Difference: 850 calories
====If you were to choose the healthy choice, rather the poor choice, you would be saving 850 calories. This would help you in the long run because you would stay healthier at a fast food place, rather staying unhealthy and oily foods and staying fat.====

Difference: 32 fat grams
====If you were to choose the healthy choice, rather the poor choice, you would save 32 fat grams. This would help you because in the future you would remember to always go to the healthy choice rather the unhealthy choice because it helps you better and stops you from becoming fat.====

Difference: 1420 milligrams of sodium
====If you were to choose the healthy choice, rather the poor choice, you would save 1420 milligrams of sodium. This would help you because you would come back to eating the healthy choice if you were to eat here again instead of the unhealthy choice. The healthier choice keeps your sodium levels down and thats good because you dont want too much sodium in your body, because that is really unhealthy.====

Difference: 108 grams of sugar
====If you were to choose the healthy choice instead of the poor choice, you would save 108 grams of sugar. Thats better than the unhealthy choice because the healthy choice only has 12 grams of sugar, meanwhile the unhealthy choice has 120 grams of sugar. Sugar breaks down into fat. So either way you're consuming fat at a fast food resturant. But the healthier choice is better than the unhealthy choice.====

5. What conclusions can you make regarding fast food after analyzing the data?
=== I can conclude that pretty much all fast food is bad for you. Whether it’s a “healthy choice” or a “poor choice”, it’s all bad for you. It is all made up of oils and fats and sugars. It is unhealthy to the human body and will cause obesity if someone eats it more than once every 2 weeks or so. There is no good or bad choice because even the healthier options still have high numbers for calories, fat grams, sodium, and sugar. ===
