    Grilled Lemon chicken from kings or shoprite?

    Hey guys, sometimes I'm too busy too cook so I'll grab that premade grilled lemon chicken at a supermarket.

    I finally got a label for one of these things..

    It say the sauce has:

    water, lemon juice, vegatable shortening powder, natural flavor #5 and #6, dextrose, salt, canole oil, flavoring (dextrose, salt, partially hydrogenated vegatable oil, onion, spices, turmeric, garlic) xanthan gum, onion powder.

    ???? Is this extra stuff all from the lemon juice?? I thought I was getting just a clean piece of chicken breast grilled with some lemon juice. Or am I wrong?

    thanks guys

    all of that extra stuff is a bunch of preservatives, dextrose is added sugar, and hydrogenated oils add trans fat, which is no good. Now i know sometimes in a pinch items like this are OK as i do it myself from time to time....though i must say that i am just going to start precooking meals and packing them to ensure that i know exactly what i'm putting in me.

    yeah, that sucks. I wish they would just have a nutrion store around here that just made these kinds of food for people on the go. might be a good idea to open up one!! lol

    guess i'll have to cut out this chicken then since I want to cut down on my bodyfat by a large amount...

    thanks
