I wanna start a restaurant where you get a 350 to 400 calorie meal and you pay an appropriately low price for it, then since it's a sit down restaurant our waiters will be trained to wait like 20 minutes after you've finished eating before they talk to you again. Then they'll ask, "still hungry?"

Fricken capitalism, "take more, so we can charge you more!" Evil!
Restaurants like this have been opened up in the past and failed. Thats why there is no real "healthy" restaurants much more in the US. Yes, there are healthier places to eat like Seasons 52 for example or Subway but even Subway doesnt do much business to be honest.
