It was a great idea to make everybody have a nutrition label on their products. The problem with it is that people don’t stop to pay attention to what they say. For a example a food can claim that it contains no trans fat if it makes the serving sizes small enough. Companies also manipulate the amount of calories for serving sizes. When you go to buy a package of cookies next time take a look at the serving size. I bet you will find it is about 2 cookies. Now be honest. Who only eats 2 tiny cookies at a sitting. So buyer beware. Nutrition labels are good but you have to be willing to be honest with yourself about how much you will eat at a time and then do a little math to get a correct reading.
