Annie's Cheesy Ravioli (canned) and a slight rant.

When I was a kid, I was OBSESSED with Chef Boyardee's Ravioli. As I got older I realized how fattening and a waste of calories it was...

Being on Weight Watchers quite strictly at the time, I vowed never to eat it again.

Is it wrong that I miss it though? lol

Then, the other day at Stop n' Shop, I found Annie's Cheesy Ravioli. Annie's has yet to let me down so I am going to give it a try. Although the nutrition facts are not too different from what you would see on the back of a Chef Boyardee label, I am trying this for nostalgic reasons and purely out of curiosity (because let's be honest, that sodium content is ridiculous).

So let me just be clear on something.

I feel like I am becoming one of those shoppers that buys something purely because it says "Organic" on the label. That just makes me look ignorant, I know, when
'organic' doesn't even necessarily mean it's better for you, or different, or healthier.
This canned ravioli by Annie's is a pure example of that.

They key to really eating healthy is to buy and eat your food fresh; nothing frozen, nothing canned.

In addition to that, cutting out dairy from your diet will make a huge impact. Switch to almond milk or other dairy substitutes and you will soon be on your way to cleaner living.
