In A penny-ante cure for our fast food addiction, author Robert Wieder offers a great way to think of fast food if you're concerned AT ALL about the calorie count of your favorite fast-food items: think of them in economic terms. He suggests a federal law requiring restaurant menu items to be priced at a minimum of one cent per calorie. The examples he gives are incredible; the Meat Lover's pizza at $3.40 per slice, the Whopper with cheese at $7.60, and more!
Go read it. You will never think of fast food the same way again.
