Always leaders in dietary excellence, Burger King has come out with a new kids’ menu.  The menu consists of three different meals, each of which is supposed to be lower in fact, sodium, and have fewer than 560 calories.  Here is a list of the meals, taken from the Burger King website:

* Hamburger with BKTM Fresh Apple Fries, low-fat caramel dipping sauce and calcium-fortified MINUTE MAID® Apple Juice;
* New BK BURGER SHOTS® with BKTM Fresh Apple Fries, low-fat caramel dipping sauce and calcium-fortified MINUTE MAID® Apple Juice; and
* 4-pce CHICKEN TENDERS® (reformulated to be reduced-sodium) with BKTM Fresh Apple Fries, low-fat caramel dipping sauce and HERSHEY’S® Fat Free White Milk.

Each of the meals is supposed to get no more than 30 per cent of its calories from fat, and 10 per cent from added sugars.  There also must be less than 600 milligrams of sodium.

Sounds like a great initiative.  However, since when are FRIED APPLES a healthy alternative?  Read more…

The ads had been released in Europe, where the chain’s new Tex-Mex style burger - featuring chili and spicy mayonnaise – was being unveiled.

Ever cooked bacon, then smelled like bacon for three days afterward and wished you could smell like bacon forever?  No?  That’s just me?  Oh, well Burger King thought something similar, so they created Flame.  It’s a body spray that apparently captures the essence of their famous Whopper.  “Body spray of seduction, with a hint of flame-broiled meat,” they say.  You can buy it online or at Ricky’s, and it’s $4.  Oh, and it’s sold out online.  Go figure.  Check out the website…

We never stop. That’s why people rather grab something on the go or get a quick bite to eat than to have to stop everything.

The problem is that many fast food meals will affect your weight unless, of course, you know which are good and which are bad.

Here’s a list of the most healthy meals from the most popular fast food chains. They have healthy meals other than salad to offer and most have less than 400 calories.
