[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not true.  They are all "processed," as they are massive corporate entities that have to provide identical food to thousands of outlets around the world.

But "processed" is not a bad word in the food world.[b] Just about everything you eat is "processed" in some way.[/b]

For healthier options, go on their web sites and look at the menus. Look for less calorie options and less saturated fat. Grilled chicken sandwiches or salads are usually the best bet.[/quote]

This.

I mean, yogurt? processed. Bread? Processed. Milk? Unless you're drinking it directly from the cow, it's processed. Like wine and beer? PROCESSED.

I hate it when people complain about "processed" food. Nearly everything you buy in the store is processed. By definition.

To answer your question, OP, at least places like BK and McDonald's have relatively smaller portions. But, no, burgers, chicken, even their salads are not healthy (most of the salads have more fat and calories after you put on dressing, for example).

Subway isn't bad. You can make good choices at Chipotle, but your average burrito there has more fat and calories than a Big Mac. Places like Panera and Cosi are OK -- IF you get the right foods. Which means smaller portions, skip the fries, and avoid fried things.

But don't fret about "processed."[/quote]
