Eat This, Not That! The Best (& Worst) Foods in America (Business Wire)

The guys behind EAT THIS, NOT THAT! are adding another best selling series.  EAT THIS, NOT THAT! THE BEST (&WORST!) FOODS IN AMERICA! is the latest installment.   The book series provides practical information for every day people on how to make simple choices to reduce your weight and manage a healthy lifestyle.

Here are a few shocking facts you can find inside:

• Pouring a bowl of good-for-you-sounding cereal like Quaker 100% Natural Granola Oats, Honey & Raisins can pack more sugar than a bowl of Cocoa Pebbles—and as many calories as eight fried chicken wings.
• A “smart” lunch at Blimpie, like the Veggie Supreme sandwich, can pack more than 1,100 calories—more than two Big Macs!
• A certain chicken salad from California Pizza Kitchen has more calories than 10 Krispy Kreme doughnuts. (You’ll need this book to figure out which one!)
• Romano’s Macaroni Grill Dessert Ravioli has as many calories—1,630—as four Quarter Pounders and more than a half a day’s allotment of sodium!

In addition to similar facts like in the other 3 books, the 4th installment includes:

• The 20 Worst Foods in America: A 2,300 calorie “individual” pizza? A shake with more sugar than 53 Oreo cookies? Welcome any one of these nutritional neutron bombs into your diet just once a month and you could add nearly 7 pounds of flab in a year.
• The Ultimate Menu Decoder: Restaurant language is littered with ambiguities, embellishments and euphemisms. Learn how to decode the jargon and save time, money and calories.
• The Restaurant Report Card: We put 65 major chain restaurants under the nutritional microscope to separate the commendable from the deplorable. Find out if your favorite makes the grade.
• The Best & Worst Salads, Burgers, Pizza, Sushi and more: Discover the shocking winners and belly-bloating losers in all of your favorite food categories.
• The Best & Worst foods for Any Symptom: Food is your first—and best—line of defense against many of life’s ills. Discover what foods help decrease stress, boost your libido, lower blood pressure and cholesterol, improve your mood and many more.

The book is available in hardcover for $24.95 at all major book stores.
