Can You Trust Your Food Labels? |

A few days ago Good Morning America did a segment on whether food nutrition labels are accurate. Guess what! They aren't and the US government only does random checks.
Diane
Sawyer and crew sent Ritz crackers, David's sunflower seeds and Wonder
bread to an independent food lab for analysis. Wow, were the labels
wrong!
- Ritz crackers - 36% higher in sodium than shown
- David's sunflower seeds - 23% higher in saturated fat than shown
- Wonder bread - 70% total fat not the 11% shown
