Yeah, the take out thing isn't always healthier. Before I had my gallbladder removed, salad with grilled chicken was the only thing that didn't cause an attack, so that's what I ate for awhile and actually lost weight. Since then, I've had the gallbladder out and I'm back to "normal" food. On those nights that nobody can agree on what they want, any of the little places right in our town are great. If the food doesn't make me sick, I know that they are using better ingredients and cooking techniques than major chains. Weird stomach that way. 3 - 5 bucks for a meal with salad and bread isn't too bad plus it keeps me out of the Walmart (that's the cheapest place to get groceries around here) where I will inevitably spend anywhere from 10 to 100 bucks more than I needed.
