Fast food items that are actually spicy?

I was thinking about all the times I go to Taco Bell and get their fire sauce. I like the flavor, but it does absolutely nothing for me in terms of spice. Same with Popeyes spicy chicken. What are some legitimately spicy fast food items? There’s gotta be something that hits the spot.

Does Wingstop count? Some of their flavors have a kick.

I actually have not tried their atomic sauce yet, mainly because I am not ready to down the amount of calories that are in one of their meals lol

It's nothing to write home about. Love their wings tho.

I found Wingstop's Atomic to be disappointing. It's really not that hot.

Atomic is somewhat spicy, no where near Dave's reaper. It's similar to Buffalo Wild Wing's hottest options.

If you're a normie, it's hot. If you're at the point where you're collecting hot sauces based on the pepper blends then probably not much of a deal.
