Just read this on the 3FC mailing list. Uggg!

The NEW SWANSON HUNGRY-MAN XXL entrees

Southern Fried Boneless Chicken offering (a heavy disappointment due to its lack of corn or a dessert) has 1,010
calories, 41 grams of fat (8 saturated), 155mg cholesterol, a stunning 3,180mg sodium, and 85 grams carbohydrates.

The XXL Roasted Carved Turkey sports 970 calories, 40 grams of fat (12 saturated), 105mg cholesterol, 3,600mg
sodium and 106 grams of carbs.

The XXL Angus Beef Meatloaf has 860 calories, 48 grams of fat (20 saturated), 140mg cholesterol, 3,480mg
sodium and 70grams of carbs.

The XXL line includes double helpings of cheeseburger and meatball sandwiches. Eat just one of the two
cheeseburgers and you'll fill up on 730 calories, 43 grams of fat (17 saturated), 86mg cholesterol, 1,450mg sodium
and 56 grams of carbs. Each meatball sandwich contains 640 calories, 33 grams of fat (11 saturated), 60mg
cholesterol, 2,160mg sodium and 60 grams of carbs.

Swanson isn't alone in this quest to kill our diets. Banquet, a company that boasts "America's #1 Frozen Brand
(presumably of turkey dinners), is hawking "Double The Meat" entrees in its new Hearty One line of meals. The
turkey ("mostly white meat") choice not only provides 17 ounces of food, but also 620 calories, 32 grams of fat (8
saturated), 80mg cholesterol, 2,250mg sodium and 54 grams of carbs.

Banquet's boneless pork rib has 670 calories, 34 grams of fat (12 saturated), 105mg cholesterol, 1,790mg sodium
and 57 grams of carbs.

The Salisbury steak selection oozes 630 calories, 40 grams of fat (15 saturated), 65mg cholesterol, 2,300mg sodium
and 44 grams of carbs.

The Hearty Ones are a banquet in a box.
