Carl's
Jr.
Carl's Jr. and Hardee's are very similar and owned by the same company, but
seem to be mostly located in different parts of the country. At Carl's
you'll find menu items like their banana chocolate chip shake and their
grilled cheese bacon burgers. If you're counting calories or just want to
make the healthiest choice possible, check out their
nutritional menu. Carl's Jr. was started in 1941 by Carl Karcher. |

Chick-fil-A
The
Chick-fil-A cows carry the slogan "Eat More Chicken", which is a cute
marketing ploy by this company. They offer waffle fries, chicken strips and
chicken nuggets. You'll also find ice cream, salads, sandwiches and other
sides. Chick-fil-A is known for their unique dipping sauces, such as their
Polynesian sauce and their fat free honey mustard dressing. You can get
complete
nutrition information on their menu items at their website. You can use

Kentucky Fried Chicken
If you have a craving for chicken but don't like to stand over a hot stove
frying chicken in oil, then this restaurant is for you. In addition to fried
chicken, KFC has added some healthier options to their
menu,
such as grilled chicken. Add sides such as green beans to complete the
healthy lineup. Some restaurants have buffets that have a nice selection of
different KFC items and perhaps even a salad bar. This can be an affordable
option for a family dinner that still allows for some variety in tastes. |

McDonald's
If you're looking for a fast food joint that offers a wide variety of
options at an affordable price, your kids will love McDonald's. Another
benefit of this restaurant is that you can find one in nearly every town in
America and even find McDonald's around the world. They offer a dollar menu
that allows families to eat inexpensively. McDonald's is also known for
their
kids meals and cartoon characters such as Ronald McDonald. Because this
fast food place caters to kids, some have play areas inside with tunnels to
keep kids amused while parents visit and talk. |
