when you food shop, do you look at the ingredients of each item before you put it in the cart?

Re: when you food shop, do you look at the ingredients of each item before you put it in the cart?

yeah, I do. I also try to avoid high fructose corn syrup. I also look at fiber, protein, and of course fat & calories.

But somehow those damn Oreos always find a way in my basket!

Re: when you food shop, do you look at the ingredients of each item before you put it in the cart?

no, not really, but only because there's no time.

And very often DH does the grocery shopping -- he doesn't care what's in the ingredients are.

Nope-Im sure its not good to not look but if I want somehting I gotta have it

Re: when you food shop, do you look at the ingredients of each item before you put it in the cart?

I would love to be able to buy food based off ingredients and not for the price. What food being so expensive, I literally don't even bother. Its either eat something that isn't great for you or eat nothing but salads with no dressing. If money were better, I would be on an all natural diet.

Re: when you food shop, do you look at the ingredients of each item before you put it in the cart?

Not usually but I tend tomake pretty healthy food choices anyway. When it coems to food thats not healthy lunlike mmy usual fruits, veggies, lean meants, and fibers, I don't see the point in looking at the labels.

If I am holding up a box of Oreos close enough to carress it, I am going to end up eating the damn things anyway so no sense in torturing myself with whats in themm. Its sinful goodness and therefore I shouldn't be eating them. but I do!

never, oh well!

Re: when you food shop, do you look at the ingredients of each item before you put it in the cart?

When I was doing WW, and I was counting points, I used to walk around the store with my points calculator, checking the calories, fat & fiber to see if it was 'worth spending points on'!

That went out the window a long time ago ....

So, no, I don't look at the ingredients of things anymore.

Re: when you food shop, do you look at the ingredients of each item before you put it in the cart?

i never look, I'm usually speed shopping and I mostly just buy whatever is the cheapest! probably not the healthiest philosophy, but oh well.

Re: when you food shop, do you look at the ingredients of each item before you put it in the cart?

No, I don't usually buy too many processed foods. I try to stick to fruit and veggies.

Re: when you food shop, do you look at the ingredients of each item before you put it in the cart?

Yeap i always looks at the ingredients. I dont buy items that have high fructose corn syrup, artificial crap, and preservatives.

Re: when you food shop, do you look at the ingredients of each item before you put it in the cart?

nope, becuase I don't really buy pre-packaged food We buy organic dairy, cheese from a real cheese shop (always less than 5 ingredients), raw meat, veggies and fruit, and bread from a bakery (once again, less than 5 ingredients).

My few preggo cravings (really unhealthy stuff) are caf-free coca cola and carvel saucers. don't WANT to know the ingredients.... it's all bad bad bad bad bad......

Re: when you food shop, do you look at the ingredients of each item before you put it in the cart?

I look for sugar, high fructose corn syrup and anything considered a carb as well as the carbohydrate count (DH and I do low carb)

Re: when you food shop, do you look at the ingredients of each item before you put it in the cart?

I try...I find w/WW, I mostly shop the perimeters of the store--the produce, meats, dairy, etc. I buy DH cookies and pretzels (and I'm sure there's not such great things in them) but we don't have many other snacks in the house.

I never look at the ingredients. But then again, we don't buy anything unhealthy,except maybe Pecan Sandies. Their my favorite!! Otherwise we eat pretty healthy. I do look at the expiration date though!!
