Ten foods you should NEVER eat!

Posted on Jan 18th 2007 1:30PM by Adams Briscoe
Okay, so "never" is pretty strong language, but the mentality here is that these select foods are some of the most detrimental to your healthy diet. Unfortunately, these foods are also very practical and it may just break your heart to learn that Pepperidge Farm's roasted chicken pot pie packs over 1,000 calories and 31 grams of fat. Even if you consumed the daily allowance for saturated fat, you'd be eating more than a day's worth in this single meal!

So what else was on the list? Well, the The Cheesecake Factory's 6 Carb Cheesecake throws up a red flag. Six carbs may not sound bad, but at 29 grams of fat and over 600 calories, it's more like eating a prime rib for dessert. Also on the list is Campbell's Chunky, Select, and other condensed soups. What could be so bad about them? Well, it isn't in the caloric intake, but rather the sodium content. A single can averages an individual's daily allotment for salt.

There are healthier alternatives to most of the foods talked about here. For instance, you can pick up Campbell's Healthy Request featuring much less sodium just as easy as the other kind. And don't worry: eating these foods won't kill you. It wouldn't hurt to nibble on a Mrs. Fields Milk Chocolate & Walnuts cookie if it was in moderation, just like anything else.
