    I don't do fast food because I have the convenience of the bodega. There's one like every two blocks. I keep saying I'm going to try burger king or mcdonalds again someday, mostly because of these threads...but I could go get a fresh burger and homemade fries so I don't.

    I've been on a Jersey Mike's roast beef and provolone kick lately and think I think that it is the best calorie-sensible fast food. Other nominations?

    McDonalds McDouble.


    Mcdoubles are my crack.

    Wendy's is my favorite because of their side options. The chili is packed with protein and their baked potatoes are good too. I can make an entire meal out of those healthy-ish sides, or at least choose one of those instead of french fries. When I was more of a carnivore than I am now, my go-to fast food meal for protein was a Wendy's double cheeseburger with a small chili for the side.

    The Taco Bell fresco menu is surprisingly good too, I find it comparable in calories and macros to stuff I would make at home. Plus, Taco Bell is amazing.

    Apple slices from McDonalds or buy a cooler fill it with ice and sliced fruit. Will be great nutritional value and faster than waiting in a drive in line.

    Hmmm, when I am hungry and want fast food for dinner a bag of apple slices isn't going to cut it.

    I am not a burger person, my fast food options would be Subway, a wrap from KFC or pizza.
    Not hard to fit into my calorie goals in sensible portion sizes - or at worst go slightly over. I don't eat fast food every day so my over days are balanced by under days and all is good.

    Absolutely Chipotle! It can be made to fit any nutritional goals.

    True, but they are famous for giving you more food than they should, so you're better off counting extra calories.

    Personally, if I can avoid it, I avoid fast food, except Panera and local places.

    Not seeing the problem here.... more food = better....


    BTW, if you do go to Chipotle, one spoon equals 3oz. So you can easily adjust your entry for more.
