We all know that there are foods we should avoid, but sometimes we all need to hear the news from an outside source - other than our moms.
The Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) has made a list of 10 foods you should NEVER eat. Here's details on the top three.
- Pepperidge Farm Original Flaky Crust Roasted Chicken Pot Pie has 510 calories and 9 grams of saturated fat, but that is only half a serving!!! So if you eat the entire pie, which seems likely, you're getting about half a day's worth of calories in one sitting.
- McDonald's Chicken Selects Premium Breast Strips - the meat might be specially selected, but they are coated with fried breading just like the familiar, but not-so-premium, Chicken McNuggets.
- The Cheesecake Factory's 6 Carb Cheesecake may be light in carbs but it packs practically the same amount of calories and fat as their regular Cheesecake.
Other list makers include: Dove Ice Cream, Mrs. Fields Milk Chocolate & Walnut Cookies, Starbucks Venti (20 oz.) Caffè Mocha, Burger King Quad Stacker, Campbell's condensed soups, Chipotle's Chicken Burrito, and the Mint Chip Dazzler available at Häagen-Daaz stores.

Oh NO! I love Dove Ice Cream! Especially those little bite things, YUM!
1I can't effin believe that Chipotle is on there! Not that I thought they were, like, HEALTH food or anything, but one of the TEN WORST??? Good thing I'm too poor to eat there now!
I remember a few years ago, I took my little brother out and we shared a chicken strip basket from DQ. I started counting calories the next day and nearly died of shock when I found out I consumed 1000 calories in HALF the basket. HALF!!!

Moderation in everything.
3I have no idea how this list is not a record of the last 10 things I've eaten! Not a single thing that I eat is on here...however, I got a little scared when I read "Pepperidge Farm" because I thought it was going to say Geneva cookies - and there's no way I'm giving those babies up.
4Oooooh my gosh I love Campbell's Condensed Chicken Noodle Soup!
It's gross, I know, but I
love it. I even keep a can in my desk drawer! ahaha
5I eat Campbell's condensed ABC soup all the time!! This list sucks.
6Blonde, I keep the Campell's soup at hand in my desk too. Tomato and chicken & stars. Mmm.
7Soup????
God i love cheesecake factory..(tear)...
8Don't be messin' with my Chipotle! How bad can it really be? I get mine with rice, bean, grilled chicken, spicy corn salsa and mild tomato salsa. No cheese, sour cream or guac. Now, dosen't that sound healthy? (please say yes!)
9I get really similar to that 3sweet but in a bowl. I cant eat the corn salsa anymore because my stomach doesnt agree with it anymore
10Oh Mannnnnnnnn
I live right across the street from the Cheesecake
Factory and often run in there for a low carb slice.
11I completely agree with Jen76. Moderation is key.
12Okay, reading this list just made me so hungry. This list totally sucks cuz I love everything on it.
13i completely disagree with the starbucks. i used to work there, and as long as you order things with nonfat milk and without the whipped cream, it's not bad for you at all!! venti is a lot of milk though..i tend to go with grande.
14I see what the campbell's soup comment was. I only know like 2 things on this list to begin with LOL!
15I am shocked about the chicken burrito, shocked, I avoid all the other crap, but Chipotle has this fricken reputation for being healthy, glad to know the truth.
16Starbucks make me sad, but I order mine nonfat and w/ no whip (which makes me feel better) but on their site for nutrition it still has a lot of calories
17wow! my 1200 calories a day would go buy so quick!
181200?????
19The Cheesecake Factory is nothing new...but I love that place too freaking much to give it up! I think it's good once in a while.
20Oh wow. The mint chip dazzler at haagen daaz has to be the best thing I have tasted EVER. Of course there is a reason for this: it is horrible for you!
21Well I have NOTHING to worry about because I eat NONE of those and NEVER EVER WILL!!!
