Mmmm....Ginger Beef

Delicious, huh?

You bet. Until you check out the fine print on the back.

Luckily you can't read this. Because if you did, you'd see this little box of death has 80 grams of fat. 80! Including 16 saturated and another 16 trans. That's enough to stop a horse's heart.

I was waiting for a prescription to be filled so I had time to check out the prepared foods section of the grocery store.

When I told the pharmacist what I saw, she said, "Do not buy anything over there. Ever." And I believe her.

Oh yeah, and a 100% of your daily recommended max amount of sodium. At least you can check that off your to do list after dinner.
