It appears that the restaurant information, even for those restaurants included, is incomplete. For instance, the section on Friendly's includes only a few ice cream and dessert information and nothing about the meals. Only information readily available (information about McDonald's meals, for example) is included. The sample contains only random selection of fast food restaurants. There are no guesstimates about typical dishes in non-fast food restaurants. Admitedly the accuracy of these guesses would be ball park figures, but it could serve as a guideline.


Listings to many chains plus take out entrees.   August 31, 2001

This is a nice informative book. Only trouble is how the listings are arranged and the fact that some of the foods available at the chain restaurants were omitted. An index, would have helped out tremendously. All in all though, the listings for the foods are fairly extensive. I guess the book would have been enormous as well as quite costly if every food available at the chain restaurants was included. I was able to find the approximate caloric content of many Chinese foods plus alchohol beverages. It was a pleasant surprise to be able to have info such as this, in the book. :-)

The book is seriously out of date and should be taken off the market!

This book has calories, fat, carbs, chol, and sodium but NOT protein. If that is not important to you, it is a good guide.
