Overview
Although not impossible, it is more of a challenge to eat healthy when going to a fast-food restaurant. In general, avoiding items that are deep fried is your best bet. Healthier choices include sandwiches with leaner protein (such as grilled chicken breast) that can be loaded with vegetables. Limit the extras such as cheese, bacon, and mayonnaise. Choose places that offer a variety of salads, soups, and vegetables to help maintain your best health.
