20 Most Popular Fast Food Restaurants On Facebook

By the end of last year, Subway supposedly snagged first place from McDonald's as the fast food chain with most outlets around the world. Its 33,749 shops edged out McDonald's paltry 32,737. But if you look at how the chains stack up popularity-wise in the world of social media... well, by last count of the likes on their Facebook pages, Subway (4,047,389) still has work to do before it overtakes the Golden Arches (7,787,590). When it comes to the popularity rankings of your favorite fast food joints, you might discover some surprises.
