Book Description

January 1, 1999

Today's food shopper has changed -- and so has this indispensable guide!

Learn to navigate the exciting new world of food choices wherever you shop, with this fully revised and updated reference -- the portable supermarket in one convenient volume. From busy professionals who shop by car phone to parents looking for value without sacrificing nutrition -- anyone who does the family food shopping will reap the b\enefits of The Food Shopping Counter. Discover:

  • Caloric, fat, sodium, carbohydrate, and fiber values for more than 20,000 entries -- with no repeated item names as in other nutritional guides. Look for your favorite national and regional brand names as well as generic foods
  • More than 350 categories reflecting today's changing tastes -- thousands of natural, organic, and vegetarian brand names, take-out items, and more
  • Strategies for saving time and money every time you shop
  • Smart food-storage tips
  • How to interpret nutrition labels -- and how to make the best nutritional picks, aisle by aisle (you'll be surprised by what you find!)
  • A shopping list to stock your kitchen -- and beat the "there's nothing to eat" blues

    Shop with confidence -- with The Food Shopping Counter!
