I got a cesar salad from Safeway today and looked at the fatgrams.....there were 40. I would have been better off eating ice cream for lunch!!! I could have had two cheeseburgers!!! :cursing:
I know! I hate it when restaurants do that to salads. I used to order a lot of salads and just get the dressing on the side, but after figuring out the calorie info for the toppings like cheese, beans, and avocado, I decided it wasn't worth it. I'll just eat salads at home.

That is a lot of fat!! I never put dressing on my salads. I always get it on the side and just barely dip in the dressing. I eat like 1/4 or less of what it comes with that way. I know it is still not as healthy as no dressing but it gives it a little flavor and cuts the fat and calories way down.
I've discovered a love for turkey burgers. With baby bella mushrooms. I still eat a lot of salads, but all veggie ones and only non fat dressing. And I may be weird, but I put a 1/4 a cup cottage cheese in my salad.
