I thought this was amusing.
 
I was at the food store tonight. In the frozen food isle, on of the display cases had the following items in it. Top shelves Lean Cuisine, pushing there total carb count boldly on the box. (Around 12 per meal more or less.) Middle shelves, ah yes, Weight Watchers Smart Choice meals. In bold yellow letters on there box, "The truth about carbs, read the back." (Ofcourse we all know what was spelled out on the back.) And on the bottom shelves, a newer product, Lean Gourmet pushing about 11 to 12 carbs a meal on there front. It was like a Weight Watchers sandwich!! I have to chuckle as I moved on down the line.

I agree Mary.. After hearing about them on a comercial I just had to check it out at the grocery store. Such a small portion for soo many carbs. KInda made me go hmmmm.
