Mexican food is bomb. I used to live in California (and am unfortunately moving back in July). Garbage Burritos (don't be deceived by the name) are the best!

some of these numbers are a little scary

McDonald's Nutrition Facts, Calories, Fat, Protein, and Diet Information - Food Search Results - The Daily Plate Calorie Counter

but then again we could give a value meal or happy meal to every illegal on the way out
Some co-workers and I are going to Chili's and I couldn't find a single thing that had less than 1,000 mg of sodium.

Please come down for some chicken and sausage gumbo, boiled crawfish, crawfish ettoufee, boudin, red beans and rice, or some po'boys. My wife and I have been modifying traditional cajun meals to make them healthier than before.

Hope you've got a big table. You just made a lot of people hungry.

You won't get a toy with that in Santa Clara County, CA. Their leaders just voted to force restaurants to quit giving out toys because it encourages children to eat unhealthy stuff.

The health-Nazi's are on the march! Soon, they'll be at YOUR front door!
