Looking for the healthier alternatives to nosh on when jet-setting across the country? Dietitians with the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, which surveyed airport eateries between June and November ranked airports best to worst and awarded a point to each restaurant serving at least one "low-fat, high-fiber, cholesterol-free breakfast, lunch, or dinner entree." Overall, the organization reports, healthy food is on the rise at airports, with 83% of airport vendors selling at least one healthy food option. So there's that. Now see which airports made top marks.

11. Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport
Atlanta¿s airport has terminals that are clogged with restaurants serving hot dogs, fried chicken, and pizza. But travelers looking for healthful meals can find a few choices, including spicy tofu made with vegetarian broth at Asian Chao, burritos or tacos with black beans, pinto beans, or tofu crumbles and grilled veggies (hold the cheese) at Moe¿s Southwest Grill, or Bistro Del Sol¿s Mediterranean Trio: hummus, tabouli, and stuffed grape leaves.
