Lack of Emotion or Nonverbal Communication

One of the most noteworthy signs your child may be autistic is when they don’t show a lot of emotion. Or they fail to show the forms of nonverbal communication that many of us do involuntarily. It’s especially vital to watch for these issues during the first year of your child’s life.

Your baby should be smiling a lot and there should be simple hand gestures like pointing and waving. If your child seems not to do any of this, it may be a sign of autism. Also, after six months, your child should be able to recognize their name and look at you when you say it. If you’re not seeing this, talk to a doctor.

An autistic child may also make repetitive movements, like rocking their body and flicking their fingers. So keep an eye out for those red flags as well.

Lack of Language Skills

By two, your child should be verbally communicating. It doesn’t have to be complex sentences, but there should be some communication. Remember that a delay in speech doesn’t necessarily point to autism. Sometimes, it may just be that your child is delayed, and they will catch up.

Usually, if your child is not talking by age 2-3, you will want to see if they’re also exhibiting the other symptoms on this list. As your child gets older and reaches their teen years, they may find it hard to verbally express how they feel. Again, that can be a typical behavior of older kids.

But compare them with the other signs on this list and speak to a medical professional if you see fit. Sometimes, a parent may get excited when they see their child speaking more, but then they’ll regress. If so, that could be another indication of autism. 

Isolation

While you may not be able to see the signs when your child is an infant, as they grow older, an autistic child will likely show a preference for isolation and being alone. Many autistic children are uncomfortable in loud and engaging places, like supermarkets and restaurants. There’s also the possibility that autistic children may be bullied or feel like they don’t fit in.

Because of that, the isolation may be due to fear, rejection, or social anxiety. As your child grows, it’s also possible that they could be bullied because of their condition. That could also lead to isolation. If you think your child may have autism, support them from the start. That will help them to feel better and potentially be a bit less isolated.

Your Child Gets Upset Easily

One of the signs your child may be autistic could be if they get overly upset at things that don’t affect everyone as harshly. For instance, many autistic kids can get upset if they don’t like a certain smell, sound, or taste. The sensations could be as simple as feeling the sand on the beach or hearing a extremely loud or quiet sound.

It can be different for everyone, but there can be a certain aspect of the environment they don’t like. Some autistic kids also like to stick to a strict routine that they follow every day. It helps them to be at ease.

When that routine is disturbed, they can get upset. Some autistic kids will get upset if you ask them to do something, like a chore around the house. If you see that your young child has a temper, ask a medical professional.

Not Engaging in Make-Believe Play With Other Children

Many children engage in pretend play. That could be where they’re pretending to cook a meal or be a professional, like a teacher or doctor. If you notice that your child is having trouble playing or they give up early, it could be a sign of autism.

Many autistic children struggle with this play. It’s often because they may not understand the social cues, such as pretending to hold items, communicating during the game, and sharing. Some autistic children have a hard time with abstract thinking.

If they don’t see the object in front of them, they tend to get confused. If the object is real, and they don’t like the texture or sound it makes, that could cause an outburst. Be on the lookout for these signs.

Performing Activities That Can Cause Self-Harm

It may be scary, but if you see your children engaging in activities that could lead to self-harm, then it may be a major red flag for autism. Instances of self-harm can include banging their head against the wall, biting, and anything else that can hurt them long-term.

It can often be a mystery why younger kids might engage in these behaviors. It could be that they’re trying to cope with emotional distress, to relieve the tension they feel inside or as a cry for help. If you notice this type of behavior, speak to a medical professional immediately before the child does indeed cause harm.

Your Child Isn’t Hitting Developmental Milestones

Sometimes, the signs your child may be autistic may not be obvious at first. Instead, you may notice signs as they grow. A good idea is to take notice of when your child isn’t hitting the standard developmental milestones over time. Here are some important milestones that your child should exhibit:

• Babble by 12 months.
• Point, wave, or make other gestures by 14 months.
• Mimic sounds or copy facial expressions by 9 months.
• Play make-believe by themselves or with others by 18 months.
• Respond with a happy expression by 6 months.
• Speak single words by 16 months.
• Say two-word phrases or longer by 24 months.

If you notice that your child has missed several or many of these milestones, you may want to talk to the doctor. Again, kids can be delayed and turn out to be perfectly healthy, but it doesn’t hurt to ask.

They Avoid Eye Contact

One of the most significant red flags and signs your child may be autistic is when your kids avoid eye contact almost all of the time. Yes, your child may move his or her head and constantly be looking at something new, especially when they’re babies and toddlers. However, when your child can’t make eye contact at all to the point that it seems painful to do so, it may be an issue.

Along with a lack of eye contact, an autistic child will continue to speak infrequently as they get older. If they do speak, they may repeat the same phrases. This repetition is often referred to as echolalia, and it’s a potential sign of autism. If you notice them repeating phrases or words or notice other odd verbal queues, speak to a medical professional.

Issues with Coordination

Recent studies from Autism.org show that one of the signs your child may be autistic is issues with coordination and motor skills. The research shows that many autistic kids experience both fine and gross motor skill delays that can affect how they stand, walk, and perform other activities. This is still a phenomenon that they are researching.

Scientists believe it could be due to differences in brain wiring. It could also be anxiety that affects how willing your child is to participate in new tasks, so they don’t build muscle memory. There are even theories about low muscle tone. If you notice these issues with your child, speak to the doctor.

Question

The Axis Powers consisted of which three countries?

Answer: Italy, Germany, and Japan

While other countries were at times associated with the name the Axis Powers, Germany, Italy, and Japan were the most influential. Smaller countries included Romania, Slovakia, and Hungary. Adolf Hitler was the leader of Germany, Emperor Hirohito was the leader of Japan and Benito Mussolini was the leader of Italy.

The Axis Powers formed as a way to expand territory at the expense of bordering countries. They claimed to want to defend civilization from communism, but their agreement (formed mostly between Berlin and Rome in 1936) played a large part in sowing the seeds of war leading up to World War II.

In contrast, the Allied forces were essentially the “enemy” of the Axis Powers. The Allied forces consisted mostly of China, the United States, the Soviet Union, and Great Britain. Poland and France were also early members of the alliance, and the Soviet Union stepped in only after being invaded by the Germans.

Question

When the nuclear bomb was developed, what was the name of the project?

Answer: The Manhattan Project

The Manhattan Project was a super secret government program formed to create the atomic bomb. The results of the project had a profound impact on the end of the war and warfare since then.

The developers of the nuclear bomb lived in secret military bases in unknown locations with their families to protect them. The fruits of their labors include the two bombs dropped on Japan near the end of World War II, one in Hiroshima and one in Nagasaki. The two bombs dropped killed more than 100,000 people, not to mention the long-term effects of nuclear warfare.

