This Is The #1 Unhealthiest Fast-Food Item In America

The folks at “Eat This, Not That!” have teamed up with dietitian Amy Goodson to unveil the absolute #1 unhealthiest item in America.

Goodson says that the breading on the chicken and mayonnaise-based sauce crank up the fat and sodium levels…add a fried side item you have even more of a calorie and sodium nightmare. For the record, the recommended daily amount is 23-hundred milligrams.

To compare Popeyes’ Spicy Chicken sandwich racks up 700-cals, 42-grams of fat and 1,474-mg of sodium and Wendy’s Classic Big Bacon Cheddar has 810-calories, 45-grams of fat and 2,250mg of sodium.

As Goodson puts it: “A good rule of thumb is that if you are eating half your daily calories and more than half of the daily fat and sodium intake in one item, it is likely not the best choice.”

I love the unhealthiest item on the menus hahaha.
