Nutritional Text Messages Check out Restaurants

Nutrition on the Go is a free text message service that lets you get nutritional information like calories, fat and protein on your favorite restaurant foods.

"We have 1,700 restaurants in the database right now and we're going for the top restaurant chains to start with," Meredith Oliver of diet.com said.

Here's how it works: You punch in a special number, then enter the restaurant name and specific food item, and in an instant a text message appears with the nutritional information.
