People think just because they order a wrap instead of the sandwich or a salad instead of fries that it's good for us. That by substituting the "fatty" foods with something else makes eating out safe. Well, you should heed my advice, eat out at your own risk.
Now, I know that sometimes you want someone else to take care of the cooking and washing dishes for you. I know that you're tired when you get home from work and cooking is sometimes the last thing you want to do. Here's the thing, you are what you eat and you should be more aware of what you eat.
Your body needs fuel to run efficiently. If you are feeding your body junk, you will feel terrible...no energy, headaches, unable to satisfy your hunger. It's amazing how much better you'll feel if you just eat right. By eating right, I mean eating foods in which you know their origin. Do your research, you'll see just how much junk you are putting into your system.
If you don't believe me, just take a look the nutritional data for your favorite chain. Most restaurants have the nutrition guide posted either on their website and/or somewhere in the establishment. It's quite shocking to see how many calories and grams of fat, etc. are in some of your favorite things.
Salads and fruits aren't even a safe option. Most salads and fruits aren't made in the establishment you are visiting. They are prepared and shipped from somewhere else. So, that means they must have lots of preservatives to keep them fresh.
Also, you don't know where the fruits, veggies, meats, etc. are created. Which means you don't know how this food was handled and/or raised/made. There could be pesticides, preservatives, hormones, antibiotics, and other things that aren't good for your body in these foods.
So, I challenge you to cook at home more, find local farmers, know where your food originates. Most of all, keep yourself and your family safe by eating healthy and knowing your food.
