The Darden restaurant company pledged Thursday to reduce calories and sodium by 20 percent over 10 years.

Call me skeptical, but all this means to me is blander food in smaller portions that I have to pay the same price for anyway.

I have no problem whatsoever with Darden doing this. One Red Lobster biscuit contains 300 calories and who knows how much sodium. Their good, but I bet they can be just as good if made a little lighter. As far as french fries go, Red Lobster has about the worst fries in the world so I don’t see this as any great loss. Finally, I’m sure Darden wouldn’t do this if they didn’t think it would make them more dough in the long run.
