The Politics of Fast Food

Chick-fil-A sandwiches and Sonic corn dogs lean conservative.

Wraps from Au Bon Pain and coffee from Starbucks lean liberal.

Taco Bell cuts across all lines and is universally popular.  Which probably explains why I prefer a Run to the Border instead of greasy chicken, a corn dog, the wrap or an overpriced coffee.

  1. Would be interesting to see the data weighted against the politics of where the restaurants are located. Or perhaps that is the source of the data?

  2. I hadn't considered the possibility of a self-fulfilling prophecy.

    If I had to hazard a guess - more effort goes into the the demographic and market metrics of locating a fast food restaurant in a particular location.
