I'm at burger king and looking at the various partially gelatinated, non-dairy, gum-based beverages and trying to decide which one would fit in to my new lifestyle.
Do you know which ones are clean and which aren't?

    Nothing safe at Burger King. I went on the website because I was thinking of trying the veggy burger and it has saturated fat. How does a veggy burger have saturated fat??????

    Corn oil in the patty, mayo on the sandwich. Saturated fat isn't just found in animal products; coconut oil has twice the amount found in lard.

    And to OP - how do you define "safe"? I doubt any of the beverages are going to attack.

    If you're concerned about what you eat why are you at Burger King to begin with?

    Ok sorry but I love the veggie burgers at burger king. I just eat them occasionally now as a treat. Haven't had one in months. But they are good. And not very high in calories if that's what you're concerned about.

    I don't eat there very often usually about 5 times a week

    sometimes in a hurry you have to stop at fast food whcih sucks.
    i would go with some sort of salad, im really not sure what they have bc i have not been to bk in quite some time. maybe with chicken on it, a dressing on the side.
    as far as beverages, i'd go with good old water (liquid calories to me aren't safe, and i hate the artificial sweeteners, they give me headaches and bladder flare ups).
    maybe even like a chicken sammich or something without the mayo?

    i wouldn't get the veg burger, they're morning star and those ingredients aren't the friendliest either

    Why are liquid calories unsafe? Now I'm a little concerned as I usually have a small pepsi with my chicken burger
    What do you mean by bladder flare up?

    Gallbladder flares are usually caused by fatty foods. Your best bet would to turn around and go somewhere else.

    Double Whopper
    Vanilla Shake

    All foods that fit within your macros are safe.

    As for cleanliness I used to work in the food service industry. That is entirely dependent on the manner and practices in which they prepare your food.

    Many fast food burgers have less calories than the chicken sandwich. Hold the mayo.

    Yup, this is what I do. Sometimes, I get risky and order TWO side salads, and cut the chicken breast up ;). Living on the wildside right there ;). Its a little high in sodium, but its reasonably healthyish (salad is a veg, and there's like four whole cherry tomatoes, if you get 2 salads, then there's 8!). Its the chicken that is so high in sodium.
    And, its gluten free. So, its got that going for it.

    Every time my bladder flares up, I find a toilet and get rid of the liquid causing the flare up. After that, I'm good to go.

    I like the Apple - (Grilled) Chicken - Cranberry salad, with your dressing of choice. I get the Apple Balsamic Vinagrette.

    Most of the carbs are in the dried (and possibly sweetened) cranberries, which you can pick out if you don't want them.

    I am Diabetic, and I find that I tolerate this salad & dressing pretty well, with fairly low Bgl at after-meal spikes.

    BTW - you can go to the MFP Database (Foods, Database) and look up everything they've got and see what fits your personal needs (if anything does).

    Liquid calories aren't safe because the are basically sugar-water, which will be metabolized into blood sugar more quickly than ANYTHING else. This causes extremely high (unsafe) Blood Glucose Level spikes, a Diabetic's worst ememy.

    I have sworn them off - but then I don't mind the artificial sweeteners like Sweet 'N Low, and I drink A LOT of iced tea and some Diet Sodas.

    Best wishes!
