Frankenfoods Thread page

I think its time for a dedicated thread for all those frankenfoodsthat make you curse out loud in the middle of the supermarket.

To start, I found this beauty last night.

I know! Lucky for us. I think it was also cholesterol and fun free too, I just couldnt capture all the writing.

And of course it's PASTEURISED!

One section of the frozen food aisle at WFoods, but especially anything called a veggie burger. Mind you, I have nothing against veggie patties, and I've tasted some home-made ones that were yummie. But just like not all drinks served in a martini glass should end in "ini," burgers have beef as their major component. Anything else is a patty.

Tofu "meats." Pepperoni (gag), tofurkey, tofu hot dogs. Definitely high on the barf-meter.

Lean Cuisine, WW Smart Ones, etc. Even before primal, I'd look at those and think I could make a meal with just as few calories and by skipping the pasta and rice invariably included, get a lot more protein for my caloric buck.

Fruit juices. The grocery store variety. Again, even before primal, I knew that the added sugar had taken a perfectly healthy snack, like an orange, and turned it into a sugary mess.

Grapples and apples that taste like bubble gum.

How about Bac'n bits which contain:

TEXTURED SOY FLOUR, CANOLA OIL, SALT, CARAMEL COLOR, MALTODEXTRIN, NATURAL AND ARTIFICIAL FLAVOR, LACTIC ACID, YEAST EXTRACT, DISODIUM INOSINATE AND DISODIUM GUANYLATE (FLAVOR ENHANCERS), AND FD&C RED 40

Bacn Pieces™ Bacon Flavored Bits

Bacon flavored soy????? Blasphemy!!!!

[Knifegill]

Don't worry, they never taste like bacon. They taste like oily salt.

I am adding various yogurts to the frankenfood category. Reading ingredients is scary.

Cheetos

Skim Plus milk. Gag.