Many claim the United States developed the nuclear bomb before another country had a chance to, and there are now international laws surrounding the use of nuclear warfare.

Question

What was the Blitzkrieg?

Answer: A Nazi Germany Military Tactic

Nazis used the blitzkrieg to quickly defeat enemies. they used infantry, tanks, air support, and artillery to create disorganization and psychological shock against their enemies. The strategy was to place offensive weapons at the front of the attack to keep soldiers occupied, then break deep into enemy territory while outnumbering them.

The German word blitzkrieg translates to “Lightning War” and this tactic helped Germany early in the war. It helped with the 1940 invasion of France and the 1939 destruction of the Polish Army. Elements of it exist in modern conflicts, but the foundation of the tactic traces back to the 19th century.

Question

When did World War II officially end?

Answer: 1945

This can be a tricky question because the war ended as different troops surrendered and leaders agreed to peace. From 1939 to 1945, the deadliest war in history raged in Europe, Asia, and the United States.

On September 2, 1945, United States President Harry Truman announced that Japan had officially surrendered. This was the same day Japan signed formal surrender documents aboard a United States Navy ship. The German Third Reich surrendered early on May 7, 1945, in northeastern France.

While the Germans surrendered long before Japan did, the United States engaged in an ongoing battle with Japan as its leaders continued to commit atrocities. The US government decided to drop the atomic bomb as a show of force to Japan, and after two bombings, they surrendered.

Question

What organization was formed after World War II to promote peace?

Answer: The United Nations

Formed in part to avoid another World War as countries rebuilt after a deadly, lengthy one, the United Nations (UN) has several specific goals. They promote human rights, maintain international peace and security, and keep things friendly between different nations.

51 countries founded the UN. The main bodies include the UN Secretariat, the International Court of Justice, the Trusteeship Council, the Economic and Social Council, the Security Council, and the General Assembly. Participating governments fund the UN.

Question

What is the name of the first battle where the German Nazis were defeated?

Answer: The Battle of Stalingrad

The German army and its allies moved from conquering European territory to the Soviet Union. They started with the city of Stalingrad in Southern Russia, and as they and their allies attacked, they were finally stopped by the Red Army, marking their first major defeat in World War II.

In November of 1942, Soviet forces encircled the Germans that were positioned in Stalingrad. The battle lasted until February 1943. The original German force consisted of 220,000 soldiers, while the soldiers who surrendered after the battle consisted of 91,000 forces, leaving Germany weak.

Question

How did the Allies trick the Germans before D-Day?

Answer: False Information and Campaigns

It’s hard to imagine a world where information isn’t ready at your fingertips at all times, but remember that it took weeks and even months to get reports from one continent to another. Many countries had no idea what was happening in concentration camps until soldiers uncovered the atrocities because there was no way to document and send it quickly. So using false information and campaigns was easier then.

Allied forces sent many dummy tanks and vehicles all over southeast England so Germany was closely watching the area expecting the forces to move there. Fake radio traffic also confused the Germans. This gave the Allied forces a bit of an advantage because while Germany knew there would eventually be a cross-channel invasion, they weren’t sure where it would happen.

Question

What’s the name of the trials where Nazies were tried after the end of the war?

Answer: The Nuremberg Trials

After World War II ended, Allied powers like the Soviet Union, France, Great Britain, and the United States joined forces to form an International Military Tribunal. Nazi German leaders stood trial from 1945-1946 for crimes against humanity, war crimes, crimes against peace, and conspiracy to commit these crimes.

While Germany had a huge army committing many of the war crimes associated with World War II, only 199 defendants stood trial in the Nuremberg Trials. 161 of those defendants were convicted and 37 received a death sentence. Leaders like Joseph Goebbels, Adolf Hitler, and Heinrich Himmler were unable to stand trial because they had already died by suicide.

Question

Which countries lost the most civilians during World War II?

Answer: The Soviet Union

Formerly known as the Soviet Union, this area split into different countries. During World War II, they lost around 19 million civilians. On top of that, they also lost 8.7 military members. To put that into context, German forces only had 5.3 million military casualties.

The Republic of China came in second but disputed how many civilians and military members they lost. Between the two areas, they account for more than half of the total civilian deaths from the war.

Question

What do we now call the Allied invasion of Normandy?

Answer: Operation Overlord or D-Day

Commonly referred to as D-Day, the military operation was the beginning of the end of the war and took unbelievable amounts of communication between the Allied powers. On June 6, 1944, sea, air, and land forces of the Allied armies completed the largest amphibious invasion in military history. The operation had the codename OVERLORD and included 7,000 ships manned by 195,000 personnel from eight different countries.

The Russian forces pushed from the eastern front while the other Allied armies pushed from the west, leading to the defeat of the German army. It’s estimated that 29,000 Americans were killed during the storming of Normandy and another 106,000 were wounded or missing.

Question

What was the major battle fought between the United States and Japan in 1942?

Answer: The Battle of Midway

The Battle of Midway took place almost six months after the Japanese ambush on Pearl Harbor. Japan’s goal was to remove the United States from the Pacific area so they could gain more power in the southwest Pacific islands and East Asia.

After days of fighting, United States troops forced the Japanese to retreat from the battle. Americans were prepared for the battle because they had learned how to break Japanese communication codes in 1942.

Question

What was the plan to help European countries improve economically after World War II?

Answer: The Marshall Plan

After the continent was ravaged by war, the rebuilding process began, with help from countries from all over the world. The Marshall Plan was created in 1947 by Secretary of State George Marshall and provided over $15 billion in aid to European countries over four years.

The Marshall Plan was designed to rebuild cities, industries, and infrastructure. This also helped the United States by removing trade barriers, fostering commerce between European countries, and providing a market for American goods to be sold.

Question

What policy was used to contain Communism after World War II?

Answer: Containment

The United States developed a strategic geopolitical foreign policy after the war to stop the spread of communism. Also known as the Truman Doctrine, it simply stated that the United States would provide economic, military, and political aid to democratic countries that were threatened by communist influences.

There are four parts to the policy of containment. First, block the Soviet Union’s expansion of power. Second, expose Soviet pretensions. Third, retract the control and influence of the Kremlin. 4. Foster destruction within the Soviet Union

Question

What was the German Air Force called?

Answer: Luftwaffe

Luftwaffe was Germany’s version of the Air Force and was tasked with defending Germany in all air matters. Created in 1935, the Luftwaffe was commonly believed to be the strongest air force in the world and it played a huge part in Germany’s blitzkrieg battle tactics.

