Do kid-sized portions really offer fewer calories?
Many times, ordering from a kids menu can ensure that you're eating a normal adult size portion, which usually means fewer calories. Which of these menu options, each geared towards kids, is lower in calories?
The Low-Cal Winner
Bob Evans Mini Cheeseburgers with smiley potatoes
As a whole, this meal contains 594 calories. While that's a lot for a kid, it is one of the lowest calorie options on the menu. Unfortunately, it's also high in fat--54 grams, 5 of which are saturated. The Don Pablo's option is not healthy for a kid or an adult. This meal contains 1,248 calories and 78 grams of fat (and an artery-clogging 34 grams of saturated fat)! Remember--smaller portions don't always mean fewer calories. Look for key menu words and pick the leanest food, which usually means nothing deep fried, including tater tots.
