How Sweetgreen is redefining healthy fast food

A salad chain dreamed up by three college students is shaking up the restaurant business. Sweetgreen is now open in 30 locations, from Washington, D.C., to Boston to California. Just last week, the company announced a much bigger bowl of green: nearly $100 million in total venture funding. Julianna Goldman reports on why major investors are digging in.

I love eating salads. They taste great, healthier, and can feel good about myself. HOWEVER, why is eating healthy ALWAYS more expensive? This is the reason why I and millions of other people reluctantly choose fast food burgers.

If I don't get the chance to meal prep, Sweetgreen is my go to. Worth the price and you can customize your bowl to meet your calories and your macros. And my favorite bowls/plates without having to customize anything are as follows:
1. Harvest Bowl
2. Hot Honey Chicken Bowl
3. Miso Glazed Salmon Bowl/Plate
