Cheesecake Anyone?

July 28, 2008 by Patricia Setzer in Label Language, Nutrition, Product Analysis with No Comments

Cheesecake, one of my favorite things in life, add some chocolate to the cheesecake and life just does not get any better than that. Sara Lee now has on the market for your convenience ”Sara Lee Bites”; wonderful little morsels of chocolate or strawberry cheesecake. Keep these in your freezer and when you need a little taste of sweet just pop one in your mouth. 

If you are like me one bite leads to another until before you know it the box is empty. Should you have some “Sara Lee Bites” in your freezer make sure to keep track of the bites you consume.

Roughly 20 bites is equal to 1/2 cup (a serving of ice cream) 440 calories

and 14 grams of saturated fat.
