Summary:
Discover healthier options at popular fast food restaurants to make better meal choices.---
Fast food might not always be your first choice, but sometimes life leaves you with limited options. Whether it's due to a hectic schedule or an unexpected change of plans, you might find yourself ordering your next meal at a drive-thru. While fast food is infamous for its high calorie and fat content, not everything on the menu is a nutritional nightmare. With a bit of savvy ordering, you can make healthier choices.
To keep your meal on the healthier side, steer clear of fat-laden sides like fries and shakes. Opt for broiled or grilled items instead. Here are some healthier choices at popular fast food spots:
- Burger King: Try the BK Broiler Chicken Sandwich or the Broiled Chicken Salad. If you're craving a Whopper, ask for it without sauce and cheese, and add your own ketchup. The sauces often contribute most to the calorie load.
- KFC: Go for the Tender Roast Chicken and choose skinless white meat. It's best to avoid fried chicken due to its high fat content.
- McDonald's: The Grilled Chicken Deluxe and Grilled Chicken Salad are solid choices. Since most other menu items are fried, these grilled options are your best bet.
- Subway: Opt for the Turkey Breast Sub or the Sweet Onion Teriyaki Chicken Sub. Items from their low-fat menu are generally good choices. Skip the cheese and heavy condiments like mayo, and stick to the 6-inch subs.
- Taco Bell: The Grilled Chicken Burrito and Grilled Chicken Soft Taco are good picks. Their grilled chicken items are typically healthier, but be cautious of added fattening sauces or fried ingredients.
- Wendy's: The Grilled Chicken Sandwich and Grilled Chicken Salad make for healthier selections. You can also enjoy a baked potato, but be mindful of your choice of toppings.
General Tips:
- Avoid Fried Foods: Items like French fries or onion rings can add up to 450 extra calories to your meal, which can be more than the calories in a signature burger.
- Skip High-Calorie Extras: Milkshakes and similar items can contain nearly as many calories as a burger. It's best to leave them off your order.
- Customize Your Order: Request your food without dressings, sauces, mayo, or cheese to avoid unnecessary fat and calories. You can add fat-free dressings or condiments like ketchup yourself.
Fast food doesn’t have to be entirely off-limits, even when you're watching your diet. Make it an occasional treat and always be conscious of what you order. When uncertain, go for broiled or grilled chicken items and select sides like salads or baked potatoes when you know they’re healthier options.
