20 Healthiest Fast Food menu items

BATH, ENGLAND - FEBRUARY 19: A branch of Subway is pictured on February 19, 2018 in Bath, England. The number of takeaway restaurants has increased significantly in the last few years and this has raised concerns that this can lead to over-consumption in cheap, unhealthy high-fat nutrient-poor food and drink leading to higher body weight and greater risk of obesity.

McDonald's, Fast Food

20. Egg McMuffin

Fast food joint: McDonald’s
Menu item: The Egg McMuffin
Calories: 300

We’re kicking things off with an easy one. Everyone knows that McDonald’s Egg McMuffin is the one to go for when we want to start off the day with a low-calorie breakfast. So while it may not be the most popular choice (because it’s tough to resist McDonald’s calorie-packed breakfast!) it certainly one of the healthiest on the entire breakfast menu.

Make note, however, not to get the meal that includes a hash brown. Accompanying the Egg McMuffin with an oily hash brown will cancel out all the good the McMuffin did. Instead, have it alongside fruit or low-fat yogurt, this is only 300 calories after all so you can pick almost any side! And orange juice, of course.
