I was in a mall at lunchtime today, and after scouting around the food
court, the chargrilled chicken garden salad from Chick-Fil-A looked like
the best choice. Along with the useless bag of croutons, they included a
packet of sunflower seed kernels too. I was pleased with that (I love
sunflower seeds in salads; I always add them to salads I make at home).
Just as I was about to open the packet and pour them on, I glanced at the
ingredients -- after "sunflower kernels", the next five were sugars and
starches! (sugar, corn syrup, honey, wheat starch, high fructose corn
syrup). I looked more closely at the front label, and it turned out that
they were honey-roasted sunflower seeds. I hadn't even noticed that at
first.
Out they went with the croutons.

Well that was a mean *ss thing for them to do! Sunflower seeds on salad or
slivered seasoned almonds make such a great substitute for croutons..
