We head to the newly renovated Market City Foodland to talk about food labels. What to look for and how to read them.

Well they're on everything you buy to eat, food labels. But how do we make sense of them when it comes to buying what's best for us to eat?

Ramsay headed to the newly renovated Market City Foodland for this week's HMSA Sunny Side Up.

Sally Belles from the Hawaii Dietetic Association gave us these things to look for when read food

  • Check serving size
  • Use the "5-20 rule"
  • <300 mg cholesterol / day
  • <2400 mg sodium / day
  • <30 % fat / total cal. (1500=50g fat)
