Isn't there anywhere close you can get sushi, pho, thai, a salad.

I will get a salad and a wrap at McD or if I go to KFC - chicken but none of their sides - I will have a small salad with it at home.

I like taco bell bean burritos.

Chicken tacos fresca style at taco bell are tasty and pretty healthy.

Definitely the taco bell bean burritos and the fresca bean burritos.

Love the chicken strips and mashed potatos at KFC, but I would never delude myself into thinking they were healthy.

Burger King is awful.

I don't know about those places but TJs sells great freshpack ravioli that I keep as an emergency stash in the freezer for those quick and easy dinner days. Probably not much healthier than fast food but at least I know what's in it.

I don't care for TB but they have a 'fresco' menu that advertises under 9g fat and 350 calories

http://www.tacobell.com/food/menu/fresco

and bk has salads and a grilled chicken sandwich and chicken wrap and as someone else said, get a whopper jr with no mayo for about 350 calories

Nothing great, but if you're careful about your choices the occasional fast food won't kill you.

But take a careful look at the nutrition info. For example, at BK: http://www.bk.com/cms/en/us/cms_out/digital_assets/files/pages/MenuNutritionInformation_April2013_1.pdf

Asking for a whopper without mayo cuts 160 calories and 18g of fat. Better still, the grilled chicken w/o mayo, veggie burger w/o mayo or fish sandwich w/o tartar sauce aren't terrible. All 400 calories or less and less than 10g of fat. They still have tons of sodium though so it's not an every day thing.

Skip a drink and keep some fruit or a bag of pre-washed salad at home and you won't have to get fries or soda (just empty calories and fat).

And the sweet potato fries at BK aren't bad taste wise.

I personally stay away from Taco Bell and KFC because I don't eat meat but I did try the veggie burger at bk a few days ago and it was pretty good, its a morningstar farms patty with veggies on a bun, pretty similiar to something i would make at home. I think it's fine to indulge in fast food occasionally, get what you like, enjoy it.

I know, I KNOW. Believe me. I really hate fast food with the exception of maybe chick fil a occasionally. But, I have an infant, my DH travels for work, I also work, and I have these three options right next to my house, all with drive throughs. Is there anything at all that is passable to eat? I would really appreciate any recommendations. Last week I was starving and just did not have the energy to make something or go out to get it, and I really wished I could have just grabbed something..
