Healthy fast food: “Fast casual” restaurants
Just because someone serves you your food at a table, doesn’t necessarily make it healthier. But many casual restaurants are offering “light selections” on their menus.
Some healthy choices that can be found at casual-fare chains:
Casual-fare Restaurant Choices

- Turkey, roast beef, or grilled chicken sandwich
