ESL Podcast 1179 – Reading Food Labels
Amy: Put a big bag of those potato chips in the basket.
Giorgio: Have you read the nutritional 1 label on these chips?
Amy: No, but look. This doesn’t have very much saturated 2 fat, trans fat, or sodium 3.
Giorgio: Look at the serving size. It’s three potato chips. How often do you stop at three chips?
Amy: Okay, no potato chips. I’ll get this package of cookies. There aren’t many calories or carbohydrates 4 in these or much cholesterol 5 or sugar either.
Giorgio: Look again. The serving size is one cookie. There are 40 cookies in each container.
Amy: Not everything has to be healthy and good for me.
Giorgio: No, but you have to get your protein and fiber 6 from somewhere. If you look at the percent daily value on the things you’re eating, you’re not getting the nutrients 7, vitamins, and minerals your body needs.
Amy: This isn’t all I eat. I eat other things, too.
Giorgio: Like pizza, hamburgers, and fries?
Amy: I might not have the best diet, but I’m healthy as a horse.
Giorgio: Maybe a horse ready to be put out to pasture!
