Will sodium erythorbate keep you safe?
Sodium erythorbate is an additive chemically similar to ascorbic acid (Vitamin C). It is used in processed meats to prevent nitrosamines (cancerous agents that develop from nitrate preserved food) from forming. Any food preserved with nitrates is liable to develop nitrosamines, either from frying or during digestion. Sodium erythorbate is used interchangeably with ascorbic acid to prevent the formation of these cancer-causing chemicals.

Learn about corn syrup, found here
Corn syrup is often used as a sweetener in processed food. It is NOT THE SAME as high fructose corn syrup. Don't be fooled when looking up the amount of sugar a product contains if corn syrup is listed as an ingredient. This is because corn syrup contains 50% sugar, and 50% of another form of carbohydrate known as "oligosaccharides", which is pretty close to sugar.If a product has less sugar than you think it should, but contains corn syrup in the ingredient list, you'll know that the missing carbs are those oligosaccharides, not much better.

Watch the cholesterol...
While cholesterol has been shown to be less harmful than once believed, you should not consume more than 300mg a day. This product contains more than 10% of your daily cholesterol intake.If you're on a low cholesterol diet, make sure you pay attention to portion: 10% of your daily allowance can quickly become 50% when a hamburger turns into double cheeseburger. Trouble sticking to daily goals? Try limiting your meat, cheese and dairy intake to one item per meal and avoid items with multiple sources of cholesterol (like chicken with ham and cheese, breakfast sandwiches with sausage and cheese or bacon cheeseburgers). Opt for items like BLT's, chicken sandwiches with veggies and meatless pizza. Choose water and not milk for your main mealtime beverage.

"Natural" is an unregulated term!
One in four new products launched in 2010 had a label claiming it was Natural. But did you know that there is no regulatory definition for a Natural foods? While there are strict standards for Organic labeling, it's pretty much a wild west when it comes to the use of the word Natural. Hence you can find chips made from all natural potatoes. Has anyone ever seen an artificial potato?
