Some New Offenders

Here are some of the yummy things they have been advertising lately on TV.

Wendys  Asiago Ranch Chicken Club weighs in at 690 calories with a whopping 36 grams of fat - 12 of which is saturated fat and an insane 1630 milligrams of sodium. That's not nourishment - it's punishment!

Weighing in at 440 calories with 16 grams of fat - 6 saturated- and 1370 milligrams of sodium is Subway's Flat Bread Steak and Bacon Melt. Again, punishment.

Taco Bell has been hitting the airways with their Triple Steak Stack which has 690 calories with 30 grams of fat - 13 saturated - and a heart stopping 1950 milligrams of sodium. And people wonder why I call this stuff poison.

KFC has their Mashed Potato Bowl that has 680 calories, 31 grams of fat - 8 saturated - and WAIT FOR IT 2130 milligrams of sodium! How is that even palatable with that much salt?

Luckily we can go get breakfast all day at Jack In The Box. For instance the Jumbo Breakfast Platter With Bacon has 657 calories with 37 grams of fat - 7 saturated- and 1300 milligrams of sodium. How do they do it with that little salt?

I think I'll settle on McDonalds Big Breakfast with Hotcakes and the regular sized biscuit which weighs in at 1090 calories with 56 grams of fat 56! - 19 grams of saturated fat - and 2150 milligrams of sodium.

OK. Let's try BK's Tendergrill Chicken Sandwich Meal - Small - with 1000 calories 33 grams of fat - 9.5 grams of saturated fat - and 1580 milligrams of sodium.

Maybe we'll just stay in and cook something.

You see all the sodium they add to this stuff. That is how you can make over processed - dead - food have some flavor.

More soon....
