Let Them Eat Low Calorie Cheesecake



The summer has always been a good time for fun outdoor activities and an over indulgence in dairy products like ice cream (we know you scream for it) and cheesecake. If you're watching your calories, you're in luck!

The Cheesecake Factory has expanded their menu with new “SkinnyLicious” options, a menu for health conscious. The restaurant has become famous for their expansive menu, but now restaurant goers will have some healthier options to choose from.

The new “SkinnyLicious” menu will offer nearly 50 lower calorie items with a variety of new and signature favorites. The lower calorie options will be featured on a
stand-alone menu alongside of the regular menu. So don't worry about having to do a scavenger hunt for the information.


Also, the Small Plates & Appetizers and fresh-baked Flatbreads categories feature dishes all under 490 calories, while the entrée Salads and main courses are all served with 590 calories or less. Also featured are five Skinny Cocktails each with 150 calories or less. Knowing your calorie consumption is the first step toward battling the bulge (getting into those favorite jeans of yours) and being overall heart healthy.

Check out their entire menu by using the link below. Kudos to the Cheesecake Factory for making steps toward a healthier USA. More than 46% of the average household's food budget is spent on dining out so having low calorie information available makes it easier to make better choices. Who knows...maybe they will post all their calorie information on their menus.
