16 things restaurants don’t want you to know

Men’s Health has posted a list of 16 Things Restaurants Don’t Want You to Know:

16. Sit-down chains don’t want you to know:
That their food is actually considerably worse for you than the often-maligned fast-food fare. In fact, our menu analysis of 24 national chains revealed that the average entree at a sit-down restaurant contains 867 calories, compared with 522 calories in the average fast-food entree. And that’s before appetizers, sides, or desserts—selections that can easily double your total calorie intake.
