Title: Is it naive to believe the nutritional information on packaged food?
Post by: bagofeyes on November 16, 2007, 12:42:33 AM

If something has printed on it that it is so-and-so calories and contains so-and-so grams of protein etc., how accurate is it? Is this sort of thing properly enforced?

Hey, I eat healthy. If I have to take out an eye, that's the breaks.

I'd use it as a good starting point but I wouldn't risk my life on it.

Also know that things that say "fat free" or whatever don't really HAVE to be fat free, but they can contain like up to a gram of fat per serving or something like that. Yeah, slightly misleading.
