I did not know that, thanks for the advice, I had no clue about that, I figured it was healthy but I usually have ranch dressing smothered on it anyways lol so I guess I have never ate healthy when it comes to salads.

Ranch is about the most unhealthy of all the packaged salad dressings. Probably why it tastes so good. I watch these parents in pizza joints and restaurants letting their kids dip every bite of food into ranch and wonder why their kids are little chugbutts. Watched one group of teenagers at a pizza buffet each eat 3 salad bowls of ranch. They dipped every bite in.
I've had to watch my weight my whole life. Got as high as 350lbs. Try to keep it around 210 now. I have acquired a taste over the years for good vinaigrettes. Olive oil is a good fat, unless you go crazy with it. It is simple to take a little balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and add whatever you like. Dijon mustard, honey, shallots, citrus fruit, etc. Makes a tasty and much healthier dressing. Too bad chicken fried steak, ranch dressing, carrot cake, and all my other favorites aren't as good. Have to limit them to about once a month.

Fast food salads usually have cheese and bacon and crispy chicken (vs. the healthier grilled chicken) and all those other yummy things that are so bad for you on them.

My sister worked for flying J in Franklin Ky I65 x2 i think, maybe x6...but quit after they MADE her fry chicken that was spoiled because it had sat out to long. She got sick for a week from handling it.

Ive eaten at a few flying J's and have had the worst experince with food from them, havent ate at one in over 8 months from it.

They have the WORST food in my opinion...but you eat it up if you like!
