Americans spend more than $500 billion a year eating out,
and behind each burger, turkey sandwich, and ice cream
sundae is a simple decision that could help you control your
weight--and your life. The problem is, restaurant chains and
food producers aren't interested in helping you make healthy
choices. In fact, they invest $30 billion a year on
advertising, much of it aimed at confusing eaters and
disguising the fat and calorie counts of their
products.
Thankfully Eat This,
Not That! Restaurant Survival Guide is here to help. It’s
the first book in the Eat This, Not That! series to focus
solely on burger shacks, pizza parlors, pasta joints,
breakfast diners, Mexican cantinas, Chinese eateries,
drive-thrus, and coffee shops. With in-depth coverage of 80
of the biggest restaurant chains in the country, it arms you
with the information you need to take control of your diet
and sidestep the egregious calorie-landmines that are
secretly sabotaging your chances of losing weight. And why
would restaurants do such a thing? Because people keep
buying. The top brass at any restaurant knows that the more
food that goes onto the plate, the more drastically the
customers will underestimate the caloric heft. That’s why
the average cheeseburger has 136 more calories today than it
did in the 1970s and why two-thirds of the country is now
overweight or obese.
