From a food-weight and calorie perspective, Chipotle is off the charts with its sodium. A Big Mac is probably healthier even with its higher fat and sugar content than any typical Chipotle option.LJ;1077955 wrote:Five guys is fattening as hell

No one is angry that any business takes Saturday or Sunday off. I think it may be a bad business decision but it doesn't make me angry or anything.Manhattan Buckeye;1078012 wrote:1) Off-topic, I wonder if the "tolerant" group among us are p.o.'ed that many Jewish observer-owned bagel shops and jewelry stores on 47th street in NYC take Saturday off...or if their anger is focused on just one particular religion, nice tolerance.
2) On-topic, McDonald's McGriddle breakfast sandwich - any of them. Wife and I had them after landing in Port Columbus after about 16 hours of no food (not even pretzels on the plane) and we just wanted anything and foolishly didn't order an Egg McMuffin or wait until we got to a Bob Evans, we almost retched them out before we got to Chillicothe.
There sandwiches aren't bad, I just don't eat fast food that much.Manhattan Buckeye;1078035 wrote:"It's that I find their prices high for the food they serve"
I'm guessing you're in the minority, I don't eat fast food much but Chik Fil A is the bomb, they actually use real chicken breast so you know the meat is good. Sorry that your political opinions have stopped you from enjoying a good product. Your loss.
Most people are tricked into thinking Subway is healthy. They've got a great marketing department. The only time Subway is close to healthy is when you eat a stripped down 6" sub with nothing tasty on it. And then you are still eating processed meat.Fab1b;1077957 wrote:Also agree though subway has healthy options by no means are the others listed healthy in any way! Also I can get a salad or plain grilled chicken breast at McD's to.
IWP Tell me if I’m understand this correctly. You don't like the company Chick-fil-a because of it political stance on some issue and the companies donations to some group that you are in opposition to. So because of this factor you don't patronize the restaurant is this correct?</SPAN>I Wear Pants;1078038 wrote:There sandwiches aren't bad, I just don't eat fast food that much.
Plus there aren't any around me and when I am in areas that do have them like Columbus I choose to eat elsewhere because I like other things better. I've never wanted to go to Chick fil a but said "no, I don't like their politics". If I really wanted it I would go.
But that doesn't mean I have to like the company.

They do have great marketing. When they brought out the Turkey bacon club or whatever it's called, they touted it as only 550 calories, but that's for a 6 inch, so if you had a footlong for dinner, you're taking in more calories than you would have if you had a Big Mac or a Whopper. They're basically passing some of their subs off as healthy, when it's really just about portion control. Subway has been a staple of my diet while I've lost about 20lbs over the last month, but I have a stripped down sandwich that doesn't include any cheese, and only a little bit of oil for dressing.WebFire;1078041 wrote:Most people are tricked into thinking Subway is healthy.

If you strip down any sandwich to the meat and veggies it won't be near as bad for you. I laugh at people who go to Subway and order a Chicken Bacon Ranch with the cheese bread, add mayo, and think it's healthy because it's Subway. :rolleyes:
Exactly. And you can go just about anywhere and get a small stripped down sandwich for the calories they advertise.se-alum;1078073 wrote:They do have great marketing.

I didn't say they were healthier, I said they seemed healthier. At least with the 3 I mentioned (minus Subway with meat), the ingredients are more fresh. Like others have said, Subway advertises healthy food and has fresh ingredients.LJ;1077955 wrote:Five guys is fattening as hell

Chipotle's meat is organically grown, so it's obviously better for you than the processed mystery meat at McD, BK....
Pretty much any restaurant out there isn't necessarily "good" for you for a variety of reasons (usually portion size), but at least Chipotle and Subway make the effort to at least seem like a better option.
Is some of it trickery? Yea, it is. However, at the end of the day, the quality of ingredients are far better than at the others.LJ;1078108 wrote:So they make better effort to do a better job at tricking you?
Just a hint, Chipotle is owned by McDonalds, and they buy their meat from the same producers. They just get different cuts for the 2 different restaurantsbigkahuna;1078114 wrote:Is some of it trickery? Yea, it is.

I always loved it when Coldwater would play LCC in football or basketball growing up so we could go to Kewpee! Love that place. Then I worked at UPS about 500 yards away from it. On a good summer day when the wind was right you could smell Kewpee......and I ate there W A Y too much!oberhaus;1077952 wrote:KewPee in Lima area. Horrible.
True..you can get a stripped down Big mac.....but then it isnt a big mac. WIthout the sauce it is basically a double burger with a little extra bread.WebFire;1078090 wrote:Exactly. And you can go just about anywhere and get a small stripped down sandwich for the calories they advertise.
