in the amounts they use in prepared frozen foods? - znufrii Nov 28, 12:32 17
- Lean Cuisine has 300-700 mg of sodium per meal. Daily guideline is 2400 mg. - loosilu Nov 28, 12:35 16
  - the point being that Lean Cuisine is not the typically chosen fast food meal - Reagen Nov 28, 12:44 8
    - hmmm, they sure seem to be a big seller around here. However, I have no idea of actual sale numbers. -- nm - loosilu Nov 28, 12:45 6
      - I think his point is that any single brand or variety does not constitute a representative enough sample by which to draw any conclusion. - znufrii Nov 28, 12:47 5
        
        my quick googling suggests Lean Cuisine is the top selling line of frozen meals, so it could be seen as typical. -- nm - loosilu Nov 28, 12:49 4
        
        If there were only two lines. -- nm - Reagen Nov 28, 12:50 3

        which you have demonstrated by...? -- nm - Reagen Nov 28, 12:52 1
        
        true, I haven't. - loosilu Nov 28, 12:54
    - "frozen food" -- nm - Reagen Nov 28, 12:44
  - though I rarely defend znu, I must point out that he said food, not Lean Cuisine :) -- nm - crash davis Nov 28, 12:37 6
    - they're decent frozen meals. It's not gourmet, but it's better than hot pockets. -- nm - loosilu Nov 28, 12:38 5
      - this is single point data analysis. -- (link) - amanda Nov 28, 12:40 1
        
        that's ... not a Lean Cuisine. -- nm - loosilu Nov 28, 12:41
      - mmm....hot pockets... -- nm - znufrii Nov 28, 12:39 1
        
        they are tasty. -- nm - loosilu Nov 28, 12:42
      - I know, but sometimes I have to make the cheap joke. -- nm - crash davis Nov 28, 12:39
