Eat Healthy When you are Away From Home
It’s important to make smart food choices wherever you are – at work, in your favorite restaurant, or running errands. Try these tips:

  • At lunch, have a sandwich on whole-grain bread.
  • Choose fat-free or low-fat milk, water, or diet drinks.
  • In a restaurant, choose steamed, broiled, or grilled dishes instead of fried foods.
  • On a long drive or shopping trip, pack some fresh fruit, unsalted nuts, or low-fat string cheese sticks to snack on.
