And that’s where Eat This, Not That! comes in: We’ve analyzed and graded 66 different chain restaurants—fast food and sit-down—to determine which ones have healthy options, and which could turn out to be diet disasters.

    Anything in moderation is fine. Eating at one of these places every now and again isn't going to hurt you. Now, if you eat like this everyday, then you may have a problem.

    This article made me think of a recent news items about this 4,800 calorie burger now being served at a MI baseball park.

    Whitecaps' Fifth Third Burger not for faint of heart

    by Michael Zuidema | The Grand Rapids Press Wednesday March 25, 2009, 12:00 PM



    Rex Larsen | The Grand Rapids PressJosh Kowalczyk, an intern with the West Michigan Whitecaps, tries to get his hands around the Fifth Third Burger.

    COMSTOCK PARK -- The next item the West Michigan Whitecaps might want to consider selling at Fifth Third Ballpark concession stands is antacids. Or cholesterol medication.

    That is because their newest menu option is a 4,800-calorie mouthful.

    The team's Fifth Third Burger recently garnered attention from ESPN's "SportsCenter" and NBC's "The Today Show," in addition to Web sites and blogs across the country.

    "We always try to come up with something new and innovative," Whitecaps president Scott Lane said. "We believe it's very important to the overall experience."
