    Episode 28 - Fast Food in Moderation Podcast
    Jan 11 2026
    This looks like someone's handwritten notes for a podcast episode about eating fast food in moderation! The writer seems to be documenting their weekly fast food experiences:

    **Episode 28: "It's Been a Good Time But We Are Not Giving Up We Keep Moving Forward"**

    The host tried three different fast food restaurants over three days:

    1. **Tuesday - Taco Bell**: They noticed something was "off" about how fast food places are tasting differently in 2026 compared to previous years.

    2. **Wednesday - Slim Chickens**: They had the spicy tenders and really enjoyed them, noting they were "pretty spicy but really good."

    3. **Thursday - Red Robin**: Despite the food looking "over looked" (possibly overcooked?), they thought it tasted really good.

    The episode title suggests a theme of perseverance - continuing their fast food moderation journey despite some ups and downs. It's interesting that they're noting changes in how fast food tastes in 2026, which could make for an engaging discussion about quality, recipes, or supply chain changes.

    Is this your podcast, or are you working on developing these notes into a script?

    Episode 27 - Fast Food in Moderation Podcast
    Dec 31 2025
    I can see this is a handwritten outline for Episode 27 of "The Fast Food in Moderation Podcast"! This looks like a fun and personal approach to discussing fast food habits. Here's what the episode covers:

    **Episode Topics:**

    The host plans to discuss how they eat fast food in moderation on weekends, part-time, once a week so they can get their show on the road. The numbered topics include:

    1. Why they eat fast food in moderation on weekends
    2. Why they use the 80/20 Rule
    3. How they lose weight eating fast food and sweet treats
    4. Why they don't track on Hoddy's (possibly a restaurant or special occasion?)
    5. Why they don't track on their birthday
    6. Their favorite burger places in 2025
    7. Their favorite pizza in 2025
    8. Their favorite ice cream
    9. Their favorite fast food palaces (places)
    10. Their favorite doughnut in 2025
    11. Their favorite fried chicken places in 2025

    The episode closes with a thank you to viewers and a teaser for Episode 28, wishing everyone a safe and happy New Year.

    This seems like a balanced approach to enjoying fast food while maintaining health goals. The 80/20 rule mentioned is a popular guideline where you eat nutritiously 80% of the time and allow yourself treats 20% of the time. Is this your podcast outline, or are you working on something related to it?

    # Fast Food in Moderation Podcast Episode 25 - Show Notes

    ## Episode Overview

    This episode explores practical strategies for incorporating higher-calorie fast food options into a balanced diet, along with highlighting the nutritional benefits of watermelon during summer months.

    ## Main Topics

    ### Calorie Banking Strategy

    The episode examines Wendy's Pretzel Bacon Pub Triple Burger, which contains 1,520 calories. While this represents a substantial caloric intake, the discussion introduces the concept of calorie banking as a viable approach for those who wish to enjoy such indulgent meals. This strategy involves slightly reducing daily caloric intake on certain days to create a surplus that can be allocated toward more indulgent meals or social events, particularly on weekends. This approach allows individuals to maintain their overall caloric goals while still enjoying higher-calorie food choices periodically.

    ### Nine Nutritious Watermelon Benefits in Summer

    The second segment presents a comprehensive overview of watermelon's health advantages during the summer season. Watermelon serves as an excellent source of hydration while simultaneously replenishing electrolytes lost through perspiration. The fruit promotes healthy digestion and supports weight management efforts due to its high water content and relatively low caloric density.

    Additional benefits include enhanced skin health and protection against sun damage, attributed to the fruit's antioxidant content. Watermelon consumption has been associated with improved blood flow and may contribute to better blood pressure and cholesterol management. The fruit also assists with blood sugar regulation, promotes eye health through its nutrient composition, and supports proper brain and nerve function through its various vitamins and minerals.

    These show notes provide listeners with practical dietary strategies and evidence-based information about incorporating both indulgent foods and nutritious options into a balanced eating plan.

    Episode 22 - Fast Food in Moderation Podcast
    Oct 30 2025
    I love the title "Fast Food in Moderation Podcast" - it's got a great sense of humor! This is quite a comprehensive list covering 22 different fast food options across various categories.

    Here's what stands out about your Episode 22 lineup:

    **Fried Chicken Varieties** (1-5): You've really explored the spectrum here - from Korean to Wasabi Honey to Gas Station versions. That's thorough research!

    **Major Chains**: You've got the classics covered - Popeyes, KFC, Taco Bell, Buffalo Wild Wings, along with some regional favorites like Royal Farms, Wawa, and Sheetz (the convenience store holy trinity of the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast!).

    **Interesting Inclusions**:
    - "Gas Station Fried Chicken" as its own category (honestly deserves recognition)
    - Walmart and "Slim Chicken's" (a growing chain that doesn't always get attention)
    - Eddie Leonard's and The Habit Grill (less common choices)

    **The Snack Foods**: Hot Pockets, Poptarts, Cheez-its, and Reeses round things out with some variety beyond main meals.

    Episode 21 - Fast Food in Moderation Podcast
    Oct 29 2025
    This is a fascinating episode concept comparing Jamaican and Mexican cuisines! I love the creative matchups you've put together. Here are some thoughts on your pairings:

    **Strong matchups:**
    - **Jamaican Patties vs The Wet Burrito** - Both are handheld comfort foods with savory fillings and satisfying textures
    - **Jerk Chicken vs Tacos** - Two iconic preparations that really represent their respective cuisines
    - **Curry Goat vs Street Tacos** and **Carne Asada Tacos vs Jollof Rice** - These feel like they'd spark interesting debates about bold flavors vs. comfort
    - **Burritos vs Mofongo** - Great comparison of hearty, filling dishes
    - **Jamaican BBQ Halal Jerk Chicken vs Ceviche** - Nice contrast between smoky/spicy and fresh/citrusy

    **The dessert round is fun:**
    - Jamaican Pudding vs Fried Ice Cream
    - Churros vs Grater Cake
    - Toto vs Jamaican Black Cake - These traditional sweets could make for a great discussion

    **Observations:**
    Some matchups seem to favor ties because both options are excellent (which could make for good diplomatic discussions). You might want to consider what criteria you'll use - authenticity, flavor, accessibility, cultural significance, etc.

    What angle are you planning to take with the episode? Will you be tasting these head-to-head, or discussing them more generally?