Over three million men served in paratrooper, air defense, and air force units from 1939 to 1945. The Allied forces disbanded the Luftwaffe after claiming victory in 1946.

Question

Which famous American general led troops in the Pacific?

Answer: General Douglas MacArthur

General MacArthur notably served in World War I, World War II, and the Korean War, and was one of the first servicemen to earn a five-star rank. He spent most of his life in the army and also served with the Phillippine Army as a field marshal.

He was given many military awards including the Army Medal of Honor, the Bronze Star Medal, the Korean Service Medal, and the American Defense Service Medal.

Question

Which battle was fought in North Africa and was a turning point for the Allies?

Answer: Second Battle of El Alamein

The battle was fought between the Axis Powers and the British Eighth Army and prevented the spread of them into Egypt. This kept the Allied forces in charge of the Suez Canal and blocked forces from moving their invasion into the Middle East.

Question

What was the point of the Tokyo War Crimes Trials?

Answer: To Hold Japanese Leaders Accountable

In their effort to expand and take power over much of the Pacific, Japanese leaders committed atrocious war crimes and were held accountable during the Tokyo War Crimes Trials. They lasted twice as long as the Nuremberg trials and were created in part by General MacArthur.

The trial went on for 2.5 years and had over 4,300 exhibits of evidence submitted. Some defendants were found mentally unfit for trial while others were sentenced to death. Others were sentenced to life in prison.

Question

Which part of the French government collaborated with Nazi Germany?

Answer: The Vichy Regime

After France was conquered, the Vichy regime succeeded the Third Republic for a good portion of World War II. Also known as the French state, it was headed by Marshal Philippe Petain, the President of the Council.

The Vichy Regime collaborated with Nazy Germany in performing raids to capture Jews and other people considered undesirable.

Question

What did Nazi Germany call their plan to exterminate Jews?

Answer: The Final Solution

Nazi Germany’s leaders used the term “Final Solution of the Jewish Question” to speak of the mass murder of the Jewish people. Rather than encouraging Jewish people to leave Germany and move to other parts of Europe, it became a systematic annihilation.

Nazi leaders anticipated removing 11 million Jews from the heart as part of the “Final Solution” and succeeded in murdering six million. This was the final stage of the Holocaust.

Question

When did the Germans invade the Soviet Union?

Answer:

Germans invaded the Soviet Union in 1941 with Operation Barbarossa. This was history’s largest military ground invasion at the time, with thousands of aircraft and tanks, half a million horses, and almost four million troops involved. They advanced from the Gulf of Finland to the Black Sea across all of Eastern Europe.

Despite their efforts, German troops were unable to defeat Soviet forces, which was a crucial turning point. Russian troops were better prepared to fight in the rough weather conditions, but many German troops froze to death in the harsh winter of Russia.

In-N-Out

Yes, Whataburger is delicious. However, many people think that In-N-Out Burger is better. Both restaurants have their similarities. Both have smaller menus and tasty burgers without a lot of unnecessary frills. Many people are like me and think that In-N-Out is better because the burgers and fries are so fresh, so they provide a certain taste that can’t be compared. You can sit there and watch them cut your fries and know they’re the real deal. It’s an incredible restaurant. Unfortunately, locations are limited, so try it if you can.

The Burger to Try

If you’re going to see how much better IN-N-Out burger is for yourself, then you should try the famous Double-Double burger. This is a basic burger with double patties, lettuce, and tomatoes. But what really brings it to the next level is the special sauce that’s been the same since 1948. Once you go to In-N-Out, you may never look at Whataburger again.

Shake Shack

If you live in a state with a Whataburger restaurant, then you also likely live near a Shake Shack. Many times, people will pull into the Shack Shack drive-thru over their competitor. Why? Well, in addition to having delicious shakes in a wide variety of flavors, they also have amazing burgers and savory options. You can go to many locations and see people lined up around the block. You don’t typically see that at Whataburger.

The Burger to Try

If you’re going to Shake Shack for the first time, check out the ShackBurger. It’s loaded with delicious Angus beef, lettuce, tomato, and their famous ShackSauce. Plus, it’s all placed on a perfectly toasted potato bun. It’s a simple burger, like you’d find at Whataburger, but it’s so much better. You’ll certainly go back for more.

BurgerFi

While Whataburger is delicious, the chain doesn’t always offer the variety that many customers desire. That’s where BurgerFi comes in. There, not every meat is the same. When you order, you can choose between standard patties or vegetarian, meatless, and gluten-free options. They are proud that their meat comes from the farm and not the lab. That’s not to say that Whataburger meat is low quality, but BurgerFi just knocks it out of the park.

The Burger to Try

When looking for the best taste comparison between them and Whataburger, order the classic BurgerFi Cheeseburger. It’s loaded with double lettuce, tomato, double patties, and double cheese. There’s also antibiotic-free Angus beef. It’s an amazing burger made even better with a side of fresh-cut fries. This is a great restaurant for a variety of flavor pallets.

Fuddrucker’s

While Whataburger serves some pretty amazing burgers, what you see is what you get. You’re limited in how you can customize your meal. At Fuddrucker’s, the meals are made to order, so you can get them exactly how you like. That’s one thing they have over Whataburger. In addition to that, they have some of the freshest buns in the industry. The restaurant says that they’re made fresh every day.

The Burger to Try

If you visit this restaurant, go for the Original Fudds meal option. Essentially, it’s choosing your burger your way. You get to choose the type of meat and how it’s cooked. You also get to choose the toppings. They have a legendary toppings bar that offers endless options to make your burger just right. It’s a variety you won’t get at Whataburger.

Smashburger

If you visually compare a Smashburger sandwich with a burger at Whataburger, you may find it hard to see a difference, at least visually. However, Smashburger is famous for literally smashing their burgers so they’re thin and lean. The process also packs in the flavor. While they’re similar, for my money, I’ll take the Smashburger any day.

The Burger to Try

For me, there’s a tie between two great sandwiches at Smashburger. One of them is the Truffle Mushroom Swiss Burger. It’s packed with fresh mushrooms and amazing beef flavor. If you don’t like mushrooms, you could also try the Classic Smash. Get it with onion, pickles, lettuce, and tomato, and it will be a party in your mouth.

Wendy’s

Yes, Wendy’s is a major chain and not quite the niche pick as some of the other restaurants on this list, but they continue to deliver amazing food. The executives at Wendy’s know that newer burger brands like Whataburger are making a splash, so they continue to try to innovate to keep up. Wendy’s has a vast menu with tasty choices that make it a must-have.

The Burger to Try

Go on any best-of-burger list, and you’ll find the Baconator on top of most of them. This is considered to be one of the best burgers of all time. It’s loaded with bacon and those amazing square patties. The patties are also covered in cheese, so it’s a flavor explosion in every bite. It’s just a bit better than many of the options you’ll get at Whataburger.

