FDA Study on Misleading Food Labels is Misleading
Excellent article over on The Center for Science in the Public Interest doing a little watchdoggin’ on our beloved FDA.
From the original CSPI report:
The FDA report implies that agency inspectors checked more than 28,000 food labels for inaccurate nutrition information within a recent 14 month period when in reality, the inspectors merely checked to see whether a Nutrition Facts panel was present on the label, not whether it was accurate.
Well, spanks, but no-spanks, FDA. I can tell if the label is there or not WITH MY EYE. I wonder what was spent on this worthless study of 28,000 food items over 14 months?
What they implied they did would be info I could really use. A little reassurance of some accuracy in advertising in the hurricane of information we walk around in every day would certainly be nice.
