How often do you eat fast food, and why?

Fast food as the name implies are food that can easily prepared without much stress.
There are of various types,the way there are doing it here in our area I think is different from every other place .
For instance if you go to a fast food joint , they will tell you variety of meal there have varies from

• Rice and beans
  *Beans and pap
  *Tea and bread
  *Noddles
  *Akara and pap
  Then you have to make your choice , sometimes you may be confused of what to eat before having a particular choice of what to eat.

I am not a fans of fast food because they nature of work I do require an energy food.a food that will give me strength to do my work perfectly.
Since my kind of work is a remote work we go to different places to work for different people,there are some places I go I may not see a good food to eat except the fast food in such situation I will not have any alternative but to eat what i see.
To answer the question I do eat ,i do eat fast food once in a while.