Fatburger

If Whataburger is delicious, then Fatburger is on another level. They take their name seriously by adding heaping toppings to burgers that also have tasty, large patties that are never frozen. They also have some of the best milkshakes in the world. Fatburger restaurants are not as common, but they’re worth a try if you want something new.

The Burger to Try

Like Whataburger, Fatburger has a smaller menu that won’t overwhelm you upon your first visit. When you go, try the original Fatburger. The burger has only one beef patty, but it’s huge and full of flavor. Get it with all the fixings, and you’ll get lettuce, onions, relish, mayo, mustard, and more. The beef patty has the right amount of caramelization that brings the flavor to another level.

Habit Burger Grill

Finally, while we know that Whataburger is delicious, Habit Burger Grill gives that chain a run for its money. This is another restaurant that you won’t find everywhere, so try it when you come across them. People generally love the burgers because they’re freshly chargrilled and perfectly cooked over an open flame.

The Burger to Try

Most people find that the best burger at Habit Burger is the Double Char. It’s a good-sized burger, but you can squeeze it down with your hands and get that flavor punch that we all love. The burger patties are perfect and even the lettuce is somehow better than at other chain restaurants. Get a side of fries and look forward to a fantastic meal.

Most Essential New Parent Products

Many cute, alluring, and fun baby items are on the market today. It’s hard to walk into the store without seeing all the adorable baby items for sale and having the urge to buy them. However, in reality, your baby needs only a handful of items. This fact is beneficial to remember if you’re working with a budget. Here are ten of the most essential new parent products.

Somewhere Safe for Baby to Sleep

The first item on our essential new parent products list is somewhere safe for the baby to sleep. This safe place can be a bassinet by your bed or a crib (remember the mattress).

Some parents decide to go straight for the crib and forgo the bassinet. At the same time, others prefer their baby to stay in the bedroom with them in a bassinet. Whatever you decide is okay. At this stage, parents don’t have to have both.

You can wait a while to get a crib if that’s what you want or skip the bassinet altogether. Additionally, if you go with a crib, remember you do not have to buy those $100 crib sheets.

Burp Cloths

One common fact is that many babies always have some type of liquid coming out of their mouths, whether it’s slobber from teething or spit up from acid reflux. This is why having several burp cloths on hand is necessary.

Many burp cloths on the market today are soft enough for a baby’s skin. They also come in packs. This makes them easy to collect and have around the house to use at a moment’s notice. Remember to stick a few in your diaper bag.

Stroller or Baby Carrier

After having a baby, you might not feel like getting out and about. However, give it a few weeks, and you may begin to feel stir-crazy. Having a stroller or a baby carrier on hand makes those outings much easier and more manageable.

There are many great strollers and baby carriers on the market today; the one you choose doesn’t have to be fancy. Unless, of course, you want it to be. Just as long as you have a safe place to put your baby, these items make it easier so you can get out and about when you want.

Feeding Necessities

You will need a plan for feeding your baby, whether breastfeeding or bottle feeding. Once you have a plan, you can narrow down what feeding necessities you will need. Some women choose to breastfeed exclusively, meaning they do not need other feeding necessities.

However, others choose the bottle route or a combination of both. A few necessary items include bottles, nipples, and bottle-cleaning tools. Additionally, a breast pump and feeding pillow (like a boppy) can come in handy.

Clothing in Varies Sizes

Babies need some clothing. Many parents love to stock up on sleepers, while others prefer cute dresses and sets. Whatever your style is, your baby will need something to wear.

Babies grow very fast, and it’s hard to know whether they will fit into a newborn size anyway. It’s often recommended not to buy many newborn clothes since your baby will grow out of them fast.

Also, if your baby is a fast grower, be sure to stock up on an assortment of sizes. You will have at least something on hand if they outgrow their favorite sleeper seemingly overnight.

Car Seat

Another essential baby item is a car seat. Hospitals will only allow new parents to leave the hospital if they have one installed.

Be sure to buy a car seat that has been safety tested. Also, avoid buying one secondhand, because if it has been in an accident, there’s a possibility it is damaged.

Diapers and Wipes

Diapers are a necessity for babies. Whether you use cloth or disposable, make sure to have plenty on hand. Babies, especially newborns, go through diapers very quickly.

If you are hosting a baby shower, a diaper raffle is a fun way to raise money for these essential items. Also, remember the wipes.

Essential First Aid and Health Items

Some items that often get overlooked when preparing for a baby are first aid and health items.

Having a first aid kit at home is a good idea because it saves time in case your baby falls sick or is experiencing a common issue that may arise. These ailments include stuffy nose, teething, or gassiness.

Some items to include in your first aid kit include:

• A thermometer
• Nail clippers
• A nasal aspirator (like nose frieda)
• Sanitizing wipes
• Baby-safe medication
• Diaper rash cream

While making a DIY first aid kit is possible, several great ones are on the market today.

An Outing Bag

An outing bag to cart all your baby items around is a necessity, especially if you enjoy leaving the house. Many parents choose to buy a diaper bag. However, a specific bag made just for babies isn’t always necessary.

There are many bags on the market that are geared toward carrying your baby’s items. Yet, you can also make an outing bag out of a purse, tote bag, or any other bag you have on hand.

When you leave the house, it’s important to have a place to put extra clothes, diapers, wipes, and other necessary items.

Somewhere to Put Baby When You Can’t Hold Them

One last necessary baby item is a safe place to put the baby when you can’t hold them. This place can be a bassinet or crib. Other handy places include a bouncer, swing, or even a play mat.

The item you choose doesn’t have to be expensive or fancy, just as long as the baby is placed somewhere safe where it will not accidentally fall (like an open bed.)

Unnecessary Items That Baby Doesn’t Need

Now that we have covered all the necessary items that new babies need let’s take a look at what you don’t really need. These items are often touted as necessary and helpful. Yet, many parents and families have noticed that they take up room in their houses and are hardly touched.

Wipes Warmer

A wipes warmer may seem necessary. After all, what baby will want cold wipes on their bum? However, many parents state that their wipes warmer either dries the wipes out or just sits there unused.

Most babies are perfectly fine with a regular wipe straight from the package. They get used to the feeling quickly, and it doesn’t last long, even if the wipes are cold.

Bottle Warmer

Like the wipes warmer, a bottle warmer is unnecessary. Some parents give their baby a bottle at room temperature; others go straight for cold.

While a warm bottle can be more pleasant for a baby to drink, there are other ways to warm it up, like placing it in a cup of warm or hot water for a few minutes.

