    Jack in the Box salads are actually pretty tasty. They are closer to 600-700 cals, but they are HUGE so you can save half for later. They are very reasonable especially if you only use half the dressing.

    Starbucks is my other go-to place when I'm on the road because they always post all the nutrition information and have some pretty healthy choices. Their breakfast wraps are all about 300 calories and actually taste good.

    Mcdonald's premium grilled chicken sandwich is 350

    I was there last week and they told me they didn't have any grilled chicken sandwiches besides their bacon ranch chicken sandwich. Liars!!!! I wonder if it's a location or regional thing?

    I had a salad instead - the southwest one. It was good.

    OMG they totally lied to you lol...and if it is regional, you should move! lol

    McDonald's snack wraps aren't bad-grilled chicken.
    Also the fruit parfait.

    Fast food is typically low on nutrition and taste, and high on sodium and/or sugar and/or fat. I'd pack myself a lunch.

    Love all of these ideas!! Whoever posted this topic is genius ;-) lol But sodium is def the worst part about eating out regardless eating healthy or not. It is just unreal. Sodium is my worst enemy even at home ;-(

    Wendy's--

    Sour Cream and Chive Baked Potato (320 cals) + apple slices (40 cals) = 360 cals
    Small Chili (210 cals) + Garden Side Salad with Ranch dressing and croutons (210 cals) = 420 cals
    Full sized BLT Cobb Salad without dressing = 390 cals (they have various light/fat free dressings you can choose from)

    I often get the Fresco Softshell Chicken Tacos. Think it is 350 calories for both.
