The Worst Drive-Thru Foods in America

whataburger drive through

What I learned by reading this:
  • Avoid any sandwich made on honey wheat bread.
  • Stay away from the DQ Blizzard and opt for a small chocolate sundae instead.
  • You’d be better off eating two Quarter Pounders than McDonald's Large Triple Thick Chocolate Milkshake.
  • Skip biscuits at all costs.

That's some insane caloric intake. The sit-down chain restaurants aren't any better, and in some cases worse. The typical burger platter at Chili's packs about 1000 calories.

Yvonne,

I was surprised but here's what it says:

Worst "Healthy" Food

Arby's Roast Turkey and Swiss Market Fresh Sandwich
708 calories
29 g fat (8 g saturated fat)
1,676 mg sodium

Avoid any sandwich made on honey wheat bread: Two slices contain a staggering 361 calories and 68 grams of carbs. Cut those in half by sticking to a sesame bun.

Eat This Instead!
Chicken Cordon Blue Sandwich (grilled)
488 calories
18 g fat (4 g saturated fat)
1,560 mg sodium
