I have not tried the new Japanese place, but the Thai place is nice because they have entrees that they cook right in front of you. Subway is always good since what I get is just vegetables and cheese, and Chipotle is very fresh as well. Granted it helps that I don't eat meat.
Red Robin is one of those things that I get in moderation-I'll get it before a big floor move at work, if I have extra money, or for a special occasion. Many of the places on the list I've never even eaten at. Panera only has one item that I like. I would get fat if I ate at a lot of those places because when the only options open are seemingly cheese sticks and onion rings...

Subways might seem healthy, and even if Jerry or whatever his name is said he lost weight by eating just that, it's completely ridiculous. Everything at Subways seems processed, the chicken let alone the cheese doesn't even look real. Subways claims to serve supposedly "healthy" sandwiches. Sure, it's not as bad as eating at MacDonald's but think about all that the dressing that goes on your sandwich, or all the bacon they put in there. Even the bread looks like plastic.
In my opinion, nothing beats homemade food and nothing will ever beat fresh vegetables. In supermarkets, plasticky vegetables are everywhere: they,re super green in color, and they're shape is almost perfect. They're always served at weddings, usually next to the steak and the potatoes.
It's funny how some people think they're eating healthy when they're eating those. It's completely processed!
I think our society as a whole has become lazy when it comes to cooking. Everything is ready-made and microwavable. People don't even peel their vegetables anymore. You open a pack of vegetables or potatoes and toss it into the pan. Ugh, no no no no no. It's not healthy at all. They're filled with preservatives!
