You want to know what Outback serves you go on the internet. They'll tell you right there.
It's really not their fault you forgot to bring your i-POD with you for an instant check.

My weariness with meddlesome leftist sob’s is rapidly evolving into an intense hatred. Nobody worthy of the name ‘American’ would vote for such human dreck.

but instead of fighting them, the food industry is pushing for a somewhat less intrusive bill. As long as this remains the dynamic we are all just totally screwed. (so I guess we shouldn’t hold our breath waiting for more Harry and Louise ads...)

Health advocates believe that when people see the amount of calories, fat and salt in meals before they order them, they will gravitate to more healthful selections. Oh BS. They just want to harass big successful companies.
Mark my words, if they get this through, they will up the ante ... next will be govt control of what restaurants can serve.

Yes, and the subsequent reductions in portions.....long a holy grail. Restaurants will eagerly accept since it’ll increase their margins with smaller portions.
Bye bye to the Buffet, the Huge rack of ribs etc.
