What are the healthiest "fast food" options?




So people ask me stuff like, " Um, dude do you think this is better than mcdonalds? Or is taco bell better than this?"


So right now im going to quickly discuss the best "fast food" places to go to, in order of healthiest to least healthiest. And when i say fast food im talking about places you can get the food, fast. Not just the stereotypical places like mcdonalds or taco bell. These are places i actually go, and i will order them in the rankings i would personally choose, if i was trying to get "fast food." And im going to just list the ones i would choose so some places will be left out.


1. Off the stick. Off the stick is like chipotle, but way healthier, they grill all their meat fresh and have tons of options of rice and vegetables. They have bowls, burritos, and other stuff. Unfortunately the only one i know of is in sunnyvale.


2. Chipotle. Chipotle is pretty basic, im sure they add some stuff to their rice that makes it less healthier than if you cooked it yourself, but fuck it, you need food fast in this case. Get a fucking chicken or steak bowl with preferably the brown rice and some peppers(fajitas), salsa, and lettuce is fine. If youre trying to lose weight get the bowl and not the burrito, too much flour. And no sour cream or cheese! We just want te protein and some carbs, not extra stuff that will make us fatter! And no corn! Incase you didnt know corn has alot of sugar in it, plus its all gmo and shit.

3. Togos. I like togos. I get a large whole wheat turkey and swiss cheese sandwich, no mayo! Mustard is fine. And i get the peppers, lettuce and tomato. Good amount of protein and the whole wheat bread isnt gonna be too bad for you. Keep it simple. Dont get some crazy meatball and cheese sandwich drizzled in olive oil.

4. Mcdonalds. Ok now were going down to the lower rankings. I try not to eat mcdonalds very often, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. Especially if you just did a hard workout and you realize you dont have any food at home and theres nothing else around. I usually get 3 double cheese burgers plain, thats just the meat and cheese. Theres like 25-26 grams of protein per burger, so thats like 75g protein. This will be fine for after a hard weight training session. But like i said this is a last resort!!! Sometimes i get a large fry too, but dont do that unless youve been eating good all week and have been making progress!

5. In and out. Pretty close to the same thing as mcdonalds, but try not to go crazy, no fucking animal style shit with secret animal sauce. I usually would get 2 double doubles, and maybe a fry. Like i said, this is last resort. Id choose off the stick, chipotle and togos before this!!!


6. Carls jr. Ok same thing as mcdonalds and in and out but id put it below them because i sense the quality of the meat, bread, and overall ingredients is a little lower. But same rule, get a basic burger with the meat. I think the "six dollar burger" is one. And if youre craving fries, do what you gotta do. But you better be eating healthy the rest of the week.
