Starbucks for breakfast.
A fair amount of sodium in their breakfast sandwiches but most have a ton of protein and a few are pretty low in calories and they taste pretty decent.

Jimmy Johns.

McDonalds for last resort

Panerai, Bob Evans, Ihop

Occasionally a Waffle House if we're in the south.

Kids lean toward breakfast foods, dad some kind of meat, and mom an omelet

Stopped at a Cracker Barrel once, will never return: I don't meet the weight requirement. At least at the one we stopped at in the mid-west, you cannot enter unless you weigh 300 pounds 🤣

Subway
Noodles & Company
Wawa for sandwiches

That's about it. We don't eat meat so don't do most fast food places.

Cracker Barrel can be a long wait but I like their rainbow trout and two vegetable sides as a dinner.

Walmart often has a prepared food department that's large enough to buy a ready to go, reasonably healthy picnic. Cold chicken, vegetable trays, individual milk jugs, salads that come with a fork packaged inside.

Panera half sandwich and cup of soup "You Pick 2" is a decent portion size.

In New York State and Ontario, I sometimes buy fruit cups and sandwiches from the convenience store at the turnpike/highway rest stops.

Tim Horton's usually has chicken noodle soup that can be paired with sandwiches.

At McDonalds, if I'm not too hungry, I order a hamburger Happy Meal to keep calories down.

There are some hysterically insufferable people on this thread.

Never change, DCUM!

+1. Grab a McChicken and keep moving down the road.

We try to avoid too many carbs in the car as activity is limited on those days. We do normally go for a family jog at lunch though before we eat. We park at a school/ neighborhood park and jog a couple miles then eat. It’s quite lovely. Our kids as young as 4 have done this.

4-year-old: Mommy, can we eat now?

Mom: Not until you’ve done your two-mile jog, honey?

4-year-old: But mom, yesterday was leg day.

Only the peasants do “driving trips” in your world?

One thing about Wendy's - I have been to a few that have no changing tables - not a fun surprise mid drive! I know people have lots of feelings about Chick fil a, but it is a great place to stop with kids. If I have time and there is one on the way I also love Cracker Barrel.

I usually like Wendy’s or Chick Fila.

Chick fil-A is my ride or die.

I'll eat whatever. If there's a Bojangles or a Biscuitville that's a priority, but anything is fine.

Middle eastern places everywhere are cheap and their rolls are pretty healthy.
