[quote=Anonymous]DC is 3. No TV, no DVDs, the occasional kiddie song on YouTube. McDonalds or similar (Taco Bell, Wendy's etc.) about once a month. Chipotle or similar (Moe's, Baja Fresh etc.) once or twice a month. BTW, I may be wrong about this, but I feel like we make better choices for DC at Chipotle/Moes/Baja Fresh than at McD's etc. The mexican places usually mean rice, beans, cheese, tomato salsa and some meat for DC. It's definitely high in sodium, but there's also a little extra protein/fiber in the beans and tomatos. Plus, no fries!! (DC doesn't really like more than a few bites of chips.) For adults, I can see the argument that Chipotle is just as bad as McD's when it comes to total calorie count and sodium intake, basically because of the huge portions. But if you go more minimal (two tacos instead of a big burrito), and skip the cheese, sour cream and chips (and add beans for fiber), you likely come out ahead compared to a Big Mac and fries.
