There is a great concept out there, that has finally made it's way to our little city: fast food with us in mind. At au naturale, health is not just an afterthought, it is THE thought. Seriously, no trans fat, no pre-processed meats, fries that are not fried, plus sweet potato fries...I hate to say it, but it feels prudent: Yummo! Their menu is packed with a variety of foods so healthy that you won't be cursing at yourself as you leave the drive-thru. If you're feeling like a light salad or sushi, but your hubby wants a burger, and your kids want pizza, well this is the place.
However, do keep this in mind: nutritious doesn't always mean low-calorie. For example, a McDonald's Big Mac and medium fries has 920 calories, 48 grams total fat & 12.5 saturated fat. Au naturale's Turkey burger with cheese and sweet potato fries has 660 calories, 31 grams total fat, and 8.5 grams saturated fat. Most of the difference in calories between the two meals comes from the fries, but both meals are high calorie....yet if ya gotta have a burger, might as well be on a nice whole wheat bun, with fresh lettuce and tomatoes, right? Go au naturale all the way at 880 East 2100 South, SLC, UT.
