    Good flavor? Herm...not sure you'll find that in any fast food joint!

    I like to get chicken nuggets from any place because of the protein. If you're more of a burger/sandwich person, get something without all the fixings, or order bunless.

    Also, I think every fast food chain has their nutrition facts published on the internet. I would just scour that info before heading someplace to order. That's what I do.

    Whopper Jr is pretty good, as is Wendy's chili. Supremes at Bojangles are like 90 cals each or something, if you get a side of green beans you can get out relatively low calorie. Definitely check out the nutrition boards on the restaurants' websites to find something.

    It all depends on where you're going and what your looking for. Most places have their nutrition info online also so I recommend looking at that but here is what I usually order...

    At Wendy's I go with either a small or large chili and a garden side salad w/o dressing. I pour the chili over the top

    At McDonald's I order a ceaser salad with grilled chicken and balsamic vinaigrette dressing and only use 1 pack

    At taco bell the steak or chicken fresco tacos are a good choice

    Subway I go with a 6 in ham and turkey on 9 grain wheat, no cheese and loaded with veggies and honey mustard.

    I always get either an unsweetened iced tea or a diet coke

    At Taco Bell I like to get two Spicy Doritos Locos Tacos.

    For Wendys, an order of Spicy Nuggets and a Chilli.

    If you get the turkey burger from carls jr with the lettuce wrap instead of a bun. no mayo or cheese & add mustard its pretty delicious and only 179 calories!!!

    Or wendys apple chicken salad...a half a salad with the pomegranate dressing & no nuts is under 200 calories

    chipotle. at least you know that the beef/chicken is coming from a better place and is using more natural ingredients. if you go through a drive thru odds are its the worst meat and processed to crap. ew.
