Make a few bites of fast food count

A fast food meal is sized for a bigger appetite than yours, so plan for the part you won't eat before you start.

  • Protein first

    Start with the chicken, beef, eggs or beans, and leave the bun, the tortilla and the fries for last, if there's room.

  • Sauce on the side

    Add as much as you want, a little at a time, rather than eating what was poured on.

  • A box for later

    Ask for a to-go box when you order, and set half aside before the first bite. Pick something that reheats well, and it's tomorrow's lunch.

  • Skip the combo

    A sandwich or a bowl on its own is often plenty. The fries and the drink are the part most likely to go to waste.
