    You can make any of these healthy or bad-for-you depending on the type of ingredients you're using.

    It's a trick question, isn't it. Hmmmmm, what do I win? Hmmm well I would chose number one, maybe it has more calories, but I will skip the bread thanks.

    I know which one is yummiest. I'd go with a PBJ. YUMMY!!! Whole wheat bread, Smucker's natural peanut butter (or whatever; I'm not afraid of regular, but the Smucker's natural is really good and has no sugar), and some real fruit preserves. delicious. Plus, healthy fats and minerals in the peanut butter. :)

    Are we talking lowest cal or healthiest? There's a difference, IMO. :)

    I would do the ribs but instead of wild rice I would do Fiesta lime rice..

    I would pick the peanut butter and jelly sandwich - with low calorie, high fiber bread, peanut butter with no added sugar and sugar free jelly... but then I am one of the few people in the world who aren't in love with ribs... my husband eats my portion for me when he brings them home 8*)

    Actually I would stay away from rice, Rice is a starchy food, adn thats one thing I try to stay away from the most. And I am having success 41 pounds in 2 1/2 months. :)

    depends. that's just one meal. what matters is overall nutrition over the course of a day, week, month, year....

    out of these 3 choices:
    1 Pork rib with wild rice
    grilled cheese sandwich
    peanut butter and jelly sandwich

    - How fatty is the rib? How much rice? Was a lot of oil/butter used in cooking either? What sauce and how much on the rib?
    - What kind of bread? How thick is the slice? What kind of cheese? How many slices? How much butter on the bread?
    - What kind of bread/slice thickness? How much peanut butter? Reduced fat or no? What kind of jelly? Sugar free? How much?

    I don't know which is healthier, but I would go for the PB&J.

    I wouldn't do any of those. Two pieces of 100% whole wheat bread toasted, 1 tbsp of mayo, and two fried eggs. Makes a delicious filling sandwich. All the ingredients are loaded with good fats and protein.

    Personally, I would pick the PB&J. I don't care for ribs and they can be quite fatty for pork. I love a good grilled cheese but you'd get more protein from the PB. I love PB&J's on 100% whole wheat bread, with natural PB and Simply Fruit spread.

    I also second the fried egg sandwich - but I add cheese instead of mayo :)

    This is why people have a hard time sticking to eating better......You're making it way too complicated.
