Does anyone know if the nutritional info provided on the TGI Friday's website for this appetizer includes the tortilla chips or is it just the dip? 1000 calories seems really high if it doesn't include the chips.

    I'm no help for a definite answer, but I did a little comparison.

    Comparing TGIF to Chili's and Applebee's spinach dip, the TGIF number seems a bit on the low side; especially since the TGIF app is listed as an "appetizer to share", so it's not a small portion.

    Applebee's and Chili's both list their spinach dip at 1,600 calories. Chili's specifically includes the chips in that count. Applebee's doesn't specify, but lists chips and salsa at 960, so the chips alone do carry a lot of calories. The chip portion included with the appetizer is probably 500 calories worth.

    If I were in your shoes, I would believe the appetizer alone to be 1,000 and add in another 500 for the chips.

    I have had good luck e-mailing companies to ask about nutrition information. You may want to try getting an answer straight from them.
