Drive-Thru Diet, my ass! Literally!
I'm not following said "Drive-Thur Diet" but on occasion - say, two or maybe three times a week, I pick up a bean and cheese burrito because it's vegetarian and super fast and well...really good, too. [My husband totally disagrees and we have an ongoing debate in our house on whether Taco Bell or Del Taco is better].
I'm having a hard time though finding accurate nutritional information on these bean and cheese burritos. Their menu doesn't even list a "bean and cheese burrito" - I just ordered it one day thinking it was a given that Taco Bell would sell this item. I searched online, including Taco Bell's website, and found varying information from 8 grams of fat to 11 grams of fat. Well, which is it?
The "Eat This, Not That" website suggested that the bean burrito was a good choice from their menu but that it contains a lot of sodium. So that's where all this bloat is coming from!
I could easily make a bean burrito at home. Not to mention, a quesadilla for Audrey, too. Sadly, I think I'm just LAZY and the drive thru is so easy. But, I know that is a TERRIBLE excuse! I really, really don't want Audrey to become a fast-food kid!
I know what I have to do: 1) re-watch "Super Size Me," "Fast Food Nation," and "Food, Inc." 2) Get my shit together and plan healthy lunches for both my daughter and I to enjoy. And 3) Stop bitching about my ass and start the "Shred!"
