The Truth About Manwich: NOT part of a Healthy Meal Plan

with one comment

I just witnessed a crime greater than all the lies in all the courtrooms all over the USA.  I saw a commercial, a Manwich commercial, that proclaimed Manwich had a full serving of ‘wholesome’ vegetables in every serving.  THAT IS DISGUSTING.  I am seriously getting nauseous just thinking about it.

Let’s review what’s actually in a CAN of Manwich.

So what are the main ingredients in a can of Manwich?  Tomato puree (water, tomato paste), high fructose corn syrup, distilled vinegar, and corn syrup.  So where are the vegetables?  I guess they are referring to tomato paste?  What a crock!  Sure, the commercial might be cute, but I hold to my position that this is one of the biggest loads of crap I have ever seen.
