Well, not Dunkin Donuts and KFC, but for the most part the rest of them offer appropriate and nourishing foods. You just have to order them. Subway does an especially good job. MacDonalds has complete nutritional information available not only on their web site but available on request at almost all of their stores. I admit that Gourmet Magazine isn't one I subscribe to - but Cooking Light IS and I recommend it highly - their recipes are very good. They even have a feature that takes a traditional recipe and makes a healthier version of it. A good magazine. But the real killers are in the supermarket aisles. They make the fast food outlets look like pikers.
