Fast Food Cheat Sheet

edited September 2024 in Food and Nutrition
I'm on the road a lot for work, which means lots of stopping at fast food usually. I finally decided to take the time and sit down and make myself a little cheat booklet that I could keep in my glove box. Of foods that are under 400 cal. It doesn't have everything, just places I figured I would most likely stop when I feel short on time.

Well, I thought I would share it, in case anyone else wanted to use it. Its pretty easy to put together. It prints out 6 pages (or 3 if you do front and back). you just fold all the sheets of paper in half, and staple together. Wa la, perfect size for the glove box.

PS- the "your" has been changed to "you're" lol. Now I just wish I had noticed before I printed them. :embarassed: :laugh:

    I know its kind of cheesy (with a little cover page lol) , but I put some together for my family and friends too who wanted one. So I wanted to make it a bit nicer than just bunch of charts.

    HA! I just noticed it! bah! I fixed that too the first time I did it (but it all came out too small to read! lol) So I had to start over and didn't notice!

    I'm on the road a lot for work, which means lots of stopping at fast food usually.

    I'm in the same boat. I typically drive 4 hours out of my 8 hour day. Since I'm forever forgetting to make myself lunch I'm usually left with drive-thru options. This is amazing, and I'm pretty sure you are my hero!

    Thank you so much for this! I am not on the road a lot, but I am busy a lot and sometimes it is just easier to run through a drive-thru. I have been carrying around all the little pamphlets you cna get at each restaurant, but this will be soooooo much easier and more efficient!!

    Thanks. Was just at Taco Bell yesterday and ordered my boys fruitista freezes and didn't get one because was unsure about the calories. Will definitely put this in the truck.:flowerforyou:

    That is so great! Thanks for sharing. I actually could have used this last week. I had a physical therapy appointment and then my daughter's doctor's appointment and when we were leaving she was so grumpy because she was hungry and tired but the only place that I could go to on base that I didn't have to get out of my car was McDonald's and I grabbed one of my usuals without thinking and it completely messed up my day!

    That's what always happens to me. I will be busy busy busy...then next thing you know everyone in the car is grumpy and in need of food asap (or sometimes just me! lol). I remember when I ordered a 700 calorie salad! I got home and entered it in, and I was so mad. So that's when I decided I needed to have something in the car so if the restaurant doesn't have a nutritional info sheet I have something I can look at...because even what looks healthy isn't always...so annoying.
