Local news story, they went out to 3 supposedly healthy places and bought lunches and compared them to the Big Mac.

McDonalds - Big Mac: 550 calories, 29 grams fat

Salad Express: Salad with chicken breast strips: 660 calories, 35 grams of fat (sesame dressing!)

Olive Garden - Spagetti with meat sauce served with a bread stick: 780 calories, but only 16 grams of fat.

Finally, Bennigans - chicken, shrimp and pasta: 1200 calories and 63 grams of fat!
