Yeah, we only have the big chains here. McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, Arby's, KFC, Subway, Dairy Queen, Buffalo Wild Wings, Fricker's, Bob Evans, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, Papa John's, Dominos, Marcos, etc.
We do have some locally owned stores, but they're either go in and sit down diners or local mom and pop pizza places.
The only really truly good "fast food" local place is a small place in the mall food court that is carryout only called Hot Rice. Fucking amazing Chinese! Authentic stuff too, it's a Chinese family who own and run it, cook and make it fresh right there while you're waiting (maybe 5 minutes MAX wait for the most complex orders).
Pretty cheap too. Only $8-$10 for a giant container of food that leaves even me stuffed to the gills after eating it, and I can eat a lot without feeling full. My favorite is chicken teriyaki on top of fried rice with vegetables, that they cook on the wok right there on the spot only after you ordered it. Their General Tso's is really good too. It has a perfect layer of spicy as it should. Sadly most "chain" Chinese restaurants neuter their General Tso's chicken and it never has any spiciness to it at all.
