740.0. "Wendy's salads" by PCOJCT::LOCOVARE () Wed May 06 1992 01:39

    Does anyone know how Wendy's cook their grilled chicken?
    Is it really plain? Also I have bought their grilled
    chicken salad which contains 2 oz of chicken (good for
    WW portion) but their low-cal salad dressing does
    not list calories so I'm afraid to use it. Does
    anyone know the calorie count? If not can I buy
    packets of lo-cal dressing someplace?

740.1See your local supermarket!CSC32::KINSELLAit's just a wheen o' blethersWed May 06 1992 02:047
    
    W.W. has packets of low-cal dressing that are sold in the supermarkets.
    They come in boxes of ??, say 20-30 packets.  They are optional calories
    only...6 for Caesar and 35 for Creamy Ranch.  They are very good.  
    The portions are good size too.

    Do they need to be refrigerated?
    
740.3RANGER::PESENTIOnly messages can be draggedWed May 06 1992 22:194
They come in boxes of 12.  They do not need refrigeration.  I keep a box of 
the Caesar in my desk all the time.  They taste great, to me.  They are oil 
free.  I also buy the bottled version and use it as a marinade for chicken and
fish.

    Are those the only flavors? I love french.
    
740.5Try new brands!!CSC32::KINSELLAit's just a wheen o' blethersFri May 08 1992 01:218
    
    I think they have French in a bottle, but I'm not positive.  If not,
    you might want to see if they have it in the new Healthy Sensation
    line or the Kraft Free.  Optional calories are optional calories
    no matter who's brand you're looking at.  I believe WW also has
    a Peppercorn dressing in a bottle.

740.6try WW Caeser - my favoriteTLE::TLE::D_CARROLLa woman full of fireMon May 11 1992 22:5717
    WW makes Italian, Ranch, and Caeser in packets, and in addition
    Peppercorn, Tomato Vinegrette, Creamy Cucumber and some other flavors
    in bottles.
    
    Another brand that makes packets is Estee. I don't know what flavors
    they have in packets (I have creamy garlic here in my desk) but they
    make french, blue cheese (which is disgusting, esp. if you are a blue
    cheese fan like myself), thousand island and many other flavors.
    
    Another things is that there are many, many brands of lo-cal dressing
    that isn't fat-free.  Most of them are 20-30 ca for a 2 Tbs serving. 
    If using a restaraunt's lo-call dressing, you could assume that figure,
    and be pretty safe.  Even if you aren't right, you know, you aren't
    going to kill you diet by having 30 more calories than you intended
    anyway...
