Comment on This Apple Lie at the grocery store

I was with you at the beginning, but—
This pie alone contains 400% daily value saturated fat, which is terrible for long-term health.
A single serving only contains 40%. Not great, but not as terrible as you’re making it out to be. Very few foods are good for long-term health when eaten alone, and singling out this particular one because it doesn’t fit with your specific use case weakens your argument.
They are lying about the ingredients. That’s true, and it should be noted because false advertising is terrible for consumers. Not because it’s bad for a one-meal-a-day fad diet, but because it’s bad in general for anyone who buys a product based on what is on the label.

You probably shouldn’t be eating an entire pie every day. That isn’t going to be good for you, even if it was made with the very best ingredients available.

Agreed. Best to diversify pie intake. Apple, chocolate, blueberry etc.

Good plan.
