Getting Sauced
What a way to ruin a vegetable. Birds Eye Broccoli & Cheese Sauce manages to cram 3 grams of sat fat and 490 mg of sodium into a 1/2 cup serving. Green Giant Broccoli & Three Cheese Sauce cuts the bad fat to 1 gram but not the sodium - 510mg.
Does not matter if you are looking at cheese, crfeam, sesame giner, , or teriyaki. If it comes with sauce, it comes with roughly 400 to 600 mg of sodium in roughly every half cup.
Solution: make your own.
