“Roast turkey” and “market fresh” sound like ringing health endorsements for this sneaky sandwich. And since you’re being virtuous, why not add a little bacon, right? Unfortunately, at Arby’s that kind of thinking will lead you down the path to an unwitting cheat day. Arby’s four Market Fresh Roast turkey sandwiches are all — believe it or not — worse choices than its Roast Beef Classic sandwich. The biggest offender is the Roast Turkey Ranch & Bacon Sandwich; at 800 calories and 35 grams of fat, it’s the equivalent of one-and-a-half Big Macs, and will max out your daily sodium allowance in one meal. Opt for the Roast Beef Classic, and if you’ve got a craving for turkey, work it into a healthy at-home sandwich with one of these best condiments for weight loss.
