Pizza. You can get pizza at fast food pizza stands. They also LOVE their gelatto - italian ice cream. It is all over the place and people get it while walking down the street.
There is, for the most part here in Italy, McDonalds everywhere. Then, there are Burger Kings is some places. An Italian version of fast food, though, is Spizzico, which is fast food pizza and as far as I know, doesn’t exist in the states. Also, in most of the train stations, there is ChefExpress, which sell panini (sandwiches). I have actually seen vending machines selling pasta, believe it or not, and other more common vending machines sell a particular sandwich called tramezzini.
Other than that, almost all bars sell pastries in the morning and panini and coffee throughout the day, and this is the traditional fast food in Italy-it is not like McDonalds because the bars are privately owned, not chains.
During the winter season, there are always vendors in the street selling castagne, or roasted chestnuts.
Edit: Today I saw 3 more: PastaritO, PizzaritO, and AutoGrill (which is usually at rest stops on the autostrada, but I saw one in the city center too).
Pasta would be the most obvious.
they have a place called bisscoties and its like all pizza and pasta in fast food
