This is true. Ya gotta be careful with salads, especially the Ranch or Blue Cheese or 1000 Island - Those calories can pile up. I like to eat a Cobb salad at Village Inn, and if I have it with Ranch it's 800 something calories, with Vinegar (nummers!) it's 400 something. Like Covert Bailey used to say before he disappeared, it's usually not the food - it's the crap we put
on the food
