Is there really such a thing as healthy fast food? While fast food restaurants do not necessarily offer the healthiest choices, most people find themselves dining out sometimes. How can you make the most of your fast food experience? The good news is that a lot of restaurants are adding healthier choices on their menus. You now have options to make your meal-on-the-go moderately nutritious. Remember portion control (do not super size), stay away from high fat and high calorie sauces and dressings or use them sparingly, and instead of soda, opt for water, low fat milk or tea that you can sweeten yourself. Also, knowing what menu options are healthier than others will aid you in making better choices.
