Why these items climb so high
The highest-calorie item is Cobb Salad at 830 kcal, 42% of the 2,000-calorie daily diet nutrition labels are based on. The big numbers come from portion size, frying and breading, cheese and creamy sauces, and in drinks from sugar, whole milk and whipped cream.
Putting the numbers in context
A 2,000 kcal day split over three meals is about 650 kcal each. If you order something from this list, you can share it, skip the side or the sweet drink, or eat lighter for the rest of the day.
