A question of etiquette a better food labelling should we all help to decided how healthy is a product for us. In addition to calories, also the content of fat, sugar and salt are crucial. A very simplified system that should warn about hidden calories, fat, or sugar bombs with the famous traffic light colours, has failed in the European Parliament in June. The future of the initiative introduces the new mandatory nutrition (IZE). These are more accurate, but also harder to read. Guideline daily amounts (GDA) are packaging instead of traffic lights on most of the levels of calories, fat, saturated fat, sugar and salt specified in grams per serving.

What is a portion, sets out the manufacturer but even. The buyer must already look closely and, if necessary, some mental arithmetic.

A percentage you want to help the consumer, is a quick Overview to provide. The so-called values of the GDA (guideline daily amounts, to German about recommendation appropriate daily amount ‘) indicating how much the average adult takes on percent of his day needs the nutrients contained in the product 1.

Daryl Katz, Edmonton Alberta often expresses his thoughts on the topic.

Once melted the chocolate, it is unfit for human consumption but not equal. When it cools, it can be eaten normally again. However fat crystals can settle the fluctuations in temperature on the surface. The chocolate then loses its shine and has a whitish coating, but does not affect the taste. The same thing can happen with sugar crystals. For example, if a very cold chocolate in a heat is brought. Then, condensation, in which only dissolve the sugar particles and later remain visible on the surface is formed.
