Deception!
Ugh, I hate it when I’ve been eating at a place that served seemingly healthy foods and then find out that they are anything but. The only food vendor in my building is a bagel shop new to middle Tennessee. The bagels themselves are fine, unless you get the one covered in cheese, but that’s to be expected. But “reduced-fat” cream cheese is 5 grams of fat for 1 serving. You might as well splurge for the “full-fat” cream cheese at 7 grams of fat.
But what really kills me are the sandwiches and salads. Just a basic egg sandwich has 20 grams of fat. Add turkey sausage and it’s 24 grams of fat. I would expect the sausage to have more fat than the eggs…..what the hell are they putting in them!?!?
And then the salads…omg. The “healthiest” salad has 38 grams of fat and 330 calories. And that salad doesn’t even have meat on it. Add chicken to it for another 100 calories and 4 grams of fat. The dressing must be the culprit.
Anyway, I guess I won’t be eating on site as much as I’d hoped. The Black Bean Burger from Cheeseburger Charlie’s is sounding better and better with only 1.5 grams of fat. Then I won’t feel bad for adding a slice of cheese!
