Other label things that get on nerves...
-"cholesterol free!" on cereal/grain products.... there was no cholesterol in it to begin with!
-"X grams of whole grains in every serving" ... what does this even mean? there's no RDA for "whole grains."
-the whole awkward serving size thing mentioned above
-the AHA certified check mark on foods like Coco Puffs. Pretty sure that's not soooo good for your heart...
