This is why I always order dressing on the side and use the dipped fork method rather than pouring it on.
"Posted calorie counts in chain restaurants are often inaccurate, and weight-conscious consumers who select soups and salads are especially likely to be served heftier dishes than advertised, according to a new study from Boston researchers [reported in JAMA]."
However, it's important to remember that there is a vendetta out on so-called "fast food" restaurants. So read with a word of caution. Eat less, move more--that's the plan that will help both your body and your brain.

I was trying to comment on this the other day, and MY internet connection died. So frustrating lately! Anyway, yes, the war on fast food -- as if huge plates of creamy pasta in sit-down restaurants are healthful. Bah! Better off with a quickie little drive-thru cheeseburger.
In these studies, they should gauge the sedentary lifestyle of people who use fast food, rather than just count the calories.
