Which fast food spots have the best drive-thrus?
A new study reveals where you should go when you're hungry and on the go.
Food is often considered a universal language among humans far and wide.
Scores of foodies plan trips around certain restaurants, while date nights often focus on which trendy dinner to choose.
In line with all of this, WalletHub, the personal finance site, recently released a study ranking the top cities for foodies in the U.S.

The list — which was compiled using statistics on affordability, diversity, accessibility and quality — placed some major cities in the U.S. further down below the top 10.
Despite three cities in the Golden State making the top 10, Los Angeles came in at No. 13.
WalletHub analyst Cassie Happe told Fox News Digital that the top 10 locations haven't really changed over the last few years — but Orlando and Portland have continued to top the list.
"These two cities offer a plethora of options when it comes to what you can eat, as well as many diverse ingredients if you choose to cook at home," she said.

Chicago, Illinois, placed at No. 14, while Washington, D.C., was ranked at No. 17.
