I know fast food is bad but sometimes with 3 kids and on the run alot its a must. Are there any android apps that are good and let you know the calorie info before you buy something at fast food. If I know ahead of time I pack something or check online at home. My go to right now because they are next to each other is Arbys and Mcdonalds. 2 Arbys junior cheddar melts no bun (eat with a fork) for 150 calories and a mcdonalds parfait no granola for 130. What apps do you use?

    For Australia, you can find a lot of good information in the Calorie King app. They even have a list of fast food chains with calorie counts listed by chain and item.

    Good question. I looked up Calorie King like a poster suggested but its not in thr Android Market. It did suggest Fast Food Calorie Lookup and Restaurant Calorie Counter. I havent tried either yet but there were some positive reviews.

    I use a free app called "Restaurant Nutrition." It has most major chain restaurants calorie information. I use it a lot when traveling for work!

    I have an Iphone, maybe they don't do an android app for calorie king. It really is AU specific though.

    LOL yes but I am looking for one either that shows me everything at once or I love the ones where I can edit it (no bun ect) and it shows me the calories
