i just had a delicious Eggs Benedict, no English muffin & a side of sausage. A high fat, low carb, almost zero carb meal.
EXCEPT!!
The restaurant uses a mix that has 100 carbs for cup of sauce. And margarine. I can't find an equivalent to post. Margarine is one thing.... But all those carbs when I thought I was being virtuous.
Calories almost used up for the day, too.
Boooooooooo

    Urgh, hollandaise sauce made from margarine? And a packet mix?! Thats just lazy & unnecessary for any self respecting chef. Naughty restaurants - id be ashamed of serving people that cr@p. Not like its hard to make properly. This is why i dont eat out much anymore - i hate not knowing what im being fed; they put such cr@p in commercial food.
