But the cheddar bay biscuits at Red Lobster are sooo worth it. I usually find a way to make my entree/salad healthy enough that I can fit one of those yummy biscuits in, too .

I like those biscuits too. Everything in moderation.

About the only thing I like about Red Lobster is the biscuits. But I think i'd still take the half dozen Krispy Creme Doughnuts over a few shrimp and 2 biscuits.

tortilla chips at a mexican restaurant. Depending on the place, they can be utterly greasy and stale tasting or incredibly good that you're full by the time you get your entree. :0

It's all really meaningless to me. When I go out to eat I expect to throw a calorie bomb inside myself. This reminds me of the article about how unhealthy the Cheesecake Factory is. It's the Cheesecake Factory for crying out loud. I expect to let myself go and ingest 10,000 calories. Which is why I only do this once in a while, usually on an occasion. The vast majority of the time I stick to a strict diet while running five miles every morning. Now if someone goes out to eat fairly often, then they better watch out.

I almost never eat the bread that comes to the table.

But those cheddar thingies at Red Lobster are pretty tasty.

And he didn't even mention the free refills at the cola fountain.

When I was very tight on money, I always ate at Fazolis for lunch. Those free sticks saved me from starvation!

I bought 1 slice of cheese pizza for ~$1.50, got a cup of water to drink, and ate about 10 breadsticks. Sometimes that was my only meal, and it did the job.