Just be sure never to put the bottle in the microwave, as this can produce hot spots, which can burn your baby’s mouth.

Changing Table

Changing tables are appealing because they provide a place to keep all your changing essentials, such as diapers, creams, and wipes. However, buying a changing table is unnecessary. If you do not have the space for one, don’t be afraid to just opt out of buying it.

There are easier methods than walking to the changing table whenever your baby needs to be changed. One option is keeping a changing basket in every main room. Load the basket with diapers, creams, wipes, and a changing pad.

Then, if your baby needs a diaper change, you can change them anywhere in the room, whether it’s a couch or floor. Plus, many parents have stated that this option is much more comfortable for them than a changing table.

Diaper Pail

Diaper Genies do conceal the smell of a dirty diaper, which can be very nice. However, it isn’t necessary to buy a diaper pail. Instead, you can place dirty diapers in a plastic bag or take them outside to keep the smell away.

Baby Bathtub

A cute baby bathtub became extremely popular several years ago: the bath flower. While it’s adorable, it’s not strictly necessary to bathe your baby. Neither is a baby bathtub.

Newborn baths are simple to give and don’t necessarily require all the fancy add-ons. For this reason, many parents found that the bath flower was hardly used, bulky, and took up too much space.

An Expensive White Noise Machine

Some babies sleep better with noise, while others prefer complete silence. Whatever the case, you do not need an expensive white noise machine. Mainly since you have yet to determine if your baby will even like it.

If your baby prefers noise to sleep, it may be more economical to play white noise on your phone or Alexa. Additionally, stores like Walmart or Target sell white noise machines that won’t break the bank.

All The Fancy Baby Equipment

Yes, you need a safe place to put your baby when you can’t hold them. However, don’t feel like you need all the baby things, including a baby swing, bouncer, bouncy seat, etc.

Having one or two specific safe places to put your baby when you can’t hold them is more than enough.

Dreft (or Special Detergent)

Dreft is a special baby detergent that some prefer to use to wash their newborn clothes. However, buying a completely different detergent for your baby for the first few years of their life is also unnecessary. Instead, opt for a family detergent that is hypoallergenic and scent-free.

Special Baby Food Processor

For parents making their own baby food, buying a special baby food processor is unnecessary. Instead, you can use a magic bullet or your food processor or blender if you already have one.

Additionally, regular ice trays work just as well for freezing the baby food for later.

Special Drying Racks

Although the special drying racks are cute, they aren’t a must-have. When washing your baby’s bottles and utensils, a typical drying rack or kitchen towel will suffice.

In Conclusion

There are so many baby items on the market today that it’s difficult to know exactly what essential new parent products are. As a new parent, you want the very best for your baby, but that doesn’t always mean stocking up on the most expensive items that take up space in your home.

Instead, stick with the necessities. After all, your baby will outgrow these items by their first or second birthday, and they will be on to needing something else. When you look back on your child’s babyhood, you won’t remember everything they had or didn’t have. Instead, you will focus on how loved your child is and how much joy they have brought you.

8. Motor City Pizza Co.

Chalk one up for Detroit-style pizza right out of the gate. Motor City Pizza is a real winner, with its thick, rectangular crust and deep dish canvas ready for any kind of toppings you can imagine. Choose from pepperoni, cheese, supreme and all the other trusty topping standbys.

With options like “Three Meat” and “Ultimate Meat,” or “Supreme” and “Ultimate Supreme,” Motor City proves it’s not here to play. Give the people options and a Detroit-size amount of flavor, and they will come. Find it at Wal-Mart, Costco, Target, Kroger, and other big-box food retailers.

7. Home Run Inn

Step up to the plate — literally — and enjoy this winner-winner pizza dinner. While there are, in fact, Home Run Inn restaurants, you needn’t live near one to enjoy this perennial favorite pizza. The signature-style crust, described as “tavern-style buttery and flaky,” most Midwesterners will agree this is a worthy top 10 contender in the frozen pizza space.

There’s nothing over-the-top in the way of flavor options. Look for standards like pepperoni, sausage, veggie and the like, but big bonus points for the brand for providing an “inspiration” section of delicious toppers to garnish your pie. A real dinger, I tell ya.

6. DiGiorno Pizzeria Thin Hand-Tossed Margherita

You may remember the commercials from back in the day: “It’s not delivery. It’s DiGiorno.” That is the key indicator of what you can expect from this fan favorite. DiGiorno also leads the pack in terms of options … SO. Many. Options. Rising crust (pictured), stuffed crust, hand-tossed, thin crust, gluten-free, Detroit-style, classic … and those are just the crust options, which some people will argue is the most important part of the pizza.

Regardless, the Pizzeria Thin Hand-Tossed Margherita pizza is a lighter alternative and features a thin stone-baked crust and is topped with Roma tomatoes, basil and four types of cheese. SO good!

5. Newman’s Own Thin & Crispy Sausage & Pepperoni

You don’t have to be the president of the Paul Newman Fan Club to appreciate his complete line of products and the philanthropic bent of the brand. But you do have to have amazing taste in frozen pizza to appreciate the beauty of the Newman’s Own Thin & Crispy Sausage & Pepperoni (Supreme being a VERY close second).

Its thin crust is crispy yet understated at once. Piled high with Italian sausage and uncured pepperoni, this one is a real stand-out in the freezer section.

4. Tombstone Cheese Pizza

Some folks will fondly remember the classic Tombstone cheese pizza from their childhood. This pizza definitely conjures nostalgic feelings when you pop one in the oven. With plenty of cheese on a crust of the perfect width, you simply cannot go wrong with this pizza.

3. Totino’s

While the absolute best Totino’s flavor — Mexican — is no longer available at the local grocer, the supreme and triple cheese are still delicious. It’s a standout in the frozen pizza space, and it has staying power for a reason. Because it’s THAT good.

2. Red Baron Brick Oven Pepperoni

Red Baron Brick Oven Pepperoni is a pretty standard but nonetheless stellar frozen pizza brand, and it’s available at a very affordable price point. The crust is the perfect thickness, and there is just the right amount of cheese and pepperoni.

1. Screamin’ Sicilian Supremus Maximus

Alright, when you want delivery-caliber pizza cooked on the fly in the comfort of home and for a slightly less than delivery, the Screamin’ Sicilian Supremus Maximus is the only way to go. There is absolutely NO skimping on toppings.

In fact, there is SUCH a bounty of meats and veggies atop a thick bed of cheese that they drop off onto your plate, leaving you with a great last bite as you scoop them up.

