Good one, Business Week

So I was reading Business Week's 'The Best and Worst of Everything in 2008', when I came across this gem:

Worst Meat Trend
Spam

First introduced in 1937, Spam, a processed, canned meat made from pork and ham, is making a comeback as Americans face rising food prices during the current economic slowdown. ... But while a tin of Spam might be friendly on the wallet ... the meat is not friendly on the arteries or waistline. A single serving provides 1/3 of a day’s worth of sodium and saturated fat, according to
the FDA nutrition label for Spam.

So, if we eat 3 times a day, and 1 serving provides 1/3 of a day's worth of sodium and saturated fat ...

Way to go, Business Week.
