For many busy Americans, eating out isn’t a “treat”, it’s a way of life. How many time have you eaten out this week??? Have all your fast food OR restaurant choices been good ones?? Chances are; not all your eating has been one hundred percent healthy. SO what does eating out do to your figure? Look at the real statistics below and be shocked!
“Temple University researchers interviewed 12,666 people about their dietary habits.
Here’s what they found about the weighty cost of a drive-thru feeding:
Those who ate 1 fast food meal per week:
Weighed 1.4 more pounds compared with abstainers
Ate 2 fast food meals per week:
Weighed 2.8 more pounds compared with abstainers
Ate 3 fast food meals per week:
Weighed 4 more pounds compared with abstainers
41%
Would like to see nutritional information printed on fast food menus.
50%
Would likely order healthy items if part of a value/combo meal.
Ok, now that you have read the stats… where do you fall on the chart? These statistics are great, however, I don’t know many people that ONLY eat out 1-3 times a week! Most people here in California are eating 1 -3 meals out daily!
