16 Secrets The Restaurant Industry Doesn't Want You to Know ohmy.gif
By David Zinczenko, editor-in-chief of Men's Health and author of Eat This, Not That

Just a few clues in case you ever wondered why America has become so fat and unhealthy . . . . mad.gif

This might also make you feel better about not wanting to eat out. Your inner excuse is cross-contamination. Your excuse you give people is info like this. And ask them why they want to eat this stuff! ph34r.gif

Yuck.

Thanks for the link.. that was a fascinating read. I'm in Texas, so there is no hope of forcing places here to provide that data.

On the bright side, most of this doesn't apply to us. Pecan Chicken Crusted Salad? Sounds like it has gluten. Mozzarella sticks? Totally breaded.
And any place that won't disclose nutritional info, including ingredients, Celiacs shouldn't want to patronize anyway. wink.gif

I think it a no-brainer that anything consumed at those restaurants would not be good for you, even without the nutritional information.
Portion sizes are so big, it's ridiculous. Being diagnosed with celiac disease is actually a good thing as it prevents most people that follow the diet from even thinking of eating there. I don't know why there is all this discussion about what is causing obesity in this country.....too much food and too little movement.
