The last time I visited my sister in NYC, I found out that New York was a full disclosure state, meaning that all restaurants had to supply the nutritional data of every item on their menu. My sister hates it because sometimes ignorance is bliss when you want a burger and fries and not think of the fact that you're eating your entire day's worth of calories and fat in one meal.
While I do agree with my elder sibling, when you're counting calories and watching what you're eating, it's helpful to have the facts laid out right in front of you so you can try to make the best choices possible because God only knows that something may look healthy on paper, but not in execution.
The reason I bring this up is that I know next Thursday I'll be going to The Cheesecake Factory because it's a friend's birthday and I'm treating her. I'm trying to find nutritional data and see what would be the wisest food choices for me to make, but...yikes (I don't live in a full disclosure state, BTW).
