IPL'S FOOD ON THE GO~!! (BREAKFAST/SUBWAY VS SONIC)

[IronpumpedLady]

Which drive-thru breakfast is lower in calories?

Sometimes it's all you can do to throw on some clothes, brush your teeth and get out the door in the morning. On days that you don't have time to cook or pull together a healthy breakfast, the fast food chains are there for you--opening early so you can pull through and order a quick, hot meal. But, with the poor reputation of fast food these days, some chains are doing their best to offer at least some healthy alternatives, even when it comes to breakfast. Here are two similar ones. Sonic's Bacon Egg & Cheese Toaster is served between two thick slices of Texas toast. Select Subway locations serve breakfast as well. Their Double Bacon & Cheese Sandwich offers double the bacon and is served on a deli style round. Which bacon & cheese sandwich will fill you with fewer calories?


The winning choice is Subway Double Bacon & Cheese Sandwich~!

Subway does it again! Their Double Bacon & Cheese Sandwich contains 460 calories, making it a decent sized breakfast. However, it's also high in fat (23 grams), saturated fat (12 grams), heart-unhealthy trans fats (0.5 grams), and sodium (1,320 grams--more than half your daily recommended intake). When it comes to calories, Sonic's Toaster is only slightly higher, at 500. Similarly, it's also high in fat (29 grams), saturated fat (11 grams), and sodium (1,698 grams). Remember, while calories count for weight loss, other factors, like fat and sodium content matter for your health. Subway's Cheese Breakfast Sandwich is the best option, weighing in at 270 calories and a mere 9 grams of fat (and zero trans fats).


Stay Strong~~!!!
