You and I have different definitions of fast food.  In-N-out,
Val's, Nation's, all count as fast food.  Anyplace that you pay first,
that produces your food within 15 minutes, and from which you normally 
leave right after eating is fast food.

Chain vs. non-chain doesn't enter into the definition for me.
