Least Healthful Fast Food Salad

Chick-fil-A Chick-n-Strips Salad with 1.06 oz. Buttermilk Ranch Dressing

630 calories
40 grams of fat
1,620 mg sodium

The primary problem is the buttermilk ranch dressing, which contributes a bulk of the fat to the overall content (particularly if you use more than the 1.06 ounces, which many people do). Ranch was great when you were a kid, usually used as a cloaking device to get vegetables into your mouth. But now that you're a grown-up, why don't you pass on the ranch and opt for a light vinaigrette that lets the flavors of your veggies shine!

Heaviest Fast Food Kids' Meal

Burger King Kids Double Cheeseburger and Kids Fries with Small Coke

790 calories
38 grams of fat
1,330 mg sodium

This meal contains almost an entire day's worth of saturated fat for an 8-year-old child. You're better off choosing a plain hamburger with lettuce and tomato and skipping the bun altogether and choosing a side of BK Fresh Apple Fries instead.

Everything we eat has alot of sodium and fat in it. There's a motto that I have, and I go by it. Once in a blue moon, or every now and then, you can eat some of this stuff, as long as its not everyday or all the time.
I cook dinner at home every nite, so once in a while for me, its a break from the kitchen. But its not all the time.

If I want to eat lean and healthy, I stay home. When I go out, I want a treat.

If someone is stupid enough to think the word "fresh" in a menu listing means low-calorie, they are beyond help anyway.

My husband is now on a diet....I cook for him. He has gone from 230 pounds down to 219 pounds because I cook what I know is a healthy meal. He is a diabetic also so he needs guidance. When you're a well informed shopper it's not hard to pick up the right foods that are healthy - easy to cook- and those foods you can cook ahead of time ie: chicken breast, broccoli, etc. etc. When he is hungery I just warm up these foods, but never use the Microwave since it destroys the vitamins and minerals.

Isn't this the same old crap the most of us health conscious people of the planet earth have been exposed to for more than 20 years? It is simply information that has been re-hashed and been regurgitated again and again.

What are the five newest fast food offenders? You tease us with the title but never come up with the offenders. Just lots of links that have nothing to do with the article. I'm sick of this S__t.
