HLHS 211: Module 2 Fast Food Analysis Assignment
Name: Christopher Herrera
Based on your favorite fast food restaurant, recall your usual food and beverage.
Access the fast food establishment’s online nutrition facts and
analyze your meal for total calories, fat, saturated fat, cholesterol, sodium, total carbohydrates, fiber, and protein.
(Use the provided Fast Food
Analysis document to assist in analyzing your meal).
Make sure that you type in the name of the fast food restaurant as well as their web site
address.
Based on the %DV’s (Appendix B), how would you rate your selections?
Based on the %DV's I would rate my selection as decent as there are many other food choices that could be better.
What ways could you alter your fast food choices to improve energy and nutrient intakes?
I could alter my food selection by instead of
buying a quarter pounder everytime. I could start going with a grilled chicken sandwich with an apple
instead of fries.
What food selections would help to make this meal healthier?
As mentioned earlier I would instead switch the meal out by getting a chicken sandwich instead of a burger, buying water bottle instead of soda and also
getting an apple over fries.
Using the information you gained from this analysis, describe a healthy meal plan from your favorite fast food restaurant.
A healthy Meal Plan would probably be a Grilled fully loaded chicken sandwich, with water and an apple with a chicken grilled saladas another side.
