However, I have a daughter that is allergic to dairy. She was taken to Cheddars for lunch and had the chicken tenders, which I am suspecting have dairy in the batter given how she is feeling now since I got home from work. Would it kill Cheddars to at least have a damn allergen list of the items on their menu posted so that people can at least make educated choices, or know what their kid just ate? YOu cannot count on the staff to know what is in the food they are warming up or serving, unfortunately...chshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01428800329671358368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4351660192828325284.post-58957445452729826932014-05-14T22:53:58.828-07:002014-05-14T22:53:58.828-07:00Fushia you are the one that is being ridiculous an...Fushia you are the one that is being ridiculous and apparently don't know much about health or nutrition. so here is some information for you. if you read the post about the child with diabetes you would see that it say juvenile diabetes (type 1) not type 2 diabetes. juvenile diabetes is an auto immune disorder in which the body attacks the cells in the pancreas that produce insulin it has nothing to do with a poor diet, actually most type 1 diabetes are thin not fat. juvenile diabetes are insulin dependent and need to know the amount of carbs and sugar in there meal in order to know how much insulin to use. use of to little or to much cause major health problems. <br />As far as just knowing something like a grilled chicken salad is healthy and chicken strips are not is not the simple when it comes to eating out. yes i know that a chicken breast by itself is healthy I don't know how they cooked it was it grilled in butter, was it marinated is there a lot of sugar or salt in the marinade, how many added calories are in the sauce. Not to mention i have know way of knowing if the sauce/marinade has nuts, soy, pineapple that i could have an allergic reaction to. Salads can have a lot of calories, sugar, and fat. The salads at McDonald have more calories than a Big Mac.<br />For it being to expensive that is just ridiculous, cheddars is a large profitable chain, they can afford it. village inn has nutritional information for each specific location. if they can afford to give nutritional info for each individual store I think that cheddars can afford to make a nutritional per region. csv22https://www.blogger.com/profile/08895311190257919550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4351660192828325284.post-31008013029229208212014-04-23T08:44:23.868-07:002014-04-23T08:44:23.868-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14933692213269341543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4351660192828325284.post-3328191708152268762013-01-30T06:25:46.221-08:002013-01-30T06:25:46.221-08:00No disrespect but this IS RIDICULOUS!!!

If I want to lose weight I don't go to McDonald's order everything then complain when they cant tell me the calories (altho they can). I would make a healthier selection that I know is going to help reach my goal. Theres no sense in bringing other people down because they don't do what you want. I did find a few items off Cheddars menu with a calorie count so the info is out there, just gotta dig deep. There is no reason to be bickering like little children because a restaurant(1 single place) doesnt show calories. Find somewhere else, or cook. What you should coplain about is do servers wash their hands after handling money. Who knows where those one dollar bills been.

Now imagine you are allergic to soy (which is in everything because it's a very inexpensive preservative) and you just want to go out to eat. You can't because restaurants refuse to provide their nutritional information. So are you required to cook for yourself every night because you are physically unable to consume soy products? Or what if you're allergic to wheat/gluten? People don't want the nutritional information because they are fat, or they are just watching their weight. It's a health hazard waiting to happen. It's a little boy going into anaphylactic shock because the restaurant declined to say that butter was on their steak and that their butter contains soy or lecithin. This is a serious problem.Darcyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07882972109108092486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4351660192828325284.post-21146711144771484862011-11-09T17:24:41.382-08:002011-11-09T17:24:41.382-08:00They are not concerned about the fat or calories. ...They are not concerned about the fat or calories.

I do agree that this information should be available, but at the same time its common sense. I waitress there and many people will come in claiming to be on a "diet" yet they order appetizers, fried foods with cheese, and burgers with fries, regardless of my suggestions. Its stupid and ignorant. Honestly, I love the grilled salmon as well as the talipia (fish=healthy), fresh veggies (especially the broccoli) and the salads are amazing. Burger king posts their unhealthy crap right on the wall where you order, some of their foods with more than 40 grams of fat and 1300 calories, yet they make billions of sales everyday. The nutritional imformation doesnt seem to be helping anyone, because those customers already know they are making a bad choice.

You shouldn't be eating at it often enough to cause any sort of harm to your diet, and if you do eat out constantly, then you should know what type of foods to get already. I don't give a crud about nutritional value at a restaurant because I go there only occasionally as a treat, so I'm going to order whatever I want to.

