A new study from Gambilng.com found that one of Texas' favorite fast-food restaurants has the healthiest cheeseburger in all of the United States, check out who they were up against.

Whether it's a single or a double, Wendy's cheeseburger came in tenth in all of America. The square burger patty probably helped in getting it into the top 10.

9. Five Guys

The fries are probably what put Five Guys Burgers into the top 10. The burger is awesome but the fries are just as awesome if not awesomer.

8. McDonald's

McDonald's has been a go-to since the 50s from the special sauce on the Big Mac, to the fries and the huge straw to enhance the flavor of the Coke or Dr. Pepper you have with it.

7. Carl's Jr./Hardee's

Carl's Jr. is still new to the Midland/Odessa area and I have never tried their burgers but apparently, they are good enough to get them the number 7 spot in the Top 10 Healthiest Cheeseburgers in America.

6. Dairy Queen

Give me a good ol' Hunger Buster anytime and with the best soft-serve ice cream in the world, you can complete your Hunger Buster meal with a Blizzard.

5. Del Taco

This is the only taco restaurant that ended up in the Top 10 Healthiest Cheeseburgers in America. I guess when you are acquired by Jack in the Box, you make healthy burgers for those who come into your restaurant and do not want a burrito or taco.

4. Culver's

I know nothing about Culver's but they do have several restaurants in Texas with the closest one being in Kerrville as pictured above. I will be trying the cheeseburger at Culver's next time I am in Kerrville since they made it to #4 on the Top 10 Healthiest Cheeseburgers in America.

3. Checker's/Rally's

Another restaurant I know nothing about but the next time I am in Houston, I will check out the Checker's to see how good their burgers are since they landed at #3.

2. In-N-Out

I have been to an In-N-Out Burger and they are pretty good, I didn't realize they were #2 in the Top 10 Healthiest Cheeseburgers in America but next time I am in Dallas, I will get myself one.

1. Whataburger

Well of course the healthiest burger is also a Texas favorite. The Whataburger with cheese performed the best in 4 categories, “It has the second lowest fat and calorie contents (per ounce) in the entire study – which contributes to the sandwich earning a final score of 8.4 out of 10. It also performs well in the salt and sugar categories, putting this chain that’s operated in the US for over 70 years at the top of the list,” the study said. Guess what I am having for lunch now!!
