With the exception of dinner out with the family once a week at a Chinese/American buffet, I rarely eat out. Dining out doesn't have to be difficult though. I have memorized a lot of the carb counts per serving, but if I'm not sure, and there is no nutritional info available, I just don't eat it. If nothing on the menu will work for me, a salad with vinegar and oil is usually safe. If I must have a hamburger, and once in a great while it is nice to indulge, I make them at home so that I know exactly what it consists of.
Unfortunately, most fast food places and family restaurants are not diabetes friendly. Their eye in on their bottom line, not on the health of their customers. I haven't eaten at Wendy's since the 70's except for their mandarin chicken salad a couple of years ago. It is nice to know that they do have some other salads that are somewhat healthy.
