misleading labels
Advertisers can adjust the labels to tell people what they want to hear without putting anything behind it. There was a "butter" debate on GoaD the other day and some people were recommending Brummel and Brown yogurt & butter spread. I claimed that was an unhealthy choice and they said, what is unnatural about yogurt and butter? I went to the Brummel and Brown website and although they claim "no transfat per serving*" there is very clearly partially hydrogenated oil in there, i.e., transfats. Become a label reader and know what the stuff means. If there are things you cannot pronounce or don't know where they came from, you may want to consider moving on.
