Oh my...after being on the road for over 25 days last month and by the end of it all feeling like what we call "food-ed out" {the state we are in when we are forced to eat food prepared out of our home ;} I am really glad that we made an effort to make better choices when we ordered off the menus. I just found this list today and HAD TO share it with you and basically re-post it here on my blog so that I have it close at hand at all times. All of these items are loaded with so much fat, sugar, and sodium that eating any of the foods in this article on a daily basis could destroy all of our hard work and best intentions of eating healthy.
1. Worst Meal in America
Carl’s Jr. Six Dollar Guacamole Bacon Burger with Medium Natural Cut Fries and 32-oz Coke
1,810 calories - 92 g fat (29.5 g saturated, 2 g trans) - 3,450 mg sodium
Of all the gut-growing, heart-threatening, life-shortening burgers in the drive-thru world, there is none whose damage to your general well-being is as potentially catastrophic as this. A bit of perspective is in order: This meal has the caloric equivalent of 9 Krispy Kreme Original Glazed doughnuts, the saturated fat equivalent of 30 strips of bacon, and the salt equivalent of 10 large orders of McDonald’s French fries!
