What Nutritionists Order at Fast Food Restaurants

It's easier than ever to find healthier options in a pinch

Chick-fil-A Deluxe Sandwich
Chick-fil-A Deluxe Sandwich Fried, yes, but according to Monica Auslander, registered dietitian nutritionist and founder of Essence Nutrition, Chick-fil-A isn't the worst choice of fast food restaurants. "At least their buns have some iota of wheat flour (though they're not 100 percent whole wheat), their chicken is antibiotic-free, you can order 'extra' lettuce and tomato on your sandwich and they even have grilled nuggets (not fried)!" she says. "They now even offer a 'superfood' side (kale-based) and a few salad entrees as well (though I would avoid the dressing)." Even the waffle fries aren't so bad in Auslander's opinion since they're not nearly as processed as other fast food locales. She often orders a small, has a few and tosses them away.
