Can somebody tell me what this means [doing a project , creating a fast food menu]?

March 9, 2010 - 9:38 am 2 Comments

Right. I’m supposed to create a fast food restaurant menu that includes healthy, tasty food. It says "You should include a brief statement about what each menu item includes" [this has to be done by Monday] does it mean the ingredients or number of calories and fat or what?

For example

Turkey Burger………3.15

Natural organic turkey, Mixed with a variety of vegetable, on a wheat bun.

I guess you could add the calories and/or fat. But when im ordering at a fast food resteraunt the last thing on my mind is what has the lowest ammount of calories, Maybe you can add some sort of sign for a meal that is over 250 calories. or something like that.

what is your reaction about "chinese restaurant syndrome"..? how does it affect those chinese people out there

What is ‘Chinese Restaurant Syndrome’ and what causes it?

This answer is brought to you by many of the Australian nutrition professionals who regularly contribute to a nutrition email discussion group.

Chinese Restaurant Syndrome is a combination of symptoms that include feelings of burning, flushing, tingling and tightness – symptoms that some people experience after eating a meal from a Chinese restaurant.

For at least thirty years the claim has commonly been made that monosodium glutamate (MSG) is the cause of Chinese Restaurant Syndrome. Although a claim that is commonly made may indicate an association or (possibly) even cause and effect, such a claim must be supported by appropriate studies before it can be considered to be scientifically valid. Many studies have been conducted to test the claim about MSG and Chinese Restaurant Syndrome. Some (but by no means all) studies have reported finding a relationship between MSG and the syndrome.

Evidently, in a small group of people, the concentrations of MSG added to meals served at some Chinese restaurants consistently trigger the symptoms of Chinese Restaurant Syndrome. Because this association is not consistently reproducible in all sufferers, it appears that some people who experience symptoms are responding to something other than MSG.

Another possible cause (among several) is the high salt level of many Chinese foods – excessive salt was suggested by the doctor who first described the syndrome (Dr Kwok), as a more likely cause than MSG.

Clearly, the last word on the food components that trigger the symptoms of Chinese Restaurant Syndrome has not been spoken (or written). More carefully-designed studies are needed before all of the causes of this syndrome are identified, but it does appear that MSG is one cause, at least for some people.

As a cautionary measure, it would be prudent to avoid choosing the saltiest items on the menu in a Chinese restaurant; the waiter can tell you (or find out for you) which items are the saltiest. People who know they are intolerant to MSG can usually handle the natural MSG content of foods such as tomatoes and mushrooms, and can simply ask for a meal with no added MSG.

no one cares.

Italian with menu items like a good lasagna and fried zucchini with marina, and good salads with cheese.Looking for a sit down authentic Italian restaurant.

My preferance in the city for Italian is Biggies. It may not be truly authentic Italian, but they have a wonderful menu, and the prices are very reasonable.

What restaurants in NYC have calorie menus?

March 9, 2010 - 9:38 am 4 Comments

Four years ago I lost twenty pounds by counting calories and I have kept it off by watching my caloric intake. I live in NYC and would love to know what restaurants post the calories in their food. I know that fast food places (McDonalds, Subway, BetterBurger, Starbucks) post calorie amounts online but I was hoping someone could tell me some alternatives where I could actually dine and get service.

Any suggestions would be greatly recommended!

chain restaurants and fast food have them on their website. chili’s has calories specifically listed on the menu for their guiltless grill menu and applebees has calories on the menus for weight watchers items. yum yum!!

A typical item found in our local Mexican restaurant menus is the burrito colorado, or the chili colorado.?

Is this a traditional Mexican dish? And where would I find a good recipe?

Yes it is and i make it very often, this is th eway i make it seems more complicated than it actually is and is worth it.

1 1/2 lbs boneless beef chuck roast
8 ounces boneless pork butt
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
2 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1 small bay leaf
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups canned tomato puree
1 cup water

Cut the pork and beef into strips about 1/8 inch thick by 1/2 inch wide, trimming away excess fat.

Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat.

Add enough meat to cover the bottom of the pot.

Cook until browned, about 4 minutes.

Transfer to a bowl, and continue with another batch of raw meat until all is cooked.

Return all of the meat to the pot and add all the remaining ingredients.

Bring to a boil and and cook over medium heat for 1 1/2 hours. (or bake covered in a 400 degree oven for 1/2 hours).

Serve rolled in warmed tortillas, with sour cream and salsa.

Enjoy!!
