Healthy Lunch #1

With an eye on health, we took to 7-Eleven to find a healthy alternative to ramen and taquitos - obviously a masochistic move. Emerging victorious in more than one way, we learned a healthy lunch was possible all while staying within a 7-Eleven.

Sub-branded "Fresh to Go," this Turkey, Ham & Cheddar Cheese Combo on Wheat Bread was wholesome. The bread tasted like real bread - with a nutty texture, perhaps whole grain? The cheese was a bit pasty and think. It would have been more agreeable to trade one slice of the cheese for a scrap of lettuce or a slice of tomato.

The 7-Select, Kettle Style Chips bear homage to the original Cape Cod Kettle Chips. This generic 7-Eleven product has flavor that is very present, a healthy, up-market look, and simple packaging. The chips are thick, however, perhaps a bit too thick. Goodbye crispy - here's CRUNCHY. Oral laceration was about on par with Captain Crunch cereal.

All together a decent meal devoid of the pizazz of junk food, but who knew you could love yourself and eat at 7-Eleven? 6/11
