Eat This, Not That: Junk food

When your only option for a closing-time refuel is displayed on a back-lit menu, use this guide to make your instant hit healthier.

Eat This: Chicken Tikka 6 Inch Sub
311kcal
Tikka spices are weight loss champions, adding flavour and raising your metabolic rate without the fatty sauces. Don’t go undoing its good work with unnecessary additions, such as cheese or mayonnaise.
Not That: Chicken & Bacon Ranch Melt 6 Inch Sub, Ranch Dressing
560kcal
Yes, it looks 'fresh' and contains salad, but the cuts of bacon at fast food restaurants are fattier than the stuff you cook at home. Add to it some cheese and dressing and you are quickly making this unhealthier than your average burger.

Save 695kcal at KFC

Eat This: BBQ Rancher Burger, BBQ Beans, Black Coffee
490kcal
When a bleary-eyed stumble from the pub finds you at the mercy of The Colonel, the Rancher Burger skips the batter and the fryer. Add low-fat beans and wash it down with coffee.
Not That: Toasted Twister, Large Fries, Large Pepsi
1,185kcal
If you’re not careful Colonel Sanders will hit you with a truly belt-busting meal deal. The Twister actually contains more fat than the burger, and Pepsi is just a bucketful of sugar.
