Fowl and Offensive

I haven't beat up on my fast food buddies in a while so here we go.

At McDonalds they have more than Mc Nuggets in the chicken arena now. They have the McBites which weigh in at 310 calories with 19 grams of fat and 490 mgs of sodium. It's quite a trick to get half of the fat in a dish from fat, but they made it. You can also go for the Chicken Selects Breast Strips and get 380 calories with 23 grams of fat and a whopping 750 mgs of sodium. That is chicken you should be chicken to eat if you know what I mean.

So what are their competitors up to? At Wendy's you can get the Grilled Chicken Go Wrap - that sounds healthy huh? It is only 260 calories with 10 grams of fat, but it packs 730 mgs of sodium. I'm still chicken.

At Burger King they have the 4 Piece Chicken Tenders whish are just 280 calories, but have 17 grams of fat and 490 mgs of sodium. I'm chicken of that too.

Lets go to the chicken source - KFC. Finally, a grilled chicken breast is just 220 calories with just 7 grams of fat - whew! Ooops, it also has 730 mgs of sodium. Dang! We were almost eating for a second. Still chicken.

At Popeyes they have a Naked Chicken Wrap. It is just 200 calories with 6 grams of fat, but it also has 580 mgs of sodium. So far better than the others, but I'm still chicken. Oh and their Chicken Po' Boy has 660 calories with 34 grams of fat and 2120 mgs of sodium! That is NOT nourishment - it IS punishment. Just because of that we can't go there.

I say lets skip all this chicken stuff and get some of those Doritos Locos tacos from Taco Bell. They are just 200 calories, but half of the calories come from the 11 grams of fat and each one has 370 mgs of sodium. You know you have to eat 2 anyway and then the soda and some Mexi Fries and -BOOM- there goes your next 2 days worth of fat and sodium and all of today's calories anyway.

Maybe we should eat in after all.

More soon.....