Avocado Slicer

Avocados are highly nutritious and come with many health benefits, but peeling and cutting them can be inconvenient. This tool allows you to peel and slice an avocado efficiently. Although not all avocado slicers come with this function, many also come with a pit remover so there’s no more struggling with the pit when you want to make avocado toast or guacamole.

Tea Strainer

Many people who drink tea are used to purchasing tea bags at the store. However, many tea lovers prefer to purchase loose-leaf tea. When making loose-leaf tea, you need some kind of a tea strainer. This tool allows you to steep your tea, easily remove the strainer, and dump out the leaves when you’re finished.

Pastry Cutter

Not everyone is familiar with this kitchen tool but for those who love to bake, it’s useful to have on hand. A pastry cutter is used to make different types of dough. The purpose of a pastry cutter is to cut the butter or other fat into the flour. While you can use your hands to do this, this tool makes this process less messy while still effectively cutting the fat into the flour.

Garlic Press

Like many other ingredients used for cooking, garlic tastes best when it’s fresh. You certainly can’t beat the convenience of buying minced garlic, but if you’re cooking with fresh garlic cloves, a garlic press is a handy tool to have in the kitchen.

This tool allows you to easily mince garlic without having to chop it. It’s a plus that you don’t have to worry about your hands smelling like garlic for days after using this tool.

Meat Tenderizer

Meat tenderizers come in different varieties, but the simplest type of meat tenderizer is the one that looks like a spiky hammer. This kitchen tool might not be as common nowadays, but they’re still used in many kitchens to tenderize various types of meat before cooking it.

You can also use a meat tenderizer for other purposes in the kitchen such as crushing spices, and nuts, or baking ingredients like graham crackers or chocolate.

Mortar and Pestle

Considering how many ingredients you can buy pre-ground or crushed, not many people own a mortar and pestle unless they’re serious about cooking with fresh ingredients. Even though they’re not as common nowadays, a mortar and pestle is still one of the most effective ways to grind, smash, or crush ingredients such as herbs or garlic.

Corn Holders

If you plan on serving corn on the cob, there’s nothing wrong with picking up the corn with your hands. However, this simple tool is great to have if you serve corn often. Corn holders allow you to hold corn on the cob without having to get your hands dirty. These holders can be especially useful if you’ve added melted butter, cheese, or other toppings to your corn.

Egg Separator

There are numerous recipes out there that call for egg whites or egg yolks. This requires you to separate the yolk from the egg whites and trying to do it with your hands or by using the shell can lead to a mess. This egg separator is a simple way to perfectly separate your egg whites and yolk every time without any hassle.

Milk Frother

If you don’t have one yourself, you’ve likely seen a milk frother before and wondered what it was used for. Battery-powered milk frothers are pretty inexpensive but they’re a great way to make your beverages more fancy. You can use this tool to froth your milk to add to your morning coffee or tea. You can even use it to make a delicious cup of chocolate milk.

Bench Scraper

Bench scrapers, also sometimes known as multi-purpose scrapers, are great for all kinds of tasks in the kitchen. You can use a bench scraper to chop vegetables, cut dough, or even slice pizza. If you’re making something that has a particularly wet or sticky dough, you can use the bench scraper to pick up the dough and shape it properly.

Strawberry Stem Remover

While you can cut the stem off of strawberries with a knife, if you’re baking with strawberries, this kind of tool can be incredibly helpful. A strawberry huller or stem remover can be used for easily scooping out the stem of a strawberry, which is perfect if you’re preparing strawberries to add to a dessert or if you’re preparing a snack for your young kids.

Cookie Press

You’re likely familiar with cookie cutters but a cookie press is another way to make cookies in fun shapes in the kitchen. A cookie press is typically used to make cookies that are smaller and thinner than cookies you make with a cookie cutter. This kitchen tool is simple to use and they come in many different designs.

Pasta Maker

If you’ve never made pasta at home before, you might not know what this contraption is for. While most people buy dry pasta at the store to cook at home, it can also be fun to make your own pasta with tools such as this handheld pasta maker. After making the pasta dough, this kitchen tool allows you to make pasta in different shapes.

Salad Spinner

A salad spinner allows you to dry off lettuce, spinach, or other greens before you make a salad to avoid having soggy vegetables. After washing your greens, you can place them in the salad spinner and remove most of the water. You can also use it for sliced vegetables as well, such as peppers or zucchini.

Nutmeg Grater

If you generally buy ground spices, you wouldn’t believe the difference in how they taste when you grind spices yourself. Freshly ground spices have a lot more flavor and taste fresher than store-bought spices. A nutmeg grater makes it easy to grind your nutmeg, no matter what kind of recipe you’re using it in. It also doesn’t take up too much space so it’s easy to keep in one of your kitchen drawers.

Spiralizer

Sprializing vegetables isn’t a necessity in most recipes but it makes life in the kitchen more fun. A spiralizer is a kitchen tool that allows you to quickly spiralize vegetables or fruits that you can add to salads or stir-fries. Certain vegetables, like zucchini, can also be a low-carb substitute for pasta and a spiralizer allows you to make your zucchini noodles to use instead of spaghetti or linguini.

Steamer Basket

Considering you can steam many store-bought vegetables in the bag they come in, you might not have a separate tool for steaming your vegetables. However, a steamer basket can be handy if you buy fresh vegetables that don’t come in a bag. There are many types of steamers out there, but these collapsible stainless steel steamer baskets save space by collapsing into a smaller size for easy storage.

Egg Cooker

There are plenty of ways to cook eggs that don’t require any fancy tools. However, if you cook a lot of eggs in your home, this egg cooker can be a helpful kitchen tool to have around. Egg cookers are a kitchen tool that cooks eggs with a steaming process. They allow you to make soft or hard-boiled eggs without having to boil them.

Potato Cutter

There are many ways to cook potatoes but if you’re planning on making french fries, it can be challenging to cut them right. If you’re a fan of crinkle-cut fries, this tool makes it easy to cut your potatoes into crinkle shapes so you can bake, fry, or air-fry your potatoes and make the perfect crinkle-cut potatoes at home.

Sugar Duster

When you’re sprinkling powdered sugar on a dessert, it’s not easy to get the amount right. While you can choose to use a spoon to sprinkle your sugar, it often leads to uneven dusting. This sugar duster is the perfect way to spread an even amount of powdered sugar for tasty and beautiful desserts made at home.

The Big Boss – Foster Freeze

Don’t go bacon my heart! Foster Freeze’s famous burger is the Big Boss. Bite into a juicy beef patty with pickles, lettuce, Swiss and American cheese, tomato, bacon, and Fosters sauce topped with crispy onion rings. 

