A whole bunch of major restaurant chains are in here as well as how long you have to walk/run/swim to burn off your favorite munchies. It's a rather depressing site but good knowledge for those of us trying to eat as healthy as possible.

You just had to ruin it didn't you. Saturday night dinners will never be the same. :(

Nope.

I'll just rely on leading a generally healthy lifestyle, working out, healthy eating in general and portion control when I do splurge.

Dammit, I have to go run for 76 min now to burn off the Carvel sundae I had last night.

Heh, during the Atkins craze the restaurant I slanged burgers at (Island's) introduced "high-protein platters." I sold a ton of those things to the Atkins people.

Yep. I've learned that pretty much anything you eat at a restaurant that has meat in it is LOADED with a bunch of bad stuff :( Also do look at the portion size. 2 pounds. Who eats 2 pounds of food in one sitting?

This is also a great site:

Not only does it list restaurants, but it also lists products from companies like Kraft/Nabisco, General Mills, Anheuser-Busch, etc. And it tells you how many Weight Watchers Points items are worth as well.

Whats even more depressing is they have Sprinkles Cupcakes on there now. I don't want to know how much crap is in one of those delightful globs of goodness. I just ordered 18 of them for this weekend!!!
