Fat-burning wise, HIIT is clinically shown to be better than distance running. Although, I like to throw in some distance runs every once in awhile to mix up my workouts. Something like 80% of my runs are HIIT, the rest is long distance work.
For foods, learn how to read nutrition labels. In general, you want to stick to Jack Lalanne's advice, "If it's made by man, don't eat it." Add more colorful fruits and veggies, eat lots of lean meat, and for breads and cereals get whole grain. That's pretty much the basics, if you want more hardcore details, pick up the books Mastering the Zone and the Paleo Diet. I personally don't follow everything in those books down to the exact details, but they're good resources (LOL photocopy it) for nutrition info.
