tanya [admin] said: Sheree - there is a category called "diettrash" where I put foods that I find a bit abhorrent. It is not a review since I don't do taste nor do I give it a rating. But really - I review whatever I want and if there are any suggestions of things to review - please feel free to email them to me.

Banquet doesnt claim to be gourmet like other brands...anything in a box is not gourmet. Be a bit realistic!

The Banquet Corn Dog Meal has 1 corn dog (batter coated chicken on a stick), a small handful of french fries, a piece of chocolate cake and a little bit of corn. This meal essentially has no nutrients and is 490 calories worth of crap. You also get 28% of the recommended daily amount (RDA) of total fat, 18% of the RDA for saturated fat, and 33% of the RDA for sodium (800 mg). If that weren't bad enough, the very small portion size only leaves you hungrier than when you started eating the meal. 
The Banquet Corn Dog Meal reminds me of the term 'gateway drug' - It's like the start of bad eating habits, so I implore you to avoid this like the plague. It's pretty cheap at only $1.00, but so are Michelina's Lean Gourmet meals which are much healthier. I recommend the
