1. They should call it "Thirsty Man" with that much salt.

3. Hee hee! That's funny!
And probably true. Or just give up and admit it -- "Dead Man Meals".

Just kidding. Salt won't kill ya. ;)

2. Whyever did you buy that thing?
Those are horrid. I hope you have some red wine. Check out the fat & cholesterol content.

8. Don't forget to salt it.
That's barely enough iodine to protect you from goiter, let alone flavor your food.

11. "Lonely Man" dinners...
5 grams of salt....and if you figure out the math at the top of the chart, that "Over a POUND of FOOD!" delight is actually enough to feed 4 people...
Which reminds me...Was that 5 grams of salt in the whole thing, or PER SERVING???

You may have been getting 15,000 mgs of lot's wife there!

And they DO taste like shit.

I had Michael Angelo's eggplant parmasan for lunch.

560 calories, 38 grams of fat (oh, well, less than 2 do-nuts!) and 660 gms of salt. Only 46 gms of those evil carbs, too! (I'm a cyclist. Carbs are FUEL!)

15. one and a half pound salt?
Wow, considering that the lethal dosis is about 200g or 1/2 pound.

:evilgrin: Sorry, couldn't resist

16. As long as they get paid, they don't care...
Ever notice how some Teeee-Veee dinnahs have an ounce in 'em and they STILL taste bland.

13. how many calories and fat grams
I looked at one which had over 1,000 calories and I can't remember how many fat grams!! It was astonishing. They should rename it Hungry Man's Last Meal.
