Claim Jumper: The World's Unhealthiest Chain Restaurant.............................

It's a given that restaurant meals are high in calories, but Claim Jumper — the national Gold Rush-themed restaurant chain with 46 locations in eight states in the western U.S. — may very well be be the biggest transgressor when it comes to calorie overload. After much demand, the chain has finally released the nutritional information for the notoriously large, gravy-laden dishes it serves. Apparently, the reason anyone goes there is for the "value" and the ridiculous portions: doggy bags are expected. But the raw numbers are completely mind-boggling. Here's a look at the nutritional info of some of their signature dishes:
· Beef Back Ribs: 4,301 calories, 156 grams of saturated fat, and 7,623 mg of sodium. · Black Tie Chicken Pasta: 3,773 calories, 134 grams of fat, and 4,638 mg of sodium. · Citrus Chicken Salad (Charbroiled): 2,520 calories, 33 grams of saturated fat, and 1,776 mg of sodium. the complete article can be found @ ; http://www.eater.com/2010/4/20/6736805/claim-jumper-the-worlds-unhealthiest-chain-restaurant

    Claim jumpers isn’t the rest. it used to be. i grew up in Cypress Ca. and went to the original rest. it’s a shame what Landrys has done to the place. the service staff is treated like crap and the managers are rude and insulting,it’s a shame. I know i’ve been in the bizz for a long long time. It’s a turn and burn don’t expect good service or help from anhybody it’s a shame
