Salads and fries

 

    To deal with widespread criticism (and the possibility of legal judgments) that their food is making people obese, fast-food chains are testing new health-conscious products in America. This fall [5] McDonald’s, which has already introduced fruit packs and salads in many of its international branches, is testing a new adult version of its Happy Meal. The Go Active meal includes salad, bottled  ater, a nutrition booklet and a clip-on pedometer to encourage walking. [10] Trying to be more extreme, Burger King last month showed for the first time a line of Light Combo Meals that come with a grilled chicken baguette, salad and bottled water. The new food options are helpful, but some salads, like McDonald’s Crispy Chicken Bacon [15] Ranch Salad, can contain more fat than a Quarter Pounder Hamburger. So, before you get in line, go online to check calorie counts. Fast food doesn’t have to mean fat food anymore.