I think that they should have the information available, but quite frankly, for the type of restaurant it is, I have never seen better service. Maybe they spend more time and money training their staff than worrying about intake. If you watch or read weight loss programs, they will tell you if you dont have the nutritional information, than portion and choose smartly.<br />Also, the information that is posted on any label is giving you the very least of the requirements that FDA imposes, so alot of it is a slightly educated guess.<br />The key is balance. If you eat out, then balance it elsewhere in your day.<br />I will also write to Cheddars, for those that want or need this information, but I am not going to boycott them for not having it.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18041709299348712135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4351660192828325284.post-12213045056807738392010-12-15T13:48:44.573-08:002010-12-15T13:48:44.573-08:00Heavens!

Ya, it sucks that I can't find out how many calories were in the dijon mushroom chicken dish that I ate...but it was a crap ton of food so I asked for a box at the beginning of the meal to put half of it into so I wouldn't gain half a pound. Jesus, imagine if every poor mom and pop restaurant had to list nutrition information--not every dang place keeps the same menu all of the time...or have enough money to publish the information. Eat proper portions...your stomach should not be stuffed with more than could be squeezed into the space taken up by a fist.

A bit of cheese, a handful of nuts, some cranberries or corn and black beans. It all adds up and how dare you say people don't have a right to know what they're eating just because they want to eat out. <br /><br />You're probably the same rude people who teased overweight kids when you were in elementry school. You're not special or superior because you don't want nutrition information you're simply taking chances with your health that I won't. <br /><br />I am a completely healthy person, I've never had a weight problem. I am now a registered dietician/nutritionist and I tell my clients not to eat anything they don't have information for first. Just because it's not fried doesn't make it healthy. You should know if that chicken topping your salad was grilled with butter or not because that 200 extra calories and 20 grames of fat DOES make a difference.

I DO think that there should be a requirment of nutritional facts to be available for all menu items. I am a bariatric patient and I am required to get 90 grams of protien every day. So I have to plan out what I eat. I am so limited in portion size... I need to know that the peice of grilled fish I ate is approximately 4 ounces... and what it was cooked in. This helps me know if I met my nutritional goals for the day. <br /><br />We take responsibility on ourselves by not ordering chicken fingers and french fries. I personally work 10 hours a day with a 1 -2 hour commute each way depending on traffic. Cooking for myself and my husband is not always an option. Unless I cook all weekend... I could not possibly cook at home every night. And I am sorry. I work too long of hours to spend all weekend working too. <br /><br />I dont think since each food item that we get in the store has to be labeled... it is too far of a stretch to ask that prepared foods have paperwork for nutrition as well ... available for request by the customer.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15287174144675792233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4351660192828325284.post-32804445250865356042009-10-20T08:12:33.836-07:002009-10-20T08:12:33.836-07:00How about this idea. . . if you really want to eat...How about this idea. . . if you really want to eat "healthy" cook for yourself at HOME!!

For me, if I am going out to eat then I automatically know that I am not eating healthy. If you limit your meals out to 1-2 times a month it isn't going to sabatoge your goals.

I, too, got similar comments about not having nutritional information from Cheddars, when I had emailed them. I agree with others who say, they could at least provide it for their core menu items, which hasn't really appeared to change from what I'm seeing at ours in Hendersonville, TN.<br /><br />I had heard that the government was attempting to make all restaurants post the information eventually. I'll be glad if/when that does happen. <br /><br />I will say that we ate at The Chop House one night. They did have their nutritional info posted; however, the 2 items that I had ordered were not listed. I sent an email, & got a very personal response back from one of the chefs. As it turns out, the 2 items I ordered were new, & therefore the info was not available yet. Even though, he didn't have the nutritional info for the total completed items, as with others on their menu, he went above & beyond, & gave me the ingredients for both things, so I could figure the points that way if I wanted. Needless to say, I felt his customer service was outstanding, & it makes me want to frequent the restaurant when I'm able to do so financially. <br /><br />I had a similar experience with Subway, on an item that was not on the menu because it was a limited time item; so, there are some restaurants out there, that are willing to work with their consumers, & for that I am grateful.Cindy LuHuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13718388596397485652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4351660192828325284.post-84712143622579525572009-09-28T11:34:26.739-07:002009-09-28T11:34:26.739-07:00I work at a Cheddars in Kentucky and everything is...I work at a Cheddars in Kentucky and everything is made from scratch in the morning.
