As the first organic fast-food restaurant, O’Natural’s has a pretty simple concept: Provide people with food that’s 100% food. With four locations (two in Massachusetts and two in Maine) the business is growing quite quickly and one quick look at the menu explains why. It’s comprised of Flatbread Sandwiches, salads, soups, Asian noodles and assorted breakfast items as well. Pizza is served after 4pm and a kid’s menu is also available. Clearly, the Flatbread Sandwiches are a favorite on the menu as the selection is quite distinct. Anything from a Chicken TMB (free roaming chicken breast meat with balsamic vinaigrette, tomatoes mozzarella and basil) to a Wild West (wild prairie raised bison meatloaf, roasted red peppers, cheddar and mustard) to a Mediterranean (organic hummus, lettuce, red onion, roasted red peppers and Swiss) can be found here. The café is designed to be a quick stop for people in a hurry, but the leather couches and pleasant atmosphere might make you want to stay. The people behind this great idea are Gary Hirshberg, President and CEO of the successful Stonyfield Farm, Pam Solo, President of the Institute for Civil Society (ICS) and Mac McCabe, Consultant to ICS. Here’s food for thought - they are now offering franchising options (hmm…). Via ::WRAL.com ::O’Naturals

    Make it cheaper.

    I just spent close to $30 between me and my gf last night after reading this article. A big problem with obesity in this country isn't just how fast the food is made but also the fact that there is a $1 menu. I would love to see O'Naturals attracting in to their stores BK and McD's customers, not the usually green minded yuppies (like me)

    Hi, loved your food, but looking for some answers. I ate the chicken TMB and had a blood sugar crash. I'd like to come back but need to know how much sugar is in that tsandwich.
