Well, it’s off to Arby’s today! I actually stopped along a bike ride and had a regular roast beef sandwich and fed the top bun to the birds to save calories. Then, while looking up the detailed information on the internet, I vowed never to eat another fast food item without having researched it first for my Fast Food Survival Guide. I saw that it contained a small amount of Trans Fats! TRANS FATS??? That’s what started this journey I am calling “Danny’s Fast Food Survival Guide.” Needless to say, I didn’t include ANYTHING with Trans Fats or immense amounts of sodium on this list! Here are some of the healthiest options:
Apple Slices – 35 cals, 0g fat, 0g sat fat, 0mg Sodium, 9g carbs, 0g Protein Chopped Side Salad, 80 cals, 5g fat, 3g sat fat, 105mg Sodium, 5g carbs, 5g Protein Jr. Roast Beef, 210 cals, 6g fat, 2g sat fat, 520mg Sodium, 25g carbs, 12g Protein Jr. Turkey & Cheese Sandwich, 210 cals, 5g fat, 2g sat fat, 730mg Sodium, 24g carbs, 1g Protein Jr. Roast Beef Wheat, 210 cals, 6g fat, 2g sat fat, 520mg Sodium, 25g carbs, 12g Protein Chopped Farmhouse Salad-Roast Turkey, 240 cals, 13g fat, 7g sat fat, 760mg Sodium, 10g carbs, 22g Protein Jr. Deluxe Sandwich, 260 cals, 12g fat, 3g sat fat, 560mg Sodium, 26g carbs, 13g Protein Prime-Cut™ Chicken Tenders – 3 piece, 350 cals, 17g fat, 2.5g sat fat, 970mg Sodium, 25g carbs, 25g Protein
Here are my results:
Danny’s Choice: Chopped Farmhouse Salad – Roast Turkey
Runner up: Jr. Roast Beef Wheat
Honorable Mention: Jr. Roast Beef
Best Side: Apple Slices (Natural fruit ALWAYS takes first!)
Second Side: Chopped Side Salad
Danny’s Preferred Meal: Chopped Farmhouse Salad – Roast Turkey w/ Apple Slices Danny’s “on the go” Bike Meal: Jr. Roast Beef Wheat (and feed the top bun to the birds!) w/ Apple Slices
Please be careful when selecting salad dressings! They will often add so much fat, sugar and calories to your salad, making them almost as bad as a burger! When you can, hold the cheese and throw that top bun to the birds!
