What is the best and worst fast food place to eat (health wise)?

Question

I was told taco bell was the worst and either wendy's or burger king were the best. meaning they have healthier choices. your thoughts?

Answer 1

It doesn't really matter which fast food place you go to. You have to be knowledgable about what kind of foods have what kind of fat.

If you get a burger from anywhere: it is probably going to be very high in fat, calories and cholesterol.
Can you tell if something has been deep fried?
Anything which has been deep fried in any way has a very high fat, calories and cholesterol content.
You can get a salad from anywhere: But Don't dare put any dressing on it from any fast food place: why? read the back. 100 calories a serving+ 3 servings= 300 calories. I think some also have like 24 grams of fat in just that packet.
Some dressings are more, some are less.
.. you have to know how many calories are in what you are eating and how many fat grams. That's basically what it comes down to.

I don't know how old you are, but I'm assuming you are a woman.
We really shouldn't be eating anymore than 1600-2000 (at the very most) calories and at most 15-20 grms of fat a day.
If you want to lose any weight at all, you should try to cut your calories down to 1200 or so and your fat intake down to no more than 10-12 grms.--- or even less if you want to lose weight faster, but then get back into healthy eating after you've lost the weight and keep it off through daily exercise.

Basically, you can eat anywhere if you know the kinds of foods you are eating that have what kind of calorie and fat content. -- IF you don't know anything about calories or fat, it is useless to say one place is better or worse than the other-- the judge has to be you through becoming a well informed consumer.

Answer 3

A single McDonald's Chocolate milkshake, 32 ounce size has 1,160 calories including 27 grams of fat. However that isn't the worst from McDonald's - a "Big breakfast platter with pancakes" is 1,150 calories and includes a whopping 60 grams of fat. By comparison, a Big Mac only has 540 calories and includes 29 grams of fat. A double-quarter pounder has 740 calories and includes 42 grams of fat. (the fact that some people think the Big Mac has the highest calories is part of the reason we have so many fat people now - they have no clue as to what they are eating - you really have to look this stuff up.) Skip over to Burger King and get a triple Whopper for 1,160 calories and 76 grams (!) of total fat - and that is before you add cheese!!!! Or try the Bacon Ultimate Cheeseburger from Jack In The Box with 937 calories and 65 grams of fat. Do you think Subway is always healthy? Try the foot long Chicken, Bacon Ranch - which has 1,140 calories and includes 56 grams of fat. Or the foot long Meatball marina weighs in at 1,160 calories and 46 grams of fat. Both of those are BEFORE you add cheese and sauce!

Answer 4

Subway = Best.

All the rest = Bad.

BurgerKing: VERY BAD - WESTERN BACON THINGY 500 FAT GRAMS!!
Mcdonalds: VERY BAD - BIG MAC 500 FAT GRAMS!!!!!!
Popeyes: Heartattack food.
Kentucky Fried Chicken: Death in a bucket.

Common sense peeps.

Wendy's is still bad, just less so. Most fast food places have sugar in everything (yes, even their salads contain sugar. It's disgusting.)

Watch SuperSizeMe. That should be required watching for everyone in the country.

Answer 5

Subway is the healthiest. All those other places aren't good for you at all. Most french fries no matter where they are sold have the same calories and fat. Wendy's and BK do have really healthy alternatives to fatty fries or burgers.

Answer 6

Well Subway is the healthiest by far......and the worst just might be KFC....they just got into some trouble for lying about how certain stuff was made and the fact that it is really, really bad for people..Although, we should all know, any fast food is not going to be as healthy as something prepared at home in a healthy manner.

Answer 7

Taco Bell is DEFINITELY the worst offender because virtually anything you get there is loaded with trans fat and saturated fat. There really are no healthy choices south of the border. For the best, that would probably be Subway...

Answer 8

I have read a couple books on the actual calories and stuff in the different restaurants and i have to say the worst are Dairy Queen and Mcdonalds, some of the stuff is ok its just the french fries are killers.

Answer 9

Best- Subway, self explanatory
Worst-McDonald's, dude look at the menu

Answer 10

Chinese is the fattest food out there. Fast food wise I'd say Rally's.
