Eggs were taken off of many people's diet food lists because they contain a lot of cholesterol. That's unfortunate, because eggs also contain lots of important nutrients.

Fast foods are cheap and ready to eat almost as soon as you finish placing your order. Unfortunately, fast foods are also high in fat, calories, sugar and sodium, but low in all of the good nutrients your body really needs.

Of course, you can also use those websites to hunt for healthier selections at fast food restaurants. I used some of that information to create an interesting and informative quiz for you, Which Fast Food Item is Worse?
