I agree with you LaLa... I strive to make healthy meals for my kids, but as you said there are those time where a quick fix is in order. I like that there are more and more ways to have a healthier quick fix meal on hand. :) Awesome!

I think they're looking at what kids WANT to eat (versus what WE want them to eat) and they're trying to provide a healthier alternative. Should kids eat chicken nuggets every day? Uh, no. But if I'm going to have chicken nuggets in the freezer for that one night out of the month I'm not home to fix dinner, I'd rather pick the ones that are high in protein. I'd rather they eat a snack that's made with whole grains, that doesn't have high fructose corn syrup in it. I don't think the occasional single serving applesauce or pudding matters much in the big picture, because my kids eat a variety of fresh, healthy foods every day.

Bunch of marketing trickery disguising crap food as being healthy. Ugh. This kind of infuriates me. Bunch of marketing trickery disguising crap food as being healthy. Ugh.
