Top 10 Worst Fast Food Meals in America

If you are on the go and in a hurry, sometimes it is hard to eat as healthy as you should. With all of the fast food options out there, people tend to eat way too many calories in a day. Even though it tastes really good and may even seem like it is a healthier choice, there are some surprising nutritional facts about every meal that people eat. There are so many bad choices in meals out there, but there is almost always a better choice that is healthier.
10. McDonald’s Big Breakfast with Large Biscuit, Hotcakes, Margarine, Syrup, and Milk
Nutritional Information: 1,470 calories,67 grams of fat (21.5g of saturated fat), 2,360 mg sodium
Some may think that eating a bigger breakfast will help get their metabolism going, but this meal is more than two thirds of the calories that you should eat in a day. This meal alone also has more than a day’s worth of saturated fat. The eggs are really the only good thing on the plate for you. The pancakes, biscuit, sausage, and hash brown are not going to help your body out at all.
Try This Instead: Egg McMuffin with Hash Browns and Milk


This only has 550 calories, 24.5 grams of fat (6 grams of saturated fat) , and



2,335 mg of sodium.
9.Domino’s Chicken Carbonara Breadbowl Pasta
Nutritional Information: 1,480 calories, 56 grams of fat(24 g of saturated fat), 2,220 mg sodium
This meal that may seem healthy, is just a big wad of pizza dough that has been hollowed out and stuffed with noodles, cream, and cheese. Half of the calories in this meal come from refined carbohydrates, and another third of the calories come from fat. That leaves very little room for any good nutrients such as fiber or protein.
Try This Instead: Domino’s Medium Hand Tossed Pizza with Grilled Chicken, Green Peppers,


and Shredded Parmesan (3 slices)


This choice is only 544 calories, 15 grams of fat( 5.5 grams of saturated fat) ,


1,190 mg sodium, and it has the same basic flavor as the pasta.
8.Dairy Queen Chicken Strip Basket (6 piece with country gravy) and a Medium Coke
Nutritional Information: 1,480 calories, 66 grams of fat, 3,650 mg sodium
Dairy Queen took an already unhealthy meal of deep- fried chicken and French fries and added Texas Toast and a side of gravy. Not only does this meal take up 70% of your daily calories, but it also contains way more than a day's worth of sodium.
Try This Instead: Dairy Queen Original Cheeseburger and Side Salad with Fat Free Italian



Dressing


This choice is only 440 calories, 18 grams of fat, and 1,300 mg of sodium
7. SuperSonic Double Cheeseburger with Ketchup, Small Fries, and Medium Coke
Nutritional Information: 1,520 calories, 86 grams of fat, 1,820 mg of sodium
This burger is definitely not worth all of those calories! This amount of calories is 75% of what your daily calorie intake should be and all it has on it is cheese and ketchup. There is also almost the amount of sodium that you should eat in a whole day in this one meal.
Try This Instead: Junior Chili Cheeseburger, Apple Slices with Dipping Sauce, and a Small Coke



This choice is only 550 calories, 24 grams of fat, and 740 mg of Sodium
6.Wedny's Dave's Hot'n Juicy 3/4 lb. Triple with Bacon with Small Fries and a Small Coke
Nutritional Information: 1,540 calories, 83 grams of fat, 2,370 mg sodium
It is really necessary for 3 slices of cheese, 3 hamburger patties, and 3 strips of bacon? Clearly this is not a wise choice considering it is loaded with sodium and saturated fat. It has 75% of one days calories and more than one days sodium in it. It has also been name one of the "Tran-fattiest Burgers" on any big chain fast food menu in America.
Try This Instead: Wendy's Jr. Hamburger, Small Chili, and a Medium Iced Tea



This only has 460 calories, 16 grams of fat, and 1,520 mg of sodium in it.
5. Quiznos Tuna Melt(Large) with Cheetos and a Small Pepsi
Nutritional Information: 1,850 calories, 111 grams of fat, 2,100 mg of sodium
Most people see this sandwich and think "Oh Tuna, it must be healthy". Well they are wrong. the tuna in this sandwich is in a sea of mayo. The amount of mayonnaise that they put into the tuna and on this sandwich is just absolutely repulsive. After eating this sandwich, you would only have about 200 calories left to eat that day, but you probably would have already eaten more than that before you ate this. This sandwich is one of the worst sandwiches in America.
Try This Instead: 2 Roadhouse Steak Sammies and Baked Lays



This option is almost 1000 calories less at 660 calories, 14 grams of fat, and



2,255 mg of sodium
4. KFC Half Spicy Crispy Chicken Meal with Macaroni and Cheese, Potato Wedges, and Biscuit and a 30 oz. Pepsi
Nutritional Information: 1,990 calories, 98 grams of fat, 4,390 mg of sodium
This chicken that is included in this meal is the worst part of the chicken for your body. KFC gives you 2 drumsticks and 2 thighs, which are all dark meat and therefore the fattiest part of the chicken. This meal takes up 90% of your daily calories and is almost twice as much sodium as you should have in one day.
Try This Instead: 2 Honey BBQ Snackers with Mashed Potatoes and Gravy



This meal only contains 560 calories, 10 grams of fat, and 1,470 mg of sodium
3.Burger King Large Triple Whooper with Cheese Value Meal with Fries and a Coke
Nutritional Information: 2,110 calories, 104 grams of fat, 2,270 mg of sodium
This Burger advertises that it is oversized yet people still tend to buy it. It has more than the daily calories and sodium that should be taken into your body. If you eat one of these once a week for a entire year, you will gain more than 30 pounds.
Try This Instead: Whopper Jr. (no mayo) and a 6 Piece Chicken Fries


This has the same exact taste that the other burger has for only 510 calories, 25


grams of fat, and 1,270 mg of sodium.
2. McDonald's Quarter Pounder with Cheese and Medium French Fries and a 22oz. Chocolate Shake
Nutritional Information: 2,140 calories, 83 grams of fat, 1,730 mg of sodium
Most People think that the quarter pounder is a much better option compared to the Big Mac, but in reality the Big Mac is only 20 calories more than the Quarter Pounder and it has 200mg of sodium less than the Quarter Pounder. This Burger doesn't really have anything good on it for our body. The Big Mac at least has a lot of lettuce that is healthy. This is a burger to skip out on when eating at McDonald's.
Try This Instead: 2 Honey Mustard Snack Wraps, and a Small Coke



This option is only 600 calories, 8 grams of fat, and 650mg of sodium
1. Five Guys Plain Cheeseburger and Large Fries
Nutritional Information: 2,304 calories, 127 grams of fat, 2,377mg of sodium
Although this burger may be one of the best burgers out there for a reasonable price, it is one of the worst burgers for your body. It has more than the calories and the sodium that you are supposed to eat in one day. This burger does not even have anything on it besides cheese. If you want any other toppings, you are adding even more calories, fat, and sodium.
Try This Instead: Five Guys Little Hamburger and a Little Fry



These are the smallest items on the menu and they still have 1,006 calories, 49



grams of fat, and 761mg of sodium, but it is definitely better than the other



option.


Even though you might have to eat at a fast food restaurant with many unhealthy options, there is always a better choice available for you. Just try to remember that the next time you go out to eat.
