Porky Pig of a Pot Pie

I brought it to work for lunch, then read the label. It said: 37 grams of fat, 990 sodium and 57 Carbs. That is outrageous!! That is probably why I don't buy premade foods. But this was the top pot pie brand! Once in a while it's nice to have something to just pop in the oven. This was the last one that my husband left for me. Unfortunately, we pay the price in calories (it had 610) and our health.
Each gram of fat is 9 calories, so half of the pie was FAT!! Salt in the pie used up 41% of my daily allowance. My tongue really felt that salt over-dose, too. I won't be buying or eating these or any others again. No wonder our nation leads the world in obesity, diabetes and high blood pressure. Fast food and premade foods are our go-to purchases. Is the food industry trying to kill us? In the not to far future, there wont be a market to sell to, because we'll all be dead. That is after the medical and pharmaceutical fields finish us off with drugs and medical care. Yikes!!
