A word to the wise, 90% of fast food, whether its marketed "healthy" or not is mostly hydroginated oils. Buy a mccrap mcflurry and leave it out in the sun, it will hold its consistency because of the 70% hydroginated chicken oil/fat. Fun stuff.

Yeah I think 1g is a safe rule of thumb, 2g would be difficult. And yes, most fast food is a brew of shit. It's fine in small amounts, the human body is amazingly capable of handling bad things, but if you eat it regularly, you're in trouble, I'm probably around a couple times a month perhaps when it's the difference between eating something and going real hungry when on the road. And some is better than others. The chicken Fajita from Jack in the Box, for example, is better than what Mickey D's apparently thinks is a hamburger.
