20 Worst Supermarket Foods in America Unveiled
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Today, authors David Zinczenko and Matt Goulding revealed a definitive list of the “20 Worst Supermarket Foods in America” as featured in the updated and expanded Eat This, Not That! All New Supermarket Survival Guide (Rodale; Paperback, $19.99) — the essential guidebook for navigating the American supermarket. To compile the list of the most caloric and nutritionally devoid supermarket options from across the country, Zinczenko and Goulding, who have spent countless hours interviewing leading nutritionists and industry experts, scoured grocery store aisles for surprising nutritional pitfalls and their calorie-wise counterparts. Eat This, Not That! All New! Supermarket Survival Guide by David Zinczenko with Matt Goulding “The average supermarket contains more nutritional minefields than ever before,” said Zinczenko, author of the bestselling EAT THIS, NOT THAT! series and Editorial Director/Editor-in-Chief of Men's Health. “Whether items are masquerading as healthy or the food is a more obvious indulgence, like Marie Callender's Cheesy Chicken Pot Pie, with its first listed ingredients being chicken fat, oils, cream, and cheese—careful consideration and proper research always produces a better swap.” To come up with the “20 Worst Supermarket Foods in America,” the authors evaluated calorie counts and other nutritional values such as fat, saturated fat, sodium and added sugar across 20 specific categories, including condiments, cereals, canned goods, frozen entrées, ice cream and others. After analyzing nutrition labels and ingredient lists, they came up with 20 grocery aisle atrocities—one within each category—which are among the worst supermarket items in America. Topping the 2012 list is Marie Callender's “Cheesy Chicken Pot Pie,” which packs a colossal 1,140 calories and 72 grams of fat—the calorie equivalent of nine 12-ounce bottles of Guinness Draught.
