Lunchables nutrition data…
The Lunchables web site…
a) is done all in slow to load Flash
b) appears to contain no actual nutrition information
Bleah.
But I pulled this off the boxes the kids ate on Monday (bought by the other parent):
Lynnaea’s “Pizza” (make it yourself, about half the contents were still in the box when she threw it away):

No fruits or vegetables, just cheese, tomato paste, and bread as far as I could tell. Can you say, training the tastebuds for the fast food nation?

Is this disgusting or what? Oscar Mayer ought to be ashamed of itself… no wonder so many kids are obese. Even our kids, aside from their lack of appetite, want nothing but starch and sugar. Bleah - the brains and bodies of America’s youth are being rotted from the inside out.
