What's your fave frozen meal? Here's a coupon (it's progressive, so the more people you share it with, the higher it grows in value!) for Healthy Choice meals.Healthy ChoiceWith Healthy Choice, you can enjoy a more healthful lifestyle without giving up the flavorful foods you love. Our chefs create delicious foods that meet or exceed the highest nutritional standards, while using innovative cooking technologies like steaming to heighten flavor, optimize texture and maximize crispness. From savory soups to great-tasting meals and snacks, you can find Healthy Choice throughout the grocery store and feel confident that you’re making smart decisions about what you eat. Brands with “healthy” in their name are held to a higher nutrition standard set by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA). Healthy Choice is the only major brand in its category that can call 100% of its products “healthy” as approved by the FDA. This means that each meal must have: • Low fat • Low saturated fat • Controlled sodium and cholesterol • 10% of the daily value for three beneficial nutrients (e.g., calcium, protein, fiber, iron, vitamin A or vitamin C) Company History The Healthy Choice story began with former ConAgra Foods CEO Charles "Mike" Harper. While traveling through California on business, this hot-fudge-sundae lover suffered a mild heart attack. Although he made a full recovery, he needed to re-evaluate his eating habits. So he began a search for foods that satisfied both his taste and health needs. When his search proved unsuccessful, he took it upon himself to bring to market products that taste good and are good for you. And that's how Healthy Choice was born. read more..
