It's a health list. They have the Whopper as 11th worst and recommend a Burger King cheeseburger instead.

Who gets any of these burgers worrying about health?

Although this is pretty amazing:

Isnt 5000mg of sodium your daily intake for 2 or 3 days total? Getting that at one meal is crazy.

Off that list, I only have 3 options, Burger King, 5 guys and Mcdonalds. The rest are not available here. Thank god!

I went to 5 guys last night, was disappointed. Now the food is good and portions are huge. Too damn expensive to be a burger joint for me.

Get a little, that's what I do. And the fries are meant to be shared - so really two littles loaded with toppings and one regular bag of fries (cajun are better) cost you not much more than McDonald's or Burger King. It is a little on the pricier side, but I think they're way more delicious too.

Granted we didn't get the little burgers. Two regular bacon burgers and shared a large fry. Not including drinks, right around $20.

Yeah share a medium fry next time. If you do it right they fill the bag with fries almost up to the top with just a medium. Large is way too large.

And the little burgers are still huge. I go all the way minus mayo plus jalapenos and I can still barely fit a little burger in my mouth haha.

I just find it funny how "fast food" gets such a bad rap yet the "sit down" places such as Chili's and Applebee's are even worse (Although larger portion sizes probably play a part too) and that's where more people are going for a non-fast-food lunch.
