1) Unlike the olden days where they listed vitamins and minerals, they primarily give the percentage of "bad" stuff to stay away from instead of what is healthy to eat. This gives the impression like we've all been good boys and girls so you can have a little as a treat to eat now, but not too much.
2) The exception are fad nutrients like fiber. But other extremely important nutrients are unlisted so the labels are basically worthless in planning a healthy meal.
This brings me to two things to say:
1) The bad is not always bad. It's more of an agenda based on the philosophy "what not to eat" instead of what to eat.
2) And if we keep listening to such advice we'll be sicker than ever.
Can I have an "Amen!"?
