Few things in life give us greater pleasure than quenching our hunger with some freshly made fast food. But whether it's a bag of hot, crispy fries, a juicy burger, or a giant slushy, more often than not, you're signing up to indulge. And you can assume that the better something tastes, the more nutritionally devastating secrets it holds.
"These four things are contributors to heart disease when consumed in excess," Goodson explained. "And typically when foods are extremely high in these categories, they are likely low in fiber and other nutrients. A good rule of thumb is that if you are eating half your daily calories and more than half of the recommended daily fat and sodium intake in one item, it is likely not the best choice."

That’s beautiful.
Popeyes makes the best chicken sandwich
The oatmeal ain’t bad
Love me some In n Out
True. However none of these death-creations has any relationship with the term ‘moderation’.
How come the stuff you get in the store never looks like the promotional photos?
I could do without the chicken patty
That is a giant amount of food. Did you eat all that?
you think like me!
Yum!
Chicken stops being good for you the minute you bread it and deep fry it. IE the minute you make it taste good.
Which food exactly should I eat so that I will live forever?
Amen & Hallelujah! I struggle to understand why “dieticians” and the US government still push the Saturated Fat Fallacy.
