For many of us it’s poison control information. Just tell me about wheat, barley, rye content ~ others need to know about dairy products in there ~ and then there’s the nut nuts ~ they want to know if they’ll end up on the floor choking to death. Soy has recently hit the list as a bad deal, as has peppermint and mint!

Heard on the news the other night that FDA decided it would be better to have the values for the entire package on things that contain more than one serving, rather than per serving, so that people wouldn’t be “forced to do any math”.

This means brand new labels for everything - AGAIN. Just asinine. Don’t know about anybody else but I don’t have time nor the desire to stand there and read labels. I do know it’s almost impossible to find an assortment of food that isn’t fat free, sodium free, gluten free. Wish they would just leave it alone and bring back the old U.S. grown, manufactured products.
