Okay so look, I’m diabetic so I don’t eat burgers very often anyway but when I do, I usually roll without the bun due to the carbs. Believe it or not, apparently there are actually healthy burger options!
Nutritionist Kelly Jones says that Johnny Rocket’s Streamliner Boca burger is the healthiest among plant-based options.
“This burger is free of cholesterol as well as lower in fat than other faux meats, like Beyond or Impossible,” said Jones.
And for the meaty variety? “The Junior Burger at Wendy’s can curb your burger craving without a ton of saturated fat and calories from unnecessary toppings,” said dietitian Trista Best.
So what I’m hearing is either go with a healthy option or eat a small burger! UGH. It’s better than nothing I guess!
