Worst Points Foods
We are always emphasizing about what's good on points around here. So for
fun the other day when we were shopping, we decided to look at labels and see if we could find the worst food possible. Well, we found a surprising number of things. Some more common items than people might realize. Particularly for kids, which kind of helped me understand why so many kids are overweight today. So in the interest of better understanding what is really bad for us, I want people to share the worst point foods they find. Here's mine: The Swanson "All Day Breakfast". Contains eggs, bacon, sausage, pancakes and homefries. No wonder they call it "all day". I wouldn't feel like eating anything else. It has a big banner on it that says "contains over 1lb of food!" 1030 calories 64g of fat (really) 690mg cholesterol 78g carbs I can feel my arteries hardening just writing this. I would tell you how many points, but my point counter doesn't actually go high enough. Probably a sign that you shouldn't even consider eating it. Actually, I kind of pictured the point counter running and cowering away from the box. Incidentally, while I was writing this, I found a somewhat humorous although crude review of it he http://www.x-entertainment.com/articles/0744/ I saw a Swanson ad on TV the other day for a frozen dinner that they emphasize it contains "A pound and a half of food". Could it be any worse? So, next time you are at the grocery store, have a look around and see if you can find anything worse than the All Day Breakfast and post about it. Brian |

Hey, you forgot to mention that it has fibre :-) !!
I ran it through my point counter and it comes out at 25 points! I always tease my DH about the two sandwiches he tends to want each time he goes to Subway. Although he doesn't go there much anymore. Maybe this is why.... 6" Meatball Sub calories: 612 fat grams: 24 fib 4 6" Tuna Sub calories: 527 fat grams: 31 fib 4 And he usually has to have a 12" sub, so double all those numbers!! 12" Meatball Sub: 28 points 12" Tuna Sub: 25 points I can't stand to eat all that fat and usually have a 6" chicken breast or vegie without cheese. Comes in at somewhere between 3.1 and 5.3 grams of fat and about 250 - 300 calories. Drives my husband nuts...He hates vegies. -- Brenda 209/197/150 "Brian" reply2me@thenewsgroup wrote in message ...

Idk if any of you like juice but yesterday I was grocery shopping and was craving some good juice. I got some welches juice that is lite..its called mountain berry and its sooo good. About 1 pt for 8 oz and it also contains calcium..idk how juice can but it does! |
