Sometimes on sunday nights when im bored i like to watch 60 Minutes with my dad and tonite a women was interviewing a man on fast food these days and how many calories everything is and how these companies can keep competeing with each other and it really astonished me. I mean this woman seemed like she actually had no interest in the questions she was asking and what the interview was virtually even about but as i noticed calories intake has such a higher power on what people look at when reading a nutrion label that it really is amazing how different food is. For example they went to subway who actually showed there calories on the menu and it was really weird that after this women got this relatively plain chicken sandwich it ended up to be around 700 calories. But what bugs me is that when looking at nutritional labels on food most people look at calories and at nothing else and thats how they judge what to eat. But then they dont look at the grams of trans fat or all these mystery chemicals that are really bad for you and even though a big salad may have more calories than a small french fry when looking at the actual nutritional value they cannot compete so i think the way american looks at dieting is all wrong
