OBJECTIVE
To assess the nutritional value of meals at full-service national restaurant chains with outlets in the Philadelphia region in 2011.
METHODS
Chains were eligible if nutritional information for all menu items was on company Web pages or printed menus at Philadelphia outlets. Nutrient profiles were analyzed for 2,615 items from 21 eligible chains (out of 29) and compared with United States Department of Agriculture guidelines.
RESULTS
Adult meals (entree, side dish, and one-half appetizer) approximated 1,495 kcal, 28 g saturated fat, 3,512 mg sodium, and 11 g fiber; and rose to 2,020 kcal after including a beverage and one-half dessert. Better calorie and fat profiles were observed for entrees tagged "healthy choice" or aimed at seniors or children; however, sodium far exceeded recommended limits.
CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS
Foods served at full-service restaurant chains are high in calories, saturated fat, and sodium. Standard definitions are needed for "healthy choice" tags and for entrees targeted to vulnerable age groups.
目的
评估 2011 年在费城地区设有门店的全服务全国连锁餐厅的餐食营养价值。
方法
如果连锁餐厅的所有菜单项目的营养信息都在公司网页或费城门店的印刷菜单上，那么该餐厅就有资格入选。从 21 家符合条件的连锁餐厅（共 29 家）中分析了 2615 种菜品的营养成分，并与美国农业部的指导方针进行了比较。
结果
成人餐（主菜、配菜和半份开胃菜）的热量约为 1495 千卡，饱和脂肪 28 克，钠 3512 毫克，纤维 11 克；包括一份饮料和半份甜点后，热量上升到 2020 千卡。标有“健康之选”或针对老年人或儿童的主菜热量和脂肪含量较好；然而，钠含量远远超过了建议的限量。
结论和意义
全服务连锁餐厅供应的食物热量高、饱和脂肪和钠含量高。“健康之选”标签和针对弱势群体的主菜需要有标准的定义。
