Long term, there is no reason 400 cals of meat and carb would be different than 400 cal of veggie and meat - the trouble is people often eat more when they eat refined carbs, and short term it affects glycogen levels, meaning if you drop carbs you initially drop weight, but doesn't remain the case long term.

We adopted a rule a few years ago after a case of family food poisoning acquired in a Chinese restaurant in Richfield, Utah: Never eat Chinese food in a state that does not possess a salt-water boundary. (And no, the Once-Great Salt Lake does not qualify.)

No spinach in meat lasagna. No meat in veggie lasagna.

Speaking of dogs...I had a Chicago dog yesterday that was to die for...poppy-seed bun, mustard, onions, sweet relish, hot peppers, tomato, dill pickle spear, and just the right amount of celery salt...not a hint of ketchup. I'm salivating now just thinking about it.

I agree.. seems calories and having all four food groups in the tummy makes sense..

The only difference between Johnny's and, say, Portillo's is the price. It's a little expensive to fly Vienna Beef products up to Anchorage.

The only thing I'd mark them down on is not using a Vienna Beef hot dog. Otherwise, it was a perfect knock-off.
