How to Order in a Fast food Joint – 4
I’m positive that everyone of us, when eating in food chain look for main course and that’s a meat. Almost everybody loves meat. But it shouldn’t be. Always have a balance diet.
Choose safe meat. White meat is a better choice than red meat, but it’s not a totally perfect choice. Most chickens and turkeys now are injected with antibiotics to counteract bacteria and salmonella, and subjected to growth hormones to increase their size and value. The residue of these chemicals resides in animal fats that, once ingested by the body, could be fatal. A lot of different restaurants now serve organic or free-range chicken which contain lower levels of animal fat. But then again, without an assurance that the chicken served us is organic, you’re better off choosing roasted chicken if you must have fowl. Choose breast over thigh – and skin is always a no-no. If you must have steak, get the leanest cut of fillet mignon and tenderloin, grilled with no char. Fish is also a smart choice because they are a good source of omega 3 fatty acids, although some studies show that most ocean mercury content which is harmful to pregnant women and children’s brains. Good fish choices are tilapia, milkfish (bangus), halibut, and striped sea bass.
