McDonalds, Wendy's or Taco Bell? What works best for your family?

[Anonymous]

I am debating which of these provides the best nurishment for my children for those nights when I just don't feel like making dinner. Any thoughts? I'd appreciate any good feedback! Thanks!

if i had to chose i would say wendys or taco bel. I would never feed my kids macdonalds.

that said on those nights we choe healthier fast food like district taco or a sub shop.

On those nights we do Domino's thin crust pizza. It's much better than I expected.

I do subway, or something along those lines, actually.. but if I had to decide one of your options, I would probably choose Wendy's also.

pizza. all of those sound awful.

we do mcdonalds for snack sometimes - at least there are apples and milk with each meal.

Suprisingly Burger King. We get the veggie burgers and sweet potato fries.

Is this same poter who asked about putting lemon juice in her baby's hair? I smell some bored teenagers stirring up the pot on DCUM today.

I WOHM full time as an attorney and I don't buy my kids a lot of fast food for dinner.

Buy some sliced turkey breast at the deli. Put it on whole wheat/whole white wheat bread. Buy some peeled baby carrots and put that on the side. Give the kids a glass of milk.

If you can't even make a sandwich, rotiseree (sp?) chicken and grapes or carrots work just fine. My grocery store also has a variety of premade, precooked meat loafs, chicken breasts, sushi, and pork chops that can just be microwaved.

i believe taco bell used grade "D" meat for their tacos. it is allowed to be used as human food, but is most usually found in dog food.

and you won't find grade D in any supermarket around here,

Anyone really interested in "nurishment" could just go to the website of each chain and check out the posted nutrition info.

The apple/cranberry/grilled chicken salad is pretty good for adults, too.

I think you'd have to check what you eat:

Seriously. Don't feed your kids this. My lazy dinner is scrambled eggs, cut up fruit, and carrot sticks. It literally takes 5 minutes and there is one skillet, a cutting board, and a knife as dishes. Faster than a drive through.

This - or PBJ with apple/glass of milk.
Or- breakfast for dinner (pancakes or even cereal with glass of OJ)
