...starving on the way home and hit LJS for a shrimp and more combo. The last time I ordered it, I got a handful of shrimp, 2 pieces of fish, a couple hush puppies, fries, slaw.

This time, I got...Shrimp and fries...wtf. I am so ready to "outsource" fast food and their poor service (my stomach talking) .

They show what looks like a Fish and More meal, that's two pieces of fish, fries, cole slaw, and hush puppies.

You might have gotten a Variety platter before.

I did check out the site before posting, but the picture is a bit ambiguous....could be the Chicken and more we see there...by design. I think they keep that information "close-hold," so they can fok me over.

Holy crap, I was just playing around with the nutrition calculator on their website.

Granted, I don't go to LJS that often (been about two years), but it's not uncommon for me to get a variety platter and eat most of it. I configured a variety platter on the website, here's the breakdown.

1240 calories, 70 grams of fat (20 of which is trans), 3570mg of Sodium (1.5x daily value),

Somehow, the meal includes 25% of the daily value of Vitamin C. I thought maybe from the cole slaw, but I configured it without the cole slaw.

We just got an LJS about a mile from my house. When I go, I get 2 chicken planks and some hush puppies. Not too bad.

I'm pretty sure that's a Fish and More meal, just by the shape of the fish on the plate. When I was playing around with the nutrition calculator, it shows what each item looks like. The fish planks were diamond shaped, the chicken is more oblong.

Edit: if it seems a little weird that I'm spending so much time on this, keep in mind I'm trying to fix something on my website and it's requiring the uploading of large files, so I need something to occupy my time while they upload :D :p

You are the man! I did smile when I read the results of your research and product identification prowess. :)
