Is fast food in America actually cheap or does this come from people who don't know how to cook with cheap ingredients and compare it to microwave dinners and such?

50/50.
Some of the value menu items are good deals, like little sliders or burritos for $1-2. But for the most part, fast food is about as expensive as a "regular" restaurant these days if you actually get like a full meal.
Gonna have to go with Cookout personally. Very cheap and tastes good for the price!
In n out, chick fil a, wendys, and mcdonalds
Aside from ultra-local burger place, it’s Del Taco. I used to be exclusively Taco Bell, but for the past 5 years or so it’s been the reverse. Deal Taco tasted better, better variety and loads their tacos up with more ingredients.
My go-to is an independent place near me that does excellent falafel. They do kebabs and fried chicken too, but that's more so-so.
There's no KFC here. A local chain "Fly Chicken" is similar, except better (IMO) but also more expensive. 13.50€ for 10pcs hot wings. Norway is expensive in general.
