  • THOSE ARE SIX SERVINGS OF GOOD FAT NO TJUST ONE

    gitanohechicero - May 13, 2008 07:51:58 AM PST
    People think. Those are the calories for 6 servings. Besides not all fat is bad. Extra Virgin Olive Oil actually has good fat and cholesterol in it. Like the one found in fish like Salmon and Tuna (not farm raised). Please read up about it first before making such an uneducated opinion about it. Rachel Ray gave us a tasty and healthy recipie. Of what should she be ashamed that the people reading her recipies don't have common sense?

  • Where has all the common sense gone??

    This is to the people who wrote about it having 70 grams of fat... If you took some freaking time to think maybe you would have realized it was a mistake. Clearly the nutrition facts were not per serving, there were also 1800 or so calaries, 200 grams of carbohydrates, and 80 grams of protein. If you broke that down to 6 servings you would have 11 grams of fat, 300 calories, 33 carbohydrates, and 13 grams of protein. Now, 11 grams of fat is a little high, but not extreme. Actually, its a ratio of 27 calories per gram of fat which isnt bad considering the diet that is usually the base for percentage daily values is about 30 calories per gram of fat. Next time have SOME GOD DAM COMMON SENSE!!!!!!

    As Michael Scott would say GodDDD DaaammMMMnnn YOOOOUOOUUUOUUUU!!!!!!!!!!

  • 2 hours and 74 gms of fat!

    Two things going against this recipe. First, they say preparation time is over two hours. In that amount of time I could fly from Atlanta to Dallas!!! Why would anyone spend two hours making a sandwich???? Second, you would be better off sharing a Blooming Onion than eat this thing, if you care about your health at all.

  • OMG!!!!!

    IMAS - May 12, 2008 12:08:49 PM PST
    OMG!! YOU WOULD HAVE TO BE ABSOLUTELY INSANE TO PUT THIS SANDWICH IN YOUR MOUTH. NOT ONLY DOES IT HAVE MORE THAN YOUR DAILY ALOTMENT OF CALORIES, BUT HAS OVER 70 GRAMS OF FAT. I DON'T EAT 70 FAT GRAMS A WEEK, LET ALONE IN ONE SERVING OF FOOD. RACHEL RAY YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF FOR CREATING SUCH A NON-HEALTH RECIPE.

  • Um, hello fatty!

    I'm hoping this is using tuna in oil PLUS EVOO. Otherwise this must be a typo.
