FAST-FOODFast food always gets a bad wrap for its poor nutrition value and low-quality ingredients. However, there was reprieve for some as the results of a new Zagat’s survey were revealed. The popular restaurant review service surveyed 6,100 fast food diners to find out their favorites in a number of categories.

The survey revealed best burgers, best milkshakes, best fries, best fried chicken, best value and best service amongst many others. We were really only interested in where the favorite healthy choices could be found.

For the Healthiest Options category, these four restaurants ranked supreme:

For the Best Grilled Chicken, you’ll need to visit:

  • Chick-Fil-A
  • Panera Bread
  • Wendy’s
  • Chipotle
  • El Pollo Loco

To find the Best Salads, try:

  • Panera Bread
  • Wendy’s
  • McDonald’s
  • Au Bon Pain
  • Corner Bakery

Finally, cool down with one of the Best Smoothies or Frozen Yogurts from:

  • Smoothie King
  • Jamba Juice
  • Pinkberry
  • TCBY
  • Orange Julius

See more results of the Zagat survey at the Today Show.

    I’m not sure there is ever a “healthy” fast food restaurant. But I do like subway, so I can pick my ingredients.
