I saw this whole wheat tuna wrap at a health food store, and it SEEMED like a waistline-friendly lunch solution. But one glance at the nutrition label made me do a double take. There's no way...
I couldn't resist - I had to take it back to the BL kitchen (aka my "lab") to perform a full-on Food Autopsy™. I unfolded the large tortilla to find a sardine-size serving of tuna, a tidal wave of mayo, two tiny sliced cherry tomatoes and a small single lettuce leaf (not even close to a serving of veg). OMG!
Bottom line: This wrap delivers a hefty 600 calories, full-fat mayo and the carb equivalent of nearly four slices of bread. Eat enough of these, and your odds of losing weight will fall somewhere between nada and zero!
