Most Unhealthful Fast Food Value Items

The Cancer Project, a non-profit group dedicated to cancer prevention and survival through nutrition education and research recently listed the top five 'most unhealthful' fast food value items.
- Jack in the Box
Junior Bacon Cheeseburger
(400 calories: 23g fat; 860mg sodium)
- Taco Bell
Cheesy Double Beef Burrito
(450 calories; 20g fat; 1,620mg sodium)
-Burger King
Breakfast Sausage Biscuit
(420 calories; 27g fat; 1,090mg sodium)
- McDonalds
Mcdouble
(390 calories; 19g fat; 920mg sodium)
- Wendy's
Junior Bacon Cheeseburger

There are slightly healthier alternatives, such as the BK Veggie or a Taco Bell bean burrito, both of which are inexpensive, low-fat and low-cholesterol.
