Re: Can I eat This

Why do you want "monoglycerides"?

Re: Can I eat This

Why do you want "monoglycerides"?

honestly.. I didnt know what they were.. so I looked them up.. and I still dont fully understand it..
Are they something I should not be eating ?
I thought this would be something easy to take to work and get alot of veggies in. but I will skip it if that is best

Re: Can I eat This

I would not worry about them (the monoglycerides). For a quick easy thing it looks easy but veggies could be very pure if you prepared them yourself. So is it worth it? Was it good?

Aren't monoglycerides trans-fats?

What are monoglycerides? | Answerbag

Fats, Oils, Fatty Acids, Triglycerides - Chemical Structure (Page 3 of 3)

Or is this an example of everything you read isn't true?

Why not cook some vegetables yourself? Would that be less "easy"?

Just buy some bags of frozen vegetables, make your own mix, and heat that at work.

And if that's your lunch, don't forget to have some protein and fat with it.

Oh,, I didnt eat them.. I was just asking if I could.

From all the great answers here.. I will just skip it.. and go with the other veggies I have already been cooking...

thanks again
