Do Panera salads include dressing in food logs? Or do I need to add those in addition?

If the dressing is part of the salad it's included. If it came without dressing, then you'd need to log it separately.

Can't agree with that. Panera has a good selection of meals that have reasonable portions. I can always get something that fits my calories there, and that I like eating. Definitely not a"diet killer".

OP, check the Panera website. It should say whether the dressing is included in the salad calories, or give separate entries for the dressing. The MFP database entries can be inaccurate, so be careful which one you use it create your own.

I agree, Panera is so easy to get something healthy if you don't order on menu. I never order any of the menu items I just custom make my own meals. For <400 calories I can have a youpick2 smoked turkey sandwich on whole grain/sourdough/rye with lettuce tomato onion, a classic cafe salad (I sub poppyseed or thai chili which is the lowest calorie dressing and add extra lettuce), and fruit cup!

Ummm what? A diet killer? Panera is amazing if you use your noggin. I love their Fuji Apple Chicken salad. Dressing is included in their calorie counts. On the app it has a feature where you can take items off and on and see the calories. Dressing is on there. I always ask for it on the side just to be safe because they are not measuring carefully. They just use a spoon and put it on. My little sister works there. Panera is life. I was also pleased to know from her that the meat and cheese is actually weighed. Made me feel better lol.

If your location near you has the new kiosks,and if you go to the customize option under the salad you pick it should show you each ingredient calories and even let you remove/add some!
