This book was kind of a waste of time, for the most part.
A) I'm a vegetarian.
B) Most of them are pretty common sense.

I actually liked this even more than the Supermarket guide. Again, not only is it telling you what you should be eating, but why. I find that more important than preaching about the evils of Chicken Mcnuggets.
Unlike the supermarket guide, I would actually buy this one. Not that I will.

A quick guide to some of the best and worst menu items at a variety of chain restaurants. Also included is a guide to making informed decisions when looking at menus in general. The side-by-side comparisons are informative, but the list is by no means complete.
I would recommend books in this series to people looking for a basic awareness of nutrition, especially those who need to reduce sodium intake or who believe that just because they order a salad they are making healthy food choices.
Most chain restaurants now provide nutrition information on thier websites. Take a few minutes to look before you head out to eat.

Most of this book was nearly identical to the information provided in the Best & Worst Foods book. However, the last section of the book, which included tips on what to order in locally owned restaurants, was very helpful. I've perused the online menus for many chain sit-down restaurants to plan meals, but it's uncommon to find online menus, let alone calorie contents, for meals at local restaurants. I will definitely be using some of the ordering tips offered by this book.
