Want the Tour of Italy Lasagna from Olive Garden? What about the Buffalo Chicken Fajitas at Chili's? Feel hungry for the Admiral's Feast at Red Lobster? Those were the three dishes John McKenzie singled out on ABC's A Closer Look from the nutritional analysis of 102 different meals at national restaurant chains by the Center for Science in the Public Interest.
It turns out that you want none of them. Each individual dish contains between two and three times the maximum total intake of salt we are supposed to eat in an entire day. NBC's Rehema Ellis covered the salt story too. She quoted Chili's explanation that the chain prides itself on catering to "health conscious or indulgent" diners. The owner of Red Lobster and Olive Garden told Ellis that they "appeal to a broad range of taste preferences and dietary needs."
