Healthy on the Highway: Gas stations, drive-thrus, and damage control

Nadia Wren

Road trips have a way of narrowing your choices down to whatever is under the fluorescent lights at the counter. This is how to work with that reality instead of fighting it: the gas station items that beat the ones beside them, how to order at a drive-thru without leaving half your day's energy in the bag, what to keep in the car so hunger never makes the decision for you, and how to let one rough meal stay just that. Practical, unhurried, no guilt included.
