Food Labeling Guide Chapter 5 - Nutrition Labeling

Grocery shopping and reading labels are a delight for some and a real headache for others. Regardless of how you feel about them, they provide good information to help a consumer determine if a particular food product meet his or her nutritional needs. In addition to listing the amounts of macronutrients (fat, protein and carbohydrate including fiber), a nutrition facts panel may also indicate vitamin and mineral content of the product.

This week, we look at Part 5 of 5 (!) of a Food Labeling Guide.
