Are there any Web sites that show the nutritional value of different fast foods?
In addition to going to the official Web site for individual restaurant chains, another Web site that may be helpful is www.foodfacts.com. Not only does it provide nutritional information for a number of menu items from fast-food restaurants, it also provides a comparison of food items from various restaurants from the least calories to the most. It also ranks many fast foods from the most to least calories, calories from fat, total fat, saturated fat, cholesterol, sodium, carbohydrates, fiber, sugars or protein. — Susan Krumm is an Extension agent in family and consumer sciences with K-State Research and Extension-Douglas County, 2110 Harper St. She can be reached at 843-7058.
