When is it okay to choose a burger over a salad?

When you’re going out for a meal at a fast-food restaurant, it’s often because you don’t have the time or don’t want to cook. If that’s the case and you’re eating out because of convenience rather than going out for an occasion, it’s often tempting to try and watch what you eat. To maybe order a salad instead of a hefty burger with chips. However, just because it’s got the name salad in the title, doesn’t mean it’ll be healthier than a burger.

    The story of the Taliban murdering 17 people for dancing shows why Afghanis are going to desperate measures to seek asylum in Australia. Why don't they go through the proper UN channels you ask? Because there are none. In Afganistan the location of the Australia consulate is secret for security reasons; it's not possible to apply for refuge there. What would you do if your life of families life was at risk? Australian can be pround we are a founding state of the 1951 refugee convention. Most countries in Asia have not signed it. It's not illeagal to seek asylum by sea. These people (men, women and children) need our help and we have a legal and moral responsibility to give it too them.

    Calories are a measurement of how much "energy" is in food, not "fat content". People often make this mistake (sometimes for the sake of a more catchy headline)
