The Importance of Being Meticulous
Hey guys! How goes it? I’ve got to keep this post short as I am in the middle of watching Family Guy’s Star Wars spoof with the boyf (the things I do for love…), but I wanted to give a few links to resources for finding out exactly what ingredient names in your foods mean. Also, just a reminder to read your labels carefully if you’re trying to abstain from anything in particular as I was recently pissed to find high fructose corn syrup in my Swanson’s Vegetarian Vegetable Broth.
FAIL.

Do you actively check the nutritional and ingredients labels on your foods?

My husband and I shop together, and sometimes he gets tired of how long it takes me to pick a product when I am trying to look for something different. Case in point was barbeque sauce. I took so much label reading to find one without HFCS in it!! Grrrr….. Sometimes I just want to eat, you know?
