How many of you have always bought your favorite food...UNTIL you started
reading the labels? <perhaps as you got older?>

Spam for me-never touched it again (I was a college student then-cheap
food).

The ingredients in many of my favorite pastry treats. The ones I
couldn't pronounce.

Been a label-reader for years. Matter of making a choice, even though
the ingredients would be very comfortable on any lab shelf
Anyway, if the average apple had its chemical constituents listed, it
wouldn't sound all that edible either LOL.

Armor Pork Brains in Milk Gravy.

The ingredients are basically fatty ham. Knowing that, it's how they
can make it taste so unlike ham that scares me away from eating it.

Hormel Potted Meat. It tasted great as a room temperature spread on a
sandwich to an unsuspecting young man. After too long, I read the
ingredients section of the label. I haven't shopped for that nasty s**t
for forty years. I brush my tongue daily in remembrance of that awful
time in my life. But it tasted great!

Hear hear! I've been reading labels for years, too. It started when my
mother was diagnosed in the 1980's with cholesterol blockages in her legs
(for which she had surgery and nearly lost her foot). Then I started paying
attention to what I bought. Reading label contents is such a simple thing
to do.

Well, most of my favorite foods don't have labels or ingredients.

I did start looking at sour cream cartons, and I was unsurprised to
find that
my preferred brand (Breakstone's) has a very short list. Made it much
easier
for me to reach for what I like even though it costs a bit more. I'm
the same
way about yogurt. Why the hell does yogurt need gelatin?

If I were serious about labels, though, I wouldn't hit the snack
machine in the
break room. Those jalapeno Doritos are pretty seductive at 3pm.

I had an oatmeal cookie today, purchased at Zingerman's bakehouse.
They use the same ingredients that I would if I baked them at home
(although they overbake them; I definitely prefer soft cookies).

There's a tortilla maker here in Ann Arbor; I want to try their chips
(plain).