Cheeseburger – Foster Freeze

A burger without cheese is like a hug without a squeeze. Adding cheese to a burger gives it a gooey and creamy texture that complements the other ingredients. It enhances the taste of the burger, making it a delicious and satisfying meal. In addition, don’t forget to try the Oreo Twister.

Avocado Burger – Fabulous Burgers

Burger = good, cheeseburger = better, and bacon, avo, cheeseburger = the bomb. Treat yourself to a ¼ lb hamburger patty with cheese, tomato, bacon, lettuce, creamy avocado, onions, and dressing.

This is one of the best burgers on the menu. You will find a pressed patty, onion, American cheese, lettuce, pickle, tomato, and Irv’s sauce on the toasted bun. The tater tots and onion rings are definitely worth ordering too.

Turkey Burger – Irv’s Burgers

A secret burger spot that is better than In-N-Out is Irv’s Burgers; it’s definitely worth stopping by. The staff is friendly; you can dine inside or outside and order takeout. The turkey burger is one of our favorites; it’s juicy and not dry. It comes with cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, Irv’s sauce, and hatch green chilies. The chilis have a bit of heat with a fruity, grassy, smoky flavor.

Napoleon – The Standing Room Restaurants

This is a small hole-in-the-wall restaurant located behind a liquor store. They have a nice variety of burgers. The Napoleon is huge and totally worth it.

In Conclusion

The top-rated small towns on this list are perfect to visit. Take a stroll down a quiet street, sip some delicious coffee in a quiet coffee shop, and get to know the small-town families in these towns. Who knows, you may decide to pick up and move to one of these top-rated towns. (Check out these 22 Historic Neighborhoods Where Houses are Less Than 100,000.)

Wendy’s

Wendy’s is quickly becoming our go-to burger spot, and it’s the same for many others. Wendy’s just seems to take more pride in their food than many other popular burger restaurants. Plus, they have a nice variety. Many people also believe that their fries are also better than McDonalds and many other burger joints.

The Burger to Try

While just about everything is good at Wendy’s, if it’s your first time going, try the Baconator. Critics and customers agree that this sandwich has an incredible flavor profile. Most people also like that it’s actually covered with a generous amount of bacon. This burger is one of the main reasons to ever go to Wendy’s.

Burger King

According to QSR Magazine, Burger King continues to be the third most popular go-to burger spot in America. Burger King is slowly taking McDonald’s spot on our all-time favorite list. First of all, the fries just might be the best of any fast food restaurant. They also have a great variety, with more items being added all of the time.

The Burger to Try

If you’re coming here for the first time, start with what makes the restaurant famous. Try a Whopper. The beef patty has a good amount of smokiness, the toppings are delicious, and the buns are just right. Get it with extra pickles and you’re in for a real treat.

Sonic Drive-In

This is another amazing burger restaurant that seems to sink under the radar, but they have some good options. The menu is very large and has something for everyone. Many of their burgers are simple, but they pack a lot of flavor. They also have great drink selections.

The Burger to Try

In our opinion, the best burger at Sonic is the Hickory BBQ Cheeseburger. The burger has a perfect combination of meat, mayonnaise, BBQ sauce, and pickles. Even if you’re not a huge BBQ fan, it’s still worth trying.

Jack in the Box

Another go-to burger spot to try when you want a lot of variety is Jack in the Box. The menu is relatively inexpensive, and there’s something for everyone. They’re always adding something new, and the meals are always consistently good.

The Burger to Try

In the past, the best sandwich at Jack in the Box was the Deli Trio but they don’t make that anymore. However, the Sourdough Jack is quickly replacing it. The sourdough buns are perfectly toasted. There are also tasty slices of bacon and tomatoes. You’ll also get a topping of ketchup and mayo. It makes for a perfect burger.

Whataburger

It’s a sad fact that Whataburger restaurants aren’t in every state. However, if you’re near one, you may find that they have your new favorite burgers. The menu here isn’t huge, but almost everything is worth ordering at least once. Many people also love their fries.

The Burger to Try

For our money, the best burger at Whataburger is the Bacon Blaze Jalapeño Double. This burger isn’t available all of the time, but try it if you get the chance. It has the perfect amount of bacon, jalapeños, and jalapeño ranch dressing. It’s hot but not so hot that it’s not enjoyable. Add a side of fries for the perfect lunch.

Culver’s

There are several tasty burgers at Culver’s restaurants, including the Butter Burger that put the restaurant on the map. However, they also have other dishes and ice cream. This is another restaurant that isn’t found everywhere but it’s worth a try if you find it.

The Burger to Try

If you go to Culver’s, start by getting the Butter Burger. It is made from never-frozen meat, so it’s as fresh as you’ll get. It also comes with a buttered bun that you won’t get anywhere else. Some people consider the Butter Burger to be the best burger ever made. There’s also the Culver’s Deluxe, which has tasty toppings and is worth a try. 

Five Guys

This is another go-to burger spot that often falls under the radar. They offer burgers, hot dogs, fries, milkshakes, and more. They specialize in hamburgers, cheeseburgers, and bacon. The hot dogs are also pretty good. Try it once, and it may become your new favorite.

The Burger to Try

There aren’t many different burgers at Five Guys, but they’re all worth a try. If you can choose only one, go for the Bacon Cheeseburger. Many restaurants have cheeseburgers, but this one has the best cheese of them all and it’s perfectly placed on the sandwich. There’s also crispy bacon, perfect pickles, and tasty buns.

Hardee’s

Hardee’s is a great burger joint that has many great options. It’s more than just burgers. They also have chicken platters, biscuits, breakfast platters, and more. It’s more like good home cooking in a restaurant, and it’s worth a try. The fries are great as well without the need for condiments.

The Burger to Try

Of the options at Hardee’s, our favorite is the Bacon Cheeseburger. This burger has some of the best bacon of any sandwich on this list. It’s perfectly crisp. The cheese is especially gooey, and the beef is top-notch. Get it with a side of fries.

In-N-Out Burger

In-N-Out Burger is often in the discussion of the best burger restaurants of all time. In fact, they were responsible for the first drive-through microphone for ordering. They also have one of the best menus on the planet. There are only a few menu options, but they’re all amazing. Stop by one if you’re lucky enough to have the restaurant in your state.

The Burger to Try

You really only have three options at In-N-Out. If you can only choose one, go with the standard Double-Double. It has two beef patties, two slices of cheese, and perfectly browned buns. Best of all, this and all the other burgers here are made fresh. You can even see them cut the fries from potatoes while you wait.

Shake Shack

Shake Shack is a great place to go if you want a delicious milkshake and a great atmosphere. It’s also one of the best go-to burger spots in town. There’s also a big menu of tasty treats, from burgers to chicken sandwiches and glorious French fries. You could eat there every day, and it would never get old.

