Key
Points
Supermarkets
have over 50,000 food products on their shelves
Less
meals are being prepared at home and many people are relying
more and more on pre-prepared/packaged foods
'Nutrient
claims' printed in bold on the front of the product
like
"low cholesterol" can make decision making easier,
can save precious time looking up the nutrition information
panel on the back of the product and doing mathematical
calculations
BUT
many nutrient claims are frequently misunderstood or
can be misleading - many shoppers are confused.
