20 Salads Worse Than a Whopper |
We love Whoppers. We bet you do, too. Meat, ketchup, mayo, pickles . . . what's not to like?
How could we endorse the Whopper? Well, no one orders it thinking it's a sensible menu choice. It's an indulgence, and everyone knows it. Credit Burger King for being transparent with nutritional information.
Just as you wouldn't order a Whopper because you're trying to watch your waistline, you'd never order a salad because it sounds like the most delicious item on the menu. No, it's a concerted effort put one of the healthiest foods on the menu into your body, flavor be damned.
Except, more often than you realize, that salad is the worst choice on the menu. Restaurants across the country have learned that "nutrition" sells, so they put these caloric calamities on the "light choice" side of the menu with cute little heart icons that make you think you're making a healthy selection. We've rounded up 17 examples of salads so bad, you'd be better off ordering that Whopper after all.
EAT THIS!