The Burger to Try

There are countless tasty burgers to try at Shake Shack. However, our very favorite is the Shack Stack. This one is different than many others on this list because, in addition to a juicy beef patty, it also has a huge, fried portobello mushroom on it. Even if you don’t love mushrooms, this one is worth a try.

What is a Tiny Home Community?

A tiny home community is similar to an RV park. It is a place to park a tiny home. Additionally, not all tiny homes have wheels, which means you can build your tiny home and place it on the community’s lot or rent it out in the community.

A tiny home will be a home that is less than 400 square feet (though there are larger models that work well for families.) A tiny home community may be an excellent choice for families who want to adopt a minimalistic and simplistic lifestyle.

Pros of Living in a Tiny Home Community

Like anything, tiny home living comes with a wide range of pros and cons, especially if you are living with a family. While it would be difficult for a rather large family (say, six or more people) to live comfortably in a tiny home, those with a smaller family can make it work.

When a family chooses to live in a tiny home, they may get to keep more of their income. This can make the price of living feel more affordable. Tiny homes are known to be more affordable than traditional housing.

Since the tiny home is small, living in one with a family encourages closeness and together time and allows you to prioritize your family. Additionally, tiny homes can be flexible, especially on wheels. This means that living in a portable tiny home allows you to pick up and travel nationwide.

Living in a tiny home with a family also will encourage your children to get outside more. There will be less space to play, meaning running outside to get exercise becomes second nature. Furthermore, since you can’t hoard much in a tiny home, living in one encourages you to purge and downsize, more naturally adapting to a minimalistic lifestyle.

Cons of Living in a Tiny Home Community

Of course, living in a tiny home also comes with some cons. It requires you to be more patient and flexible, especially if you are living there with children. Your organization skills must be impeccable or, at the very least, grown. You can adopt rules such as “a place for everything, and everything in its place.”

Plus, having to clean up often will help your children learn to fine-turn their clean-up skills.

Families may struggle to get alone time away from others, especially if needed. Parents may have to plan more intimate time together as well, given that there are not a lot of private spaces in a tiny home.

Can a Family Live in a Tiny Home?

A family can live in a tiny home; several families have proven this true. However, it takes quite a bit of dedication, work, and intentionality. Most tiny homes can comfortably fit two to four people. If you have more than one or two children, you may need to look for communities that accommodate or offer larger tiny home models.

Yet, for many, the call to minimalism and simplicity is well worth the sacrifices they make to downsize. Now, let’s take a look at 14 tiny home communities for families.

Jollibee

Jollibee is a fast food chain based out of the Philippines that now has 78 locations in the U.S. While this restaurant does serve other items, such as pasta and burgers, it’s known for its Chickenjoy Fried Chicken.

What makes it stand out

Jollibee has over 1,000 store locations across the globe, but it’s starting to grow in the U.S. as well. Despite the many other delicious items on the menu, they’re best known for what they call the Chickenjoy, which is their signature fried chicken. Their fried chicken is juicy, crunchy, and full of flavor. You can order it in buckets with sides such as fries, mashed potatoes, or Jolly Spaghetti.

Krispy Krunchy Chicken

Krispy Krunchy Chicken serves Cajun fried chicken that’s freshly made and hand-breaded. Although most of the locations are located within a gas station, they have some of the most highly rated chicken tenders out of any fast food restaurant.

What makes it stand out

A gas station may seem like a strange place to find some of the best fried chicken in town, but anyone who has tried Krispy Krunchy Chicken will tell you how good it is. The first Krispy Krunchy Chicken was opened inside a convenience store in Louisiana.

There are over 3,000 locations today and 97% of them are in gas stations. No matter the location, the hand-breaded fried chicken from Krispy Krunchy Chicken is worth the stop.

Raising Cane’s

Raising Cane’s is a fried chicken restaurant that was started in Louisiana. The restaurant has grown significantly since the first location opened in 1996 and there are now over 800 different locations nationwide.

What makes it stand out

Popeyes

Popeyes is one of the most popular fried chicken spots out there. This fried chicken restaurant is known for its famous fried chicken and biscuits. Popeyes was created in Louisiana and has now grown to be one of the biggest fried chicken chains in the country.

What makes it stand out

Popeyes has some of the best fried chicken out of any fast food restaurant. When you eat the delicious, buttery fried chicken from Popeyes, every bite has the perfect amount of crunch. The buttermilk coating on the fried chicken keeps the chicken juicy without sacrificing the crispy breading on the outside.

KFC

KFC was the first fast food restaurant known for serving fried chicken on the menu. Compared to many other restaurants that serve meals you can eat on the go, KFC serves family-style meals with fried chicken and delicious sides.

What makes it stand out

KFC was not only the first fast food restaurant known for its fried chicken but it has also grown into one of the most recognized and well-known fried chicken restaurants. What makes KFC fried chicken stand out from the rest is the seasoning they use on their chicken. The restaurant is also known for its delicious sides like macaroni and cheese, mashed potatoes, and coleslaw.

Zaxby’s

Zaxby’s is another fast food restaurant that specializes in different types of fried chicken. The first Zaxby’s location opened in Georgia in 1990 and the chain has since grown to over 900 locations across the country.

What makes it stand out

Zaxby’s is known for its chicken fingers, chicken wings, and signature sauces for dipping. When you order from Zaxby’s, you can choose to have your chicken fingers tossed in a variety of sauces. They have different options such as hot honey mustard, barbecue, and buffalo garlic blaze. Zaxby’s also offers chicken finger plates that include fries, coleslaw, and Texas toast.

Chick-fil-A

There’s no doubt Chick-fil-A is one of the top fast-food restaurants in the country. It’s known for its excellent service and delicious chicken sandwich. You can’t go wrong when you order chicken nuggets, chicken strips, or a chicken sandwich from Chick-fil-A.

What makes it stand out

Aside from the delicious seasonings that go into the batter, the secret to the success of Chick-fil-A’s chicken is the fact that they pressure cook it. This is what keeps their chicken juicy in every bite. No matter what type of chicken you choose to order at Chick-fil-A, it’s delicious when dipped in the signature Chick-fil-A sauce.

Guthrie’s Chicken

Guthrie’s Chicken carries the name of the “original chicken finger restaurant.” This fried chicken restaurant was first created in Alabama and has been serving delicious chicken fingers since 1965.

What makes it stand out

Even though Guthrie’s only serves chicken fingers, there’s no need for any other meals on the menu. When you go to Guthrie’s, you can order what’s known as a “Gut Box,” which is a meal that contains the delicious signature chicken tenders, crispy crinkle cut fries, coleslaw, Texas toast, and Guthrie’s signature sauce.
