This right here. Salad IS NOT HEALTHY in most places. Ordering salad is probably worse than ordering the steak and potatoes. I get salad as a side because I like greens and get dressing on the side (I like balsamic) and share it with the partner. The only "salad" I get for myself is tomato mozarella with toast, which isn't really a salad, but it's awesome.  1/2 a head of lettuce slathered in ranch, bacon, and cheese, topped with an egg is NOT healthy and has more calories than a big mac. To smother the salad they use between 1/3 and 1/2 cup ranch to cover everything, so 500 calories right there. Add a few hundred for bacon cheese and egg and you get close to a 1k cal "healthy" salad. Fuck that. I'll take a steak any day.
