem that often sprawls over the ground and vines over other plants. It is a perennial in its native habitat, although often grown outdoors in temperate climates as an annual. An average common tomato weighs approximately 100 grams.

Spinach

Spinach is an edible flowering plant in the family Amaranthaceae. It is native to central and southwestern Asia. It is an annual plant, which grows to a height of up to 30 cm. Spinach may survive over winter in temperate regions. The leaves are alternate, simple, ovate to triangular, very variable in size from about 2–30 cm long and 1–15 cm broad, with larger leaves at the base of the plant and small leaves higher on the flowering stem. The flowers are inconspicuous, yellow-green, 3–4 mm diameter, maturing into a small, hard, dry, lumpy fruit cluster 5–10 mm across containing several seeds.
Common spinach, Spinacia oleracea, was long considered to be in the family Chenopodiaceae, but in 2003, that family was merged into the family Amaranthaceae in the order Caryophyllales. Within the family Amaranthaceae, Amaranthoideae and Chenopodioideae are now subfamilies, for the amaranths and the chenopods, respectively.

Monterey Jack

Monterey Jack is an American semihard cheese, customarily pale yellow, made using cow's milk. It is commonly sold by itself, or mixed with Colby to make a marbled cheese known as Colby-Jack. Cheddar-Jack varieties are also available.
In its earliest form, Monterey Jack was made by the Mexican Franciscan friars of Monterey, California, during the 19th century. Californian businessman David Jack sold the cheese commercially. He produced a mild, white cheese, which came to be known as "Jack's Cheese", and eventually "Monterey Jack".
A common misspelling is "Monterrey" Jack, presumably in confusion with the Mexican city of Monterrey.

Swiss cheese

Swiss cheese is a generic name in North America for several related varieties of cheese, mainly of North American manufacture, which resemble Emmental cheese, a yellow, medium-hard cheese that originated in the area around Emmental, in Switzerland. Some types of Swiss cheese have a distinctive appearance, as the blocks of the cheese are riddled with holes known as "eyes". Swiss cheese without eyes is known as "blind".

Honey Mustard Sauce

Mustard

Mustard is a condiment made from the seeds of a mustard plant. The whole, ground, cracked, or bruised mustard seeds are mixed with water, salt, lemon juice, or other liquids, and sometimes other flavorings and spices, to create a paste or sauce ranging in color from bright yellow to dark brown. The tastes range from sweet to spicy.
Commonly paired with meats and cheeses, mustard is a popular addition to sandwiches, salads, steaks, tofu, yogurt, hamburgers, and hot dogs. It is also used as an ingredient in many dressings, glazes, sauces, soups, and marinades; as a cream or a seed, mustard is used as a condiment and in the cuisine of India and Bangladesh, the Mediterranean, northern and southeastern Europe, Asia, the Americas, and Africa, making it one of the most popular and widely used spices and condiments in the world.
