Default More "Are you KIDDING me?" food

A friend sent me this link today: The Breakfast From ****.

The review of the breakfast is pretty funny (though a bit swear-y). I hope the guy really didn't attempt to eat it!

Ew. Double Ew.

Seriously, I was unaware that simply looking at a picture of food could make me feel disgustingly full. Imagine what would happen if I ate it.

Again, I would have ate that, before. I LOVED t.v. dinner breakfasts (or just t.v. breakfasts?) But I would have REFUSED to look at the label. I can't believe when I look at something, and its D.V. is over 100% (for the bad stuff) and the cholesterol is over 200%!!! I've never seen that.

WOW! I agree with Miss Michelle. I cannot believe they are allowed to sell that stuff. It's appalling!

I was laughing so hard reading that. I think my husband thought I had lost it. I can not even believe that they can sell these things. But then again the people who are probably buying this stuff are not habitual label readers.

I am soooo going to the grocery store to check this (and the other varieties) out for myself! And to think...I would have totally eaten this several years ago without thinking twice. Makes the tummy hurt just pondering it.

I've done that. And I very quietly put it right back into the freezer.

The eggs, oh how can they even call those eggs? For that many calories, you could have about half a days worth of food that would be soo much better for you and less sodium, cholestoral and pretty much everything else.

Woe is america, eating that food is going to kill you like any other poison or drug. It might be slower, but how can things like that actualy be allowed to stay on the market. Even if you were to work off all the calories, like the "hungry men" who eat the food should be doing, theres no way your body needs that much cholestoral and sodium.
