The ongoing campaign to make fast-food healthy continues with ‘satisfries’ by Burger King and is simply not enough to combat the continuing problems of obesity and unhealthy fast-food.

As obesity has become a growing concern for people in the United States, the need to nitpick and point the finger at others has been a common occurrence.

The food served at places such as Burger King, Taco Bell or Five Guys is filled with an excess of sodium, trans fat and saturated fat.

However, efforts have been made to counteract this ongoing problem.

It began with the introduction of caloric information on the fast-food menus. Then, it continued with the inclusion of fruits and vegetables on the dinner menus.

The problem is that the one guy at your local KFC isn’t going to all of a sudden put down his fried chicken in favor of a salad.

It is time to include these healthy choices with items that are already prominent on the fast-food menus to begin with.

For instance, take a Double-Double burger from In-N-Out.

It is apparent that customers are going to continually purchase the burger for its rich taste, but what if the white bread buns were traded in favor of wheat?

Lowering the sodium intake for these “junk foods” would be beneficial as they are typically endowed with salt.

Prepping up other foods in different types of substances, such as olive oil, works wonders regarding a person’s heath, too.

Fast-food restaurant chains have made an effort to be healthier, but it all boils down to the customers and what they decide to put in their mouths.

A simple change in preparation can be the difference between life or death, literally.
