The problem I have with 5 guys is you have to plan out where you eat it. My first time I ate it in my car before heading home from out of state. Within 10 minutes I was sweating profusely and had to make a photo finish stop at a restaurant to unleash hell. Second time I ate it in the comfort of my own home and had an equally relieving experience.
Your stomach is weak. There's nothing digestionally disruptive there.

The only issue I've ever had with 5 Guys was when I got my food to go and was munching on fries in the car. I noticed a spec of something, maybe fuzz or dirt, on the inside of my windshield so I put my hand up and wiped it away. Unfortunately, my hand was covered in fry grease, so I had a massive greasy blotch right in the middle of my driver side's viewing area. I had to pull over, spit on a rag, and wipe it down so I could drive home without getting in an accident.

Yeah I don't think their food is anything that would cause stomach discomfort or intestinal distress Noodle, you may just have a weak stomach for it.

Dislike both Penn Station and 5 Guys fries. I'm on the other side of the "fried extra starch fries" debate. Give me dat fluffy BK fry.

5 Guys has never really given me stomach problems. Most things don't.

However, I've gone to Tijuana Flats(I'm not sure how national that chain is) twice in the last few months and both times I had to practically run red lights on my way home, to avoid shitting myself. I think I'm done there.

There is a great taco place near my work. Every time I eat there I get the craziest lower stomach pains and get the shits.

I'll never stop eating there though. It's my favorite taco place.

The chili cheese burrito has finally made its triumphant return at my local taco bell.

Yeah, the 5 Guys by me goes nuts with the fries. There's usually more in my bag than in the cup.
My experience with this miserly shit was at the Five Guys in the Inner Harbor Baltimore. Went back there the next year and same thing. It's the only place ever to skimp on the fries. Of course it was shitty Baltimore.

I can't think of any fast food that gives me a good gut cleaning. Went to Steak and Shake today mid-hangover, and I can't understand how anyone would prefer Wendy's or Burger King over it. That's retarded as fuck.

Oh, man...I wish there were some Culver's out here in California. That's some damn good food.
Culver's is pretty good, but I'd gladly trade it for In-N-Out any day. Or actually, I think I'd rather trade it for a decent Mexican place that has a real carne asada burrito on the menu. It wouldn't even have to be a really good burrito, just an average carne asada burrito would be a godsend.

I have to admit, I haven't gone to every single mexican place in town yet, but the one time I found a "carne asada" burrito on a menu it had fucking rice IN it. I might as well have gone to fucking Taco Bell and gotten a grilled stuffed steak bullshit. It's so sad.

Edit: for reference, I used to eatherewhen I lived in San Diego. Their carne asada burrito is $5.29, and it looks likethis.(It's one of the first couple images in their flash animation.)
