[...] And food labels are notorious for being tricky to read and have traditionally been rather far reaching with their claims. Items like Fiber One Chewy Bars and Nabisco Fig Newtons 100% Whole Grain Cookies (there’s that pesky whole grain thing again) have raised the ire of various consumer groups. [...]

I am shocked at how much sugar is in some of the healthy snacks that we buy. Now I always check before I buy so that it is not just low in fat but low in sugar aswell.

I LOVE FIBER ONE BARS! Thanks for the tips, especially like the healthy snacks for kids. I gotta start buying string cheese and find those Garden of Eatin' torilla chips. Unsweetened applesauce and sugar free pudding are a staple already in our house. Haven't gotten the Fage yogurt yet. TB-Milwaukee's last blog post..Family Shopping

I've been a label-reader for a long time. But I still buy stuff that's a compromise a lot of the time, because (a) I'm lazy and (b) there are so few tasty, convenient, healthy processed foods out there. Finding 100% health pre-packaged foods is pretty much impossible at the grocery store, and difficult even at health food stores. A lot of "health foods" are full of white flour and sugar and saturated fat. Even if it's all organic, it's still junk food. Crabby McSlacker's last blog post..Tortoises and Barbells

Great post- I signed up for the newsletter. We try to read labels, and sometimes I am amazed at what is in some of the supposedly healthy things!! Especially some of the 'kid friendly' foods- all filled with junk! Jennifer's last blog post..Can't they all be long weekends??

I’ve been eating the Fiber One bars too, In the Trenches! The thing is, I still will eat them, because they’ve got a ton of fiber and sugar isn’t a big issue for me. But I can def see how these little things will add up over a lifetime. This was a great post – I’ve gotta come up with a fun title for myself like PSCFC
