Is there a possibility of finding a more "local" place rather than good ol' fast food? While my DH is more than happy to load up on a supersize meal at any one of our 6 FF drive thrus, he is also very content to go to our local diner which has options for both of us. We went to Moes awhile back-he got his traditional and I had black beans and salsa for which they charged me under $2.
How about a deli in the local grocery? Ours has a salad bar, full hot deli and a place to sit down.
The reality for me, is that because I know that most of the franchises are preparing food designed to be tasty and tempting rather than healthy, we just don't go anymore. As I get better at making freezer soups, etc, it's actually sometimes faster (and cheaper) to eat at home.
