Something to chew on when you next go out to eat -- there is the obviously not healthy thing to eat, and then there is the illusion that something is good for you when it's not. Be careful where you eat, and know what you are getting into BEFORE you order it!
I can't believe that a single Awesome Blossom from Chili's packs enough calories that I would eat in almost TWO DAYS!!!
