No. This is a large unhealthy snack.

Eat the cheese stick and the pickle, trade the rest for real food.

Depends on your standards. Looks disgusting to me.

Health-wise, you have a cup of sugar, a pouch of probably sugar, a PB and sugar on starch slab next to a pile of salty starch and a stick of salt water, with a cheese stick on the side. With not much protein or fibre that's a lot of food to leave you hungry soon after, and not a lot of nutritional value.

Taste-wise, eeugh, but that's just personal preference.

the only think unhealthy here is the cheesestick, your fascination with protein is interesting, can you elaborate? The majority of Americans get more than triple the recommended protein.

As a professional chef, I would rate this lunch better than what most people eat.

Not shitty food porn

It's wild. Idk how that person can look at Peanut Butter and cheese and then claim it lacks substantial protein. Rofl

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Not much protein? Excuse me what? There's literally peanut butter and cheese. What in the world are you talking about?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

By proportion. It's mostly carbs.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

Sure but still a decent amount of protein. Peanut butter is dense as fuck.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

Sodium: Yes

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

This is gourmet hospital food 😂

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

After a quick and dirty look at nutrional fact lables: That's almost half the daily recommended sodium, over a third the fat, and three tablespoons of sugar. Depending on the PB and J brands and types, it could be more fat, sodium and sugar.

How much lead is in there?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago

Acceptable? I mean, if it's what you've got it's what you eat. But if you're an adult who cares about their health and this is what you're eating every day... it looks both sad and unhealthy. It isn't what I would accept for myself if I were able to choose what I was eating.

The annoying thing is that people seem to think they need to have so many things to make a meal. You have pear juice and apple sauce and a sandwich and a pickle... you can just make and eat a sandwich and it would be tastier and more nutritionally complete, assuming it is a large sandwich with lots of protein and veggies. Or just pack yourself a bowl of soup (again, with lots of protein and veggies) that you meal prepped earlier and pop it in the microwave. Then drink water.

The only protein source here is the cheese stick and the rest is all just carbs on carbs with a little smattering of fat. Basically no fiber besodes the pickle and the apple sauce pouch which barely counts.

This is fine every now and again, but yeesh.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago (2 children)

The pb and j has more protein than the cheese stick without the cholesterol and excess fat, it also has fiber.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago

Not enough protein and not that much fat

https://tools.myfooddata.com/nutrition-comparison/1301134-784435/wt1-wt1/1-1/1

You could have 2 cheese sticks and have the same protein and less than half the calories and still less fat.

There's some fiber, but the PBJ is mostly just carb and fat.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

I mean, its food, I'd eat it.

Depending on the source the Jalapeño chips could be not so great. Often they are produced with seed oils which are super high in Omega 6, but without a balanced diet to counteract that with the other omegas this could lead to internal inflammation over time. This is (as far as I'm aware) why eating processed foods makes you feel terrible.

The white American bread is basically pure sugar, with very little gluten, so that's not great.

Peanut butter is not very high in protein, and most American sources are super high in sugar. It does contain lots of fat though, hopefully peanut oil but probably sunflower seed oil, see above for why that's not great.

Cucumber Pickles are nearly devoid of nutrition, but if they're live fermented and not brined they're good for digestion, paired with this much sugar though expect some major gas and probably a trip to the bathroom within half an hour.

The mozz stick is a good source of protein.

All in all, 3/10. Poorly balanced but delicious and loaded with carbs for energy. Will feel bloated afterwards.

That wouldn’t be acceptable if I got this served ar a bar, accompanying beers.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

Ehh. Not a huge fan of both applesauce AND pear juice. Lots of added sugar. At a minimum, I would replace the applesauce with apple slices or the pear juice with water.

If it's in the budget, some carrots would make this better. They're fairly inexpensive if you get whole carrots and process them how you'd like. I like to buy a lot of them, cut them as part of meal prep, and eat/use them over the week.

The sandwich is fine, especially if this person doesn't typically eat a large lunch. I wouldn't have thought it was out of place if that was a whole sandwich, though.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

For a kid; that isn't a whole lot of calories. Unless your friend is small and has a low metabolism or doesn’t do a whole lot.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago

Looks like a good amount of calories to me, the two fruitdrinks alone would make up for most of it. The problem is that most of it comes in the form of sugar and carbohydrates. And there is a worryingly lack of fibre, which means that whoever eats that will likely get hungry again in a short while and crave "snacks" and other unnecessary calories.

Vegetarian so yese

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

I see nothing wrong with it

[–] [email protected] -2 points 6 days ago

Tell your friend to mind their own business if they don’t have to eat it

[–] [email protected] 38 points 1 week ago (10 children)

No veg, little fiber, high in refined carbs. Kinda shit, imo. Goddamn, eat a piece of whole fruit instead of processed shit that’s basically just sugar.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 days ago

It got cheese stick.
