AMERICAN ABC NEWS TONIGHT TOLD US THERE WILL BE NEW VERY CLEAR "CALORIE" AMOUNT LABELS, FOR A MUCH BETTER UNDERSTANDING JUST HOW MANY CALORIES ARE IN THINGS.
THEY GAVE EXAMPLES.
MAYBE CHECK IT ALL OUT ON ABC WEBSITE.
BUT IT IS A SOCKER. LIKE A SERVING OF A POP DRINK IS ABOUT 40 PERCENT OF IT, BUT OF COURSE PEOPLE, KIDS, DRINK ALL OF IT. THE CALORIES IN A WHOLE POP DRINK IS VERY HIGH, SHOCKINGLY HIGH,
ANOTHER EXAMPLE WAS SAY A "MUFFIN" - A SERVING WOULD BE 1/2 A MUFFIN, BUT WE EAT IT ALL...... AND THAT IS 400 CALORIES!!
WOW IT'S ABOUT TIME THE TRUE AMOUNT OF CALORIES WAS PLACED ON THINGS WE EAT AND DRINK. NOT IN THE PAST BEING SO, IS ONE REASON WHY WE HAVE WAY WAY TOO MANY OVERWEIGHT PEOPLE/CHILDREN IN OUR WESTERN WORLD.
THEN OF COURSE IT MEANS BEING MUCH MORE HEALTH MINDED, AS TO WHAT WE EAT AND HOW MUCH WE EAT.
CERTAINLY THE TRUE CALORIE FACTS SHOULD BE ON EVERYTHING PEOPLE BUY TO CONSUME IN THIER DAILY DIET.
IT IS A MOVE IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION, AND APPARENTLY YOU CAN THANK MRS. OBAMA FOR PUSHING HARD TO GET THE NEW LABELING.
