Remember the story of Hansel and Gretel? How the witch of the woods lured them into her edible candy hut and gave them piles and piles of free foodjust so she could fatten them up and turn them into stew?
Well, think about that old fairy tale the next time a waiter drops a plate of free food on your table...

The author is certainly entitled to his opinion.
That said, they'll get my Red Lobster cheddar biscuits when they pry them FROM MY COLD DEAD HANDS. :-)

Sounds like Yahoo Health Guy is having an affair with Michelle.

Agreed! Those are damn tasty.

I always find it amusing when they go after mass market chains, and ignore the luxury restaurants. That said, most restaurant visits are an extravagance rather than an every day diet. If you’re eating at Red Lobster every night, then yeah, refraining from cheese biscuits is a good idea. Once a month? Have a fresh salad tomorrow at lunch to make up for it. :)

...they'll get my Red Lobster cheddar biscuits when they pry them FROM MY COLD DEAD HANDS. Hear, hear! But your hands will be toasty from the biscuits.
The best pies are from The Blue Owl in Kimmswick MO.

What’s the big problem with unlimited french fries with your burger at Ruby Tuesday’s — I use Tabasco instead of ketchup and save a few calories. :-)

They are so easy to duplicate, you can have them any time you want. Just use Bisquick, extra sharp cheddar grated rough, a dash of Garlic salt and for liquid use sweet milk. Bake as large or small as you want. I tend to push the dough into a one inch thick sheet and ‘cut’ biscuits with a ball one quart jar rim. Use one cup of bisquick to 3/4 cup of extra sharp cheddar. I sometimes use generous dose of ranch dressing instead of all sweet milk. They’re goo ood.

I enjoy the free single malt Scotch appetizers served at Che Comedian.
Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

why go to Olive Garden if youre going to skip the salad and bread sticks?I agree. My mouth waters for them every time I pass an Olive Garden. I eat there every chance I get.
To: jiggyboy
Sprinkling French fries with Worcestershire sauce is really tasty, too — and less calories than ketchup.

You forgot the important part. Before you bake them, you have to dip the raw biscuit into a bowl of melted butter mixed with a little garlic powder. Proceed with baking and you have your own little steaming mound of heaven....

every single enchilada dish will cost you at least 1,000 calories. IMHO, there's a mentally unhealthy attitude toward food lurking in this statement.

I like to have the garlic flavor throughout the biscuit, so I use McCormick's ‘California Style’ Garlic powder with parsley. Since I've started learnign to bake my own breads, I've discovered a nice whole wheat bread with the McCormick's in it. Makes a great dipping bread for EVOO infused with herbs.
