Grilled chicken nuggets have no breading. It's just grilled chicken. The pickles, kale salad, and drink have essentially zero calories.

The only unhealthy thing on that list is the honey BBQ sauce which, per Chick-fil-a's website, is 60 calories and 2 grams of sugar per pack:

Assuming he's only eating a few packs of sauce, that sounds like a healthy meal. What's wrong with it?

That is WAY better than my typical Chick-Fil-A order. What's further down from "trapped toddler" on the condescension scale? That's where I'll be.

There's no call to insult something like that. If they choose to eat at Chick-fil-a because they don't have time (or don't know how to cook) that's fine. They should be commended on their food choices there. Chick-fil-a has so many fatty, fried food options and they choose something grilled, with vegetables.

Besides, what toddler do you know of will choose to eat a kale salad?

The only questionable choices I see are

1. Chicken nuggets. Processed mystery meat.

2. BBQ sauce. Basically seasoned high fructose corn syrup.

3. Coke Zero. Artificial sweeteners can cause/aggravate insulin resistance.

Still a level down from fried chicken and chips, every step in the right direction counts.

Grilled nuggets there are not "processed mystery meat."

> Artificial sweeteners can cause/aggravate insulin resistance

In regards to Aspartame this isn't true. Or, at least, the Jury is still out. There's competing evidence from studies.
