? @ Salad nutrition....

  • How bad is this compared to eating a frozen dinner? let me know what you ladies think - I know the sodium is a little high, but I was thinking some of the frozen dinners are about that high??? This includes reduced sugar dressing and all - even the fried noodles (which I wouldn't eat - of course)

    I was thinking PVVSFa??? - or should I just STAY AWAY???
  • I second that...REALLY HIGH sodium, Id stay away...
  • I'd stay away...the fat is also really high and the high fructose corn syrup is usally a no-no to me.
  • WOW- I hadnt noticed the fat...thats REALLY not a good choice...sorry!
  • Thanks chickies - I guess I will forget about that one then - it seems so healthy till you look at the nutrition......

    Mary - it is a salad from Panera Bread!!!
  • If it's a place where they make it could they mortify it like know salt added to the chicken. Or is it a prepackaged salad? Sounds good, but I agree why to high in the things we shouldn't have.
  • OMG I used to have that quite often at Panera! No no no more... Heather -where did you find the nutrition info BTW?
