Table of contents for Eating Right On The Go
Today’s post features a healthy food choice from Burger King. Most, if not all fast food restaurants have healthy food choice alternatives now. At Burger King one of these is the TenderGrill Chicken Sandwich. Just so you know. I don’t feature salads and stuff like that because in my opinion, if you want a salad you need to go to a salad bar. But that is just my opinion. Here are the numbers for Burger King:
Tendergrill Chicken Sandwich w/ Mayo and a small onion ring: Calories: 650; Fat: 26g; Sat Fat: 5g; Trans Fat: 1.5g; Chol: 75mg; Sodium: 1390mg; Total Carb: 67; Dietary Fiber: 6g; Total Sugars: 9g; Protein: 39g.
Tendergrill Chicken Sandwich w/o Mayo and a small onion ring: Calories: 540; Fat: 14g; Sat Fat: 3g; Trans Fat: 0g; Chol: 70mg; Sodium: 1300mg; Total Carb: 67; Dietary Fiber: 6g; Total Sugars: 9g; Protein: 38g.
Two things I want to talk about with respect to this meal. First, notice the huge difference between the meal with mayo and the meal without mayo. It is considerable. If you use honey mustard the caloric count is cut in half, although the sugar count will increase. It all depends on your dietary needs. The point is you need to be cognizant of these types of things.
Most people mess up with respect to getting healthy food choices at fast food restaurants are the side items. What I like about Burger King is they offer a small onion ring that isn’t a deal breaker with respect to eating healthy. OK, that’s it. Please leave comments if you feel this was helpful. And remember…Get Healthy!! Your Life Depends on It!!
