Warning! 6 Calorie-Bomb Salads

Don't let the lettuce fool you: These salads pack half a day's worth of calories and a shocking amount of fat...


I'm always leery of ordering salads at restaurants, but this run-down of the worst salads in America made me want to hide under a menu. How can something made with seared scallops and leafy greens go so horribly wrong? Check out this list before your next lunchtime order:


1. Chili's Caesar Salad with Grilled Chicken and Caesar Dressing: 930 calories, 71 g fat (13 g saturated),1,840 mg sodium


2. Chili's Boneless Buffalo Chicken Salad: 1,070 calories, 78 g fat (15 g saturated), 4,440 mg sodium


3. Quiznos Chicken with Honey Mustard Flatbread Salad 1,110 calories, 74 g fat, (14.5 g saturated) 2030 mg sodium


4. Macaroni Grill Seared Sea Scallops Salad: 1,320 calories, 91 g fat (25 g saturated), 2,860 mg sodium


5. T.G.I. Friday's Pecan Crusted Chicken Salad: 1,360 calories, Fat: Unknown (The company won't disclose this number.)


6. Chevy's Fresh Mex Tostada Salad with Chicken: 1,551 calories, 94 g fat (37 g saturated) 2,840 mg sodium


Did any of these picks surprise you? Is your favorite salad on the list? What do you like in your salad?
