My weekday lunch consists of green beans(canned) with tomato sauce and broccoli warmed together, a sandwich and half an apple. The sandwich is usually one of three possibilities depending on what I am having for supper that week. If I am having fish for supper that week, the sandwich will be either packaged turkey lunch meat or canned chicken mixed up with Miracle Whip Light and if I am not having fish for supper, it will be either the turkey or canned tuna with the Miracle Whip Light. The sandwich is also made with 100% whole wheat bread and slices of fresh tomatoes with Miracle Whip on one slice of bread. If the sandwich is the turkey, then the other slice of bread will have mustard on it. The apple will one of three possibilities, Braeburn, Gala or Red Delicious depending on what was in on sale or in season.

Sounds nice, even though I am very familiar with western food. I just read a good book on diet and 1 important point that the book trying to say is a healthy diet is when you eat a bit of everything and a bad diet is when you eat too much of 1 thing (one kind of food). Make sense..

well, no miracle whip, regular or light for me - corn starch (modified food starch) in fact, only real mayo works for me because of the old demon, corn on the other hand, I like mustard on my sandwiches except for tuna, and I don't have it very often and only with a little bit of mayo

I like the taste of Miracle Whip better than mayo and it has less calories and fat than mayo.

makes no difference, its got something (corn) in it that makes it on the same level as poison to my body - I tell people that they might as well give me real poison, because it would hurt less and kill me faster

I don't know why people don't embrace Miracle Whip or Miracle Whip Light. It's good stuff. And much less fat than regular mayo.

Avocado is a lovely substitute for mayo/miracle whip...hummus is, too. Make sure that your bread is whole grain and, preferably, sugarless. Frozen green beans would be better than canned, but it's not insanely detrimental. I agree that your lunch is relatively good. :]
