INGREDIENTS OF THE DAY: None
We’re talking about food labels --- one of the greatest gifts provided to the American people by their government, i.e., the Nutrition Facts Label. Join Mel as he takes a deep dive into the arcane and murky world of the Code of Federal Regulation, a realm so obscure that only an expert speaker in governese can make sense of it. He tries … he fails … but still manages to deliver some useful information about that iconic, dense, and ubiquitous food label.
