An experiment in non-beige

I have a little book in which I write every damn thing I eat. Lunch today was an experiment for which I feel obliged to record the entire ingredients list of the two commercial packet products I ate for lunch, and I can't be bothered writing it all by hand.
The short version is 200g of Latina Fresh Ricotta and Spinach Agnolotti and about 80-100g of San Remo Deli Fresh. Fresh Pasta Sauce, Sundried Tomato and Red Wine. One buttered cape seed roll.
All I could taste was the salt, so it wasn't quite the fun experience I'd hoped for, but I want to get an idea of how much of an impact a medium-bad meal would have on me. Something I'd expect to be fed on a plane perhaps, or the best of a bad bunch at a foodhall that shockingly did not supply raw celery.
