Pizzeria Uno - 'worst pizza' healthwise

[ProdigalHorn]

Under the "what's your point" heading:

1. WORST PIZZA IN AMERICA
Uno Chicago Grill Chicago Classic Deep Dish Individual Pizza
2,310 calories
165 g fat (54 g saturated)
4,920 mg sodium
120 g carbs

This individual pizza has been named Worst Pizza in America three years in a row now, but Uno Chicago Grill doesn't seem to care--all they've done to minimize the epic impact of this monstrous meal is to change the nutrition labels on their website to reflect the calories "per serving," instead of the total calories per dish as a whole. What's revealing about that slight of hand is that it shows that Uno knowingly sells an individual pizza that actually has three servings' worth of calories, fat, sodium, and carbs. This one individual pizza has more calories than you should eat in a day and more than two days' worth of sodium. (That's as much salt as you'll find in 27 small bags of Frito Lays Potato Chips!) The only way to go at Uno is to steer away from the infamous deep dish Chicago-style pizzas and opt for a flatbread pie instead.

Personally that sounds like a winner to me.

Oh wow!. No wonder I love it so much! I've got a good excuse. It takes a lot of calories to maintain my body mass.

Dear God in Heaven, I want to roll around in it!

Pizzeria Uno was actually founded by a former UT football player who is credited with creating the first Chicago deep dish style pizza. Great food, could care less what it does to my body, its worth it.

Dieting is useless. Eat good food and move yourself.

Love this pie!

I was eating with a group of friends at Uno's in Dallas after the RRR game one Sunday, and one of the girls in the group took each slice of her pizza, and covered it in ranch. She went through an entire bowl of that ****, along with pizza. Can't imagine how much fat that was.
