The concept of a "salad" usually involves a bowl with various vegetables, some dressing and perhaps a piece of protein.
When the salad contains numerous croutons, a high fat cheese, a high fat bacon , avocodo, and a thick creamy dressing, all of a sudden this "salad" has turned into a high-caloric derailing meal.
Fast food restaurants offer in many cases a very high calorie salad but you are made to believe you are making a healthy choice. Do NOT be fooled...stay away from fast food restaurants and their salads.
High grade vegetables, chicken/tuna/salmon, a lite dressing...this is a healthy choice.

I went to Panera Bread yesterday for lunch. They are now listing their calorie counts on the menu. They have some suprisingly healthy, lower calorie choices. I had 1/2 of a Medeteranian Salmon Salad, and a cup of black bean soup for under 400 calories. I couldn't finish it. Instead of a bread you can get an apple. I agree though. Most places salad's are more fattening than a hamaburger!
