The One Label a Day Challenge
Here’s the challenge: Every day, pick one food product in your house or at the store and read the ingredients. Skip the nutrition information, just read the ingredients. Then decide whether you want to eat it and/or serve it to your family.
It’s so easy to be caught up in exaggerated health claims, convenience, or flashy marketing (not to mention pestering children) and lured into a purchase. Taking time to read the ingredients (not the nutrition information!) is a way to better understand what you are buying and take a pause from a possible impulse buy.
So take the challenge and read a label before you decide. You may choose yes, and you may choose no, but at least you’ll be making an informed, thoughtful decision. And that’s the most important thing.
