    i checked the weight watchers points on the provolone stuffed meatballs and fettuccine, aka the number 1 worst food on the list

    its 38 points, the equivalent of two and half of my days worth of food.

  • They're just adding to the standard American's misperceptions about food portions.
  • That is ridiculous!
  • i would have ordered it if i wasnt aware of nutrition like i am these days.

    would have been my fave thing i bet too!
  • SCARY!!!

    Yeah seriously- I always scrutinize the nutrition menu when I eat somewhere- looking for the lowest carb/calorie item I can and ALWAYS drinking water!
  • i honestly would have ordered that before as well, i love meat, cheese and and carbs. Today though, no way.. it would not be worth it.
  • im a carboholic! im insane with pasta bread and rice and cereals even.
    but im not counting carbs, for me its more about fat, and i eat just around 30g a day, so the provolone centered meatballs = 97g of fat, thats 3 days of fat for me!?

    gotta be kidding.
  • I eat at Applebees often and use the nutrition data to order other entrees that fit with my low cal/reduced carb plan. It is possible and delicious but it takes effort.

    No effort in ordering pasta and cheese, KWIM.
  • Does anyone else think that the Friendly's SuperMelt-Burger-Grilled-Cheese thing is disgusting? Even if I wasn't on a diet I wouldn't order that!
