I've spent a lot of time this past week searching the web for nutritional information on foods that are not already in SparkPeople's database - especially restaurant meals. Along the way I found CalorieLab, which has the most comprehensive list of chain restaurants I've seen so far. They also have the Nondiscloser Hall of Shame, which is a list of restaurants which give lame excuses and/or refuse to release their menus' nutrition data. Among them are:

On the upside, the following restaurants which we frequent do provide nutrition facts for at least some of their menu items:
I applaud these restaurants for giving their customers knowledge and control over what we put into our bodies.
I sure would like to see the FDA require all of these places to disclose their nutritional information, just as they require the label on packaged foods.
