Priceless!!!! “The fact that the recommended limits are so low is justified by officials on the grounds that people will always exceed recommendations.” Make you wonder where else the government is lying because they don’t believe adults can make their own decisions.

While “It is not really government’s job to make people feel miserable”, this is the one area they have succeeded beyond their wildest dreams.

What if you are buying a ready meal to eat now and have left-overs for lunch tomorrow? What if you buy 3 for 4 people? What if you are training for a marathon and need to eat a lot? What if you only eat twice a day? What if you are a 240 lb football player? Until I got older I probably ate 3000 calories per day and never got fat due to constant activity. The government has no idea about what individuals are doing or what they need nor is it any of their business what they eat. Just because one can perceive a problem does not mean it is real or that there is a solution.

Eat two. They’re small. In fact, once you start to eat more than one, eat six,
