UNSCIENTIFIC POLL: How Many Fast Food Points Do You Currently Have?

I recently wasted two free Taco Bell rewards AGAIN. It was the third time it had happened.

While I’m careless with my Taco Bell points, that’s not the case with my McDonald’s and Jack in the Box rewards, which I redeem regularly, mostly on iced coffee from the former and Jumbo Jacks from the latter.

But besides McDonald’s, I’m not very good at keeping track of all the reward points I have from the fast food chains I visit. So, I did a fast food point audit to determine if I was missing out on free food. Here’s what I found as of April 4, 2025:

Restaurant Points Can I Get Free Food?
Burger King 332 crowns Yes
Dairy Queen 65 points No
Dunkin’ 50 points No
Jack in the Box 15 points No
KFC 188 points No
McDonald’s 2277 points Yes
Panda Express 728 points Yes
Papa Johns $4 Papa Dough Discount, so kinda
Pizza Hut 320 points Yes
Popeyes 748 points Yes
Starbucks 21 stars No
Subway 63 points No
Wendy’s 411 points Yes

Are you as bad as me when it comes to redeeming rewards points? How many fast food rewards points to you have? Share your numbers in the comments below.

SPOTTED: Triscuit Cinnamon Brown Sugar Crackers

I can imagine topping these crackers with an Italian soft cheese, Mediterranean sea salt, and South American chocolate. I can also imagine smashing the box with my forehead and using the smashed pieces to top some yogurt. (Spotted by Sarah R at Safeway.)
