Sometimes we're busy and stop in a fast food restaurant. I've never heard of most of the ones on the 2 lists though. Very interesting.

Regular restaurants are just as bad or worse in many cases. You have to know what you are getting into when entering.

That's why I always google the menu prior to eating in any unfamiliar restaurant. I have saved myself a lot of experiences where the food wouldn't be enjoyable or healthy.

I love this salad at Panera: Power Chicken Hummus Bowl and it is only 270 calories!

Hi Magic I don't like hummus so that would not appeal to me. I know a lot of my friends love hummus. I do not believe that salad is 270 calories though, LOL. I think they are underestimating calorie content by about 100 calories. But, all that matters is that YOU like it.

Way to burst my bubble, win! Just kidding! Maybe it is more than 270 calories, but it could be close since 2 Tbsp. of hummus have 50 calories. But I have probably eaten at Panera twice in the past year and hubby and I share this salad.

I am not much of a fan of fast food. I do enjoy going out less often and then splurging at a better restaurant. In honesty though, we enjoy cooking at home with good groceries and uncomplicated food.

Panera is good. Love their soups, salads and sandwiches. The Greek salad is very nice and their onion soup is so savory and tasty but don't look for that thick slab of cheese on top... Funny thing is, after a bit, I've come to prefer it their way...
