How do you know if the food you're eating is good for you...?

Well, it doesn't come in a box and is definately NOT blue.

I am getting sick of the commercials for Presidents' Choice "Blue Menu". They have a line of food products in blue boxes and convey in their messages that since it's in a blue box that it means it's good for you.

I don't have a problem with a supermarket brand trying to help people make healthier choices, but to say that because it's in a blue box people shouldn't think about why it might be a better choice...just grab the box, rip it open and heat it up. It's the same with the "Smart Spot" on Pepsico products; because there's a green dot on it means it's a healthier choice. I really hope people who purchase these items read the nutritional information and ingredient list to further help themselves understand healthy food choices.

So how do you know if the food you're eating is good for you? It rarely comes in a box, the ingredient list can be read by a 6-year old, and it is as fresh as possible. Told you, not blue.
