Wanna Eat Healthy tonight? Fast food? You bet..

As I’m sitting here and my stomach is rumbling, I’m going to do probably the worst thing that I could think of.. write about food. I think I’m nuts.

I want to advise you of (based on their own nutritional facts) the best and worst foods you can get at your favorite (or not) Fast Food restaurants!

I must admit, I was shocked when I found out the healthiest item on McDonalds menu… is a hamburger. However I’m relieved that my Wendy’s Chili which I love, is the best thing on Wendy’s menu.. hmm.. I may pick some up on the way home and put it on some rice.. love that stuff!

Here are the results for McDonalds and my fav.. Wendys. (images and values from lifehacker)
