Meals from your favorite fast-food chains are usually best enjoyed in your car, but sometimes you need to bring that comfort food magic home. Thankfully, you can now find plenty of these goodies in the frozen food section at your local grocery store.
Looking to create a chain restaurant-style meal at home? Here are 10 different fast-food menu items to buy the next time you go grocery shopping.
Prices and availability are subject to change.
$4.98 from Walmart
Sonic has one of the most hit-or-miss fast-food menus of anybody, but when it hits, it hits hard. The seasoned tater tots are the Babe Ruth of this team, smacking it out of the park consistently. Best of all, you don't have any reason to go to Sonic anymore since Walmart started selling these tots. Psst, the store sells Sonic's Cherry Limeade pops, too.
$4.18 from Walmart
I can only recommend this based on the level of willpower you possess. Chick-fil-A sauce is one of the best fast-food sauces on the planet. The one time I had this in my fridge, it was gone in less than a week.
$3.28 from Walmart
These are prevalent in many more places than just grocery stores. You can expect to find these bottled milkshakes-in-disguise at most gas stations and convenience stores across the United States.
$8.27 from Walmart
OK, it’s not technically fast food. But CPK has been slinging its pizza in frozen form for decades, and it’s easily one of the most reliable frozen pizzas you can eat.
$26.50 for a four-bottle pack from Amazon
This will make a rock-solid meat marinade. Better yet, you can just keep it on hand for when they forget to stick the packets into the bag at the restaurant.
$5.69 for a 16-ounce cup of soup from Target
Buying Panera soup at the grocery store makes a whole lot of sense to me. Buying a Panera flatbread, which I didn’t even know was a thing Panera made, makes very little sense to me.
$4.43 from Walmart
Arby’s has more to offer this world than just roast beef. I once called these curly fries the best frozen french fries you can get, and I’m not retracting that statement any time soon. You want these. Now.
$5.49 from Target
Eating a pretzel on your couch is about 500 times more pleasant than eating one at the airport. Kick those feet up and enjoy.
$16.95 from Walmart
Whataburger is famous for two things: being overrated (my opinion) and its spicy ketchup (not my opinion). Now you can take the latter home and stick it on a much better burger.
