I’ve been shocked by the labels, as I’ve been looking for food for the Foodbank. I have said this repeatedly this week: this crap would never pass EU laws. My supposedly healthy protein shake contains 40 percent of daily cholesterol but is not labelled as such. It simply lists the mg of cholesterol and leaves it to the consumer to calculate. This despite giving the RDA for fats, minerals and vitamins.
And don’t get me started on the food dyes I found in my sardines. If you are buying sardines, I don’t think you would care how they look. We need stricter standards here, like the EU. The crap we are eating is going to kill us.
