Beware of health food labelling
Don't rely on health food labels for the fat or sugar content
of the product. Here are some examples of what health food
labels often say and then an explanation of what those healthy
titles really mean.
|
 |
Low
fat |
Each serving will actually give you 3 grams of fat or less.
|
| Fat
free |
No, not exactly. Lets try less than 0.5 grams of fat per serving.
|
| Reduced
fat, less fat |
This
is reduced by about 25% on average. |
| Light |
This
varies from about half the fat of the original product to only
a third of the fat. |
| Sugar
free |
No,
wrong again. It usually contains per serving, less than 0.5
grams of sugar. |
