1. Describe the healthy meal that you have created from the fast-food restaurant using the nutritional value of menu items.
A. I chose the fast food restaurant McDonald’s. I have ordered a vegetarian premium wrap, a side salad, and a medium orange juice.
Premium Bacon
Ranch Salad
(Without chicken)- 140 Calories, 7g of total fat, 300mg of sodium, 10g of Carbohydrates, 9g of protein, and 160 vitamins A.
Side Salad- 20 Calories, Sodium 10mg, Carbohydrates 4g, protein 1g, and 45 vitamin A
Orange Juice- 190 Calories, 44g of Carbohydrates, 39g of Sugar, 3g of protein, and 160 Vitamin A0
B. I thought that this food choice was absolutely impressive to me because many people say that McDonalds is very unhealthy for an individual. I am blown away because this meal was very low on calories and provided very high vitamin A and a very good source of protein. In this meal combination the only thing to have any sugar was orange juice and it made up for the sugars by having an outstanding amount of vitamin A. There was very very little fat associated with this meal which made this meal highly healthy and a given choice to any one individual who wants to eat healthy. Allthough there was a good amount of calcium as well with this meal. Could use more, but it is not at an alarming low level. …show more content…
Lately I have not been eating McDonalds very often, maybe once or twice a week. I have recently started to eat healthy and exercising lately, so I am definitely going to order this meal for sure I need my protein. Due to this I will that the next time I order I will add chicken to this meal because chicken is very high in protein. All together this meal would have well over 30g of protein and with chicken it would be about 50g of protein. Definitely will order this in the
