Just How Much Sodium Can They Pack Into Fast Food?

The one (and ONLY) fast food that I indulge in on occasion is Subway. I love their veggie and veggie max menu options and I REALLY felt good about my choices. It was the one place I felt safe.


Well, after reading this line "Just one 6-inch Roasted Garlic loaf from Subway–just the bread, no meat, no cheeses, no nothing–has 1,260 mg sodium, about as much as 14 strips of bacon" in a PreventDisease.com article entitled Scientists Officially Link Processed Foods To Autoimmune Diseases, I knew my last bastion of fast food treats was now firmly on the "no-no" list - right next to the Colonel and Ronald.

I should have known better, there is no such thing as a "safe" processed food. The whole reason I maintain this blog is to offer people ways to serve up tasty, healthy, comfort food that doesn't kill you. You shouldn't be putting your life at risk by ordering a bean burrito (Taco Bell Bean Burrito = 960mg sodium), or a slice of veggie pizza (Papa Murphy's Veggie Pizza Slice = 965mg sodium)!

So, coming across this article was just a subtle reminder to stay strong, stay vegan, and stay the heck away from processed foods!!
