The Newest Fast Food Offenders
Taco
- 700 calories
- 30 grams of fat
- 2,100 mg sodium
It seems as though every item on Taco Bell's menu is dripping with cheese, sauce, or cheesy sauce. For a few years now, although they only started incorporating it onto their drive-thru menus as of late, Taco Bell has allowed you to order items "fresco."This translates to more salsa and veggies and less cheese foodstuffs. Prevent your gut from running to the border (and over) your belt. Say "fresco" at your next Taco Bell visit.
Heaviest Dessert
Dairy Queen Large Strawberry CheeseQuake Blizzard
- 930 calories
- 37 grams of fat
- 97 grams of sugar
So, what does go in a drinkable CheeseQuake? Mainly ice cream, strawberry syrup and hunks of cheesecake. Liquefied cheesecake ensures that your body won't know it has consumed twice its suggested amount of daily calories until it is too late.
Dessert is meant to be decadent. Not a dairy coma. By avoiding these fast food offenders you aren't denying yourself anything except poor health later in life. Search out tasty and healthier options the next time you need a meal on the go. You and your family are worth the extra time and expense.
