I got one on a work trip and it was actually pretty good as far as freshness goes, but it was so loaded with protein (chicken, nuts, cheese) that I was only able to eat maybe 1/3-1/4 of it. With that amount of protein it was big enough to serve my family as a meal. I'm not dainty about food, either, when a salad is almost all vegetables I can eat a BIG salad!
