I ordered 3 crispy chicken crisper taco's, ate only one, black beans and rice, and it cost me 997 calories!!! the 3 tacos if I ate all 3 would have been 2020 calories without beans and rice and a lot of other selections are high too beware what you order. You may think you are getting something low calorie and you are packing a lot of them even with a partial amount eaten.

    There was a different thread a little while back about Chili's Guiltless Grill menu and how it was pretty much just a joke so definately beware of not just chili's cause I'm sure lots of restaurants do this... I wonder if Applebee's still has the weight watcher menu and if it's accurate???

    "Crispy chicken" is rarely a good thing in terms of diet ... at least when you're looking to lose weight :laugh: .

    I agree. Look for key words like "crispy" or "creamy" and avoid them like the plague!
