"It is possible to eat healthier at each chain. You can ... order from the “Skinnys” menu at Potbelly, which has sandwiches with fewer than 400 calories."
Or you could skip the chips, cookie or drink, or order the regular size (not the big size). Or have a different sandwich from the Italian, which has the highest calorie content of all the sandwiches on the menu. It's not rocket science.
Honestly I expect a little better than such a blatant false dichotomy from the article.
