College kids, listen up. What I'm about to tell you is going to ROCK. YOUR. WORLD.
We are all human. Humans need to eat. Food can be expensive. College students are poor. How are we not dead?

The world may never know. What the world does know is how to make cheap (and questionable) fast food.
I present to you The Holy Bible of Fast Food Dollar Menu Items.
6. Taco Bell--Mexican Pizza ($3.29)
This item is every college kid's dream. PIZZA. MEXICAN FOOD. WHY NOT BOTH? You get your carbs, you get your protein from (hopefully) real meat, and you get a satisfying experience of enjoying two food cultures combined. WIN.
5. McDonald's Artisan Grilled Chicken ($4.29)
Not only are you eating somewhat healthy (it's chicken, that's healthier than a burger, right?!) but you also get with it a side of small fries and a medium drink. OR you could pay a little extra, swap the drink for a small chocolate ice cream cone, and dip those fries into the ice cream for dessert. Yeah, I'm a genius. I know.
4. Wendy's 4 for $4
Wendy's is stepping up the GAME with this one. Four items for four dollars? That's gotta be a steal. With that $4 you get a junior bacon cheeseburger, four chicken nuggets, small fries, and a small drink. Y'all, skip that Starbucks line the next time and order yourself some REAL food. You'll be thankful later.
3. Burger King 5 for $4
Sorry Wendy's, Burger King has you beat with this deal. Wait, who's Burger King you ask? Only the most important source of nutrition your withering body needs! With this deal, you get a BACON cheeseburger, four-piece chicken nuggets, small fries, small soda, and a chocolate chip cookie.
WHOA. A CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE?! I'm shook. I'm crowning myself Miss Burger Queen from now on, sorry not sorry.

2. KFC Fill-Ups ($5)
KFC is often overlooked in regards to quality food. They are delicious. They have a way with chicken that I need to have. This option has several different boxes that you can fill-up for $5. All include a drink, all include chicken, all include care and love.
1. McDonald's 20-piece Chicken Nuggets ($5)
The biggest steal you're gonna get from any fast food restaurant on the face of this earth has got to be the 20-piece chicken nugget box from the Golden Arches. What better way to save some money than to split that 20-piece box with some friends?! Enjoy each other's company, enjoy the life we live, and enjoy those nuggets that God so graciously provided us. Thank you and Amen.
There you have it. How to survive college, fast food style. Please, don't starve out there. Also, if you have some extra cash on hand, buy a value meal for someone in need. Pay it forward.
