Nutrition Facts

Did you know Canada.. on March 27 I attended a webinar on Nutrition Facts. The panelists included Phyllis Tanaka from Food & Consumer Products of Canada (FCPC), Dr. Hasan Hutchison from Health Canada Office of Nutrition Policy and Promotion and Sue Mah, a registered dietician and owner of Nutrition Solutions.

We learned about how Canadians make more informed food choices by using the quickest and simplest tool available - the % Daily Value found on the Nutrition Facts table.

The % Daily Value is a quick and easy way for you to know if a packaged food contains a little or a lot of a nutrient. This information will help you when choosing and deciding between products.

Check out the Nutrition Facts Education Campaign (NFEC), a collaboration of Health Canada and Food & Consumer Products of Canada.








I was sent an awesome bag of goodies filled with products that are displaying and supporting the % Daily Value found on the Nutrition Facts table. It's everyday food that you can find this information on, like fruit snacks for the kids, taco kits, breakfast shakes, yogurt, peanut butter cups and cereal.

I also received an awesome pack of coupons and wanted to share some of them with readers! Enter below for your chance to win a great pack of coupons for products that support the % Daily Value found on the Nutrition Facts table and we'll include one of our Mabel's Labels I LOVE Canada teeny tags as well!
