If people had a clue as to how bad it is dining in an Earls, Moxies, etc.. they'd be shocked.

Besides the ultimate point is not to demonize these things, just do it in moderation like anything else in life. It would be nice though if restaurants were forced to show people how much fat, salt, carbs, calories...
Most restaurants have nutrition information available if you look for it. Ie:

Earl's:http://www.earls.ca/food-menu/index....&Itemid=61&id=

Some restaurants have it available online, others in the restaurant if you ask. It's definitely better than a couple of years ago, but I agree; they should have it right on the menu. Also, some restaurants are a royal pain in the ass to get it.

I agree, though, at least fast food all have it readily available. Restaurants can hide the bad stuff quite easily. A healthy chicken salad is 1200 calories. Diet killers for sure.
