I LOVE chicken, it is my favorite meat and is what I usually eat. My diet consists of a lot of fruits, veggies, and chicken (with some turkey and pork thrown in there from time-to-time). I just appreciate the freedom one has with chicken, how it can be manipulated and can take on so many flavors. I also think of it as one of the more healthy options short of vegetarianism. Well, with that said, let me share something with you courtesy of Men's Health and ''Eat This, Not That.'' It is the list of the Unhealthiest Chicken Dishes in America:
- NUMBER 8 -- Worst Chicken Sandwich
- Chili's Buffalo Chicken Ranch
- 1,560 calories
- 86 g of fat (*Note*...WHAT THE HECK!?!?!?!)
- NUMBER 7 -- Worst Chicken Salad
- California Pizza Kitchen Waldorf Chicken Salad w/ Blue Cheese Dressing
- 1,570 calories
- 30 g of saturated fat
- NUMBER 6 -- Worst Chicken Rice Dish
- Applebee's Crispy Orange Rice Bowl
- 1,880 calories
- 13 g of saturated fat
- NUMBER 5 -- Worst Chicken Nachos
- Baja Fresh Charbroiled Chicken Nachos (*Note*...Don't let ''charbroiled'' fool you)
- 2,020 calories
- 110 g of fat (*Note*...I don't even understand how something has that much fat)
- PS: The article says that you could eat an entire package of Chewy Chips Ahoy! cookies, plus, a twin pack of Twinkies and still come out ahead on the amount of fat in this one meal.
- NUMBER 4 -- Worst Chicken Appetizer
- Outback Steakhouse Alice Springs Chicken Quesadilla
- 2,141 calories
- 133 g of fat (*Note*...Again, how in the world does something contain that much fat???)
- PS: Outback Steakhouse is one of the worst restaurants out there for not striving to offer healthy options, cook their food in healthier ways, and publishing their nutrition information. In fact, they only put out their nutrition facts in New York and California because it is required by law there...the rest of us are out of luck.
- NUMBER 3 -- Worst "American" Chicken Entree
- The Cheesecake Factory Chicken and Biscuits
- 2,511 calories
- 66 g of saturated fat
- NUMBER 2 -- Worst Chicken Cutlet
- The Cheesecake Factory Crispy Chicken Costoletta
- 2,556 calories
- 85 g of saturated fat (*Note*...This exceeds the daily intake limit of saturated fat for a family of four)
- NUMBER 1 -- Worst Chicken Entree in America
- The Cheesecake Factory Farfalle with Chicken & Roasted Garlic
- 2,579 calories
- 62 g of saturated fat
It's a dangerous world out there...don't let chicken get the best of you.
Until Next Time...
