Which Restaurants are Considered Fast-Food?

Question

Ok. Just finished watching my Tivo Recorded, The Biggest Loser Finale, and it made me realize that i'm alone when i saw Antoine purpose to his gf Alexandra... I knew and was going to take action about my weight but i want to set my self a challenge for the upcoming yr. Go one yr. without eating Fast-Food... Sounds great but apart from the obvious chain restaurants (McDonalds, Wendy's, Burger King, White Castle) What else is considered Fast Food? Note* I'm 26yrs old with no job going to school and want to stay healthy, i figured subway sandwiches are cheap and low in calories*(depends on the sandwich of course), and if can have it when im in school and not spend too much money on it...

Answer 2

Pretty much anywhere that is not considered a sit down restaurant can be a fast food joint; some, like Subway, can be healthier than a burger and fries. Almost all food eateries now have charts with the nutritional values for each item. It would be the healthiest for you to purchase food at the grocery store and make your own meals; probably cheaper as well

Answer 3

You could play into Subway's marketing ploy and only eat their tasteless food prepared by a high school retard that thinks they are a sandwich artist, or you could learn to make your own damn sandwich and save some money while eating something truly healthy.



If you have trouble putting two pieces of bread together with some meat and lettuce inside I'm not sure why you are wasting money on college.

Answer 4

You want to lose weight?



Don't eat at ANY restaurants!



They VERY LARGELY use all those additives that are terrible for you.



Don't buy pre-packaged foods. They, too, almost completely, have all sorts of crap in them.



LEARN HOW TO COOK FOR YOURSELF! and avoid fats and sugars as much as possible!



Subway sandwiches are almost as bad as the others...tons of salt, sugars, chemicals, and preservatives...try really TASTING what you are eating...you can actually TASTE the chemicals in their sandwiches! Yes, they are considered fast/processed food.



ANY chain restaurant. Learn how to shop...stay on the outsides of the store...and frozen vegetables are good...most of them list ONLY vegetable as their ingredients. Go light on the deli foods...lots of nitrates. FRESH FOODS! WATCH what they put in the breads you buy. Bring sandwiches to campus. Or eat at the dining halls. They usually do pretty well, there...stick, again, to fresher foods. Salads and veggies are better.



Key point: If it's cheap enough for you to afford it, the restaurant is probably serving nasty food.

Answer 5

If you have no job (income), then you should do all your eating at home and using all you "money" to cut your weight or just on foods you can make at home. Fast food should not be ano option for you. You may want to also hear what Dave Ramsey or a financial expert says in addition to a trainer. And remember, jilliam is just that...a trainer, not a psychologist who can diagnose your issues.

Answer 6

Subway is Technically a fast food restaraunt. It can be healthy but the more food you put on a sandwich the more unhealthy it is. Pizza hut is bad for you but yummy. I recommend Pizza Hut if you don't have a weight problem.

Answer 7

If it has a drive through window where you order and pick up your food - it is fast food.



If it offers combo meals and you order by number - it is fast food.



If it has bright colors and kid's meals - it is fast food.



If it doesn't have regular menus, but instead has back-lit menu boards and illuminated pictures of the foods - it is fast food.



If all the flooring is either tile or linoleum - it is most likely fast food.



If the employees never leave the behind-the-counter area except to cleean, it is fast food.



If they only have disposable plates and cups - it is fast food.



If most of the food is to be eaten with the hands - it is fast food.



If they have monitors hanging from the ceiling in the kitchen that are timing how long it takes to get your order - it is fast food.



If every employee is wearing a bright colored polyester uniform - it is fast food.



If you have to unwrap your food - it is fast food.



If you meal was all tossed into a bag and given to you - it most certainly is fast food.
