    Maybe if they're battered and deep fried. The way I make them, 350 cals for 10 wings.

    I remember thinking that Arby's turkey market fresh sandwich was a good plan--700 calories!

    Quiznos Honey Mustard Chicken Wrap.
    1000 calories... 500 in chicken / veggies / wrap, 500 in dressing! Only made that mistake once.




    Alternative to Arby's market fresh sandwich is their wraps. Get the turkey / swiss one dry and it's not too bad (500 or so?).

    All muffins at coffee shops like Starbucks/Caribou, etc. are upwards of 400 calories. It's so depressing. :P Plus a Cinnabon classic Cinnamon Bun is 880. *dies*

    A teeny tiny itty bitty slice of white chocolate carmel macademia nut cheesecake at the cheesecake factory was 1220 calories. I knew it would be damn high (I was guessing 700ish), but for the crazy small size of it, I wasn't thinking that high!

    70 calories for a single Carrs Ginger Lemon Creme cookie.


    I wasn't interested, but at Pax, a chain restaurant, I saw enormous cupcakes that looked like the old Hostess chocolate cupcakes with the squiggle on steroids for over 500 calories.

    At least the calories were posted. I'm amazed by people who complain about the information being listed in restaurants. They apparently feel they have a right to live in ignorance and everyone else should be shielded from the truth.
