since the report on cnn about the 43 chain resturants with the healthiest menus, i have tried to purchase that month of health magazine with the article.
after talking with health’s customer service on april 30th, i was told to order the march 2008 edition with the article.
today – may 24th – the march magazine arrived and you guessed it, no article!
can ANYONE diect me to the correct month of health where the chain resturants were listed?
much thanks
Hi Don,

Like everyone else, I am unable to access the restaurants. They promise you one thing and give you another. Like most promises like these, you have to buy something to get the information.
were is the list of restaurants
I would like to get the listing of the healthest restaurants in my neighborhood. My zip code is 11211
I wanted to know of the top restaurants in my neighborhood my zip code is 11211
Where is the list of restaurants? Just telling you there are restaurants isn’t going to do it.

You people are useless. Do some nutritional research and check your facts. I’m curious to know how much America’s UN-healthiest restaurants are paying you for an article like this. Read the following from someone who actually understands nutrition.

Where is the list posted?
I would love a list of the restaurants.
where is the list of restaurants that you are talking about????
Fire the person who design this web-sites and hire an RF engineer, he will make thing much more clear and organized

what a waist of my time, where is the list? this seriously must be a joke! msn has the most stupid articles they are always either wrong, incomplete, or bias
OBVIOUSLY, dollar signs are on the menu for these EXPERTS. If one researces on ones own, one will find that the picks are way off base as to being HEALTHY.
Common sense prevails once again. DON’T LET THE “EXPERTS” DO YOUR THINKING FOR YOU.
None of these places are healthy or safe! They are full of salt and sugar…sad for people who are diabetic and don’t know this! Not to mention the virusus that lurks around the food. The safiest place is your home!
Since when is white rice healthy?
I’d like to see both lists so that I can compare and verify. Is that possible? Thanks gary
It’s too bad that people have an opinion about nutrition, but do not have a command of the English language. Restaurants do not have “health”. A restaurant is healthful, not healthy.
How in the hell did you come up with the fast food places for your America’s Healthiest Restaurants story? I love Chipotle, but apparently the people picking restaurants never even looked at the nutritional information. A barbacoa burrito with cheese has 31 grams of fat (48% daily value), 10 grams saturated fat (50%), and an AMAZING 2481 mg sodium (103%)! PLEASE, do your readers a favor: if you’re going to provide a list of healthy fast food places, do some homework and make the list legitimate!
Article sucks…. and that says boatloads about your experts….
Please post the names of the healthiest restaurants in my area. (Metairie, Mandeville, Madisonville, Covington………..Louisiana)
gracias paco and sergio for you wise words of knowledge. me cannot wait too sneak into america. me wis thinking abowt heading too san diego too hit de beachez. me cannot wait cousins. and again, let me say us motto. for mexico! ariba!!
Is this some sick joke where the list didnot find one.
I HAVE JUST BEEN PUT ON A LOW FAT DIET NOT BECAUSE OF WEIGHT BUT MEDICAL REASONS. IF ANYONE KNOWS THE FULL EXPLAINATION OF LOW FAT AND WHAT I CAN AND SHOULDN’T EAT PLEASE LET ME KNOW
THANK YOU
