Eat This, Not That

That is the title of a new book my DIL gave me.  A real eye-opener.  Details foods that we MAY think are good for us, but really aren't.  Tells us how to shop for healthy food.  How to read and interpret labels.  How to recognize deception in labeling. 

I knew some of this already (as I'm sure all of us dieters do).  But there is much that is new to me.

I recommend it to everyone who shops and eats.

we have this on a program here in ohio that shows us eat this not that....shows a food(s) that you think is good and then shows you all of the foods you can eat for the same amount of calories etc...quite shocking to see just how much more of the good foods you can have for the same amount of calories for the bad food(s). didn't know there was a book on it tho...

Hi there!

I have a copy of this book that I keep at work. It's actually been out for quite a while and, you're right, it's VERY eye-opening.  After reading some of those nutritional facts about those restaurants I've taken them off the list of places I'm willing to go eat. Some of these facts are shocking and it's obvious that these meals are a large part of us as a nation being so LARGE.

Edit:

I forgot to mention that I have used this book as a basis for one of my support group meetings. Everyone enjoyed guessing which meal was the better choice.

I get regular emails from this website.  Some of the food we thought would be ok or at least not too bad to eat are absolutely horrendous.  These little nuggets of information have made me think twice many times before eating something or buying something at the grocery store.

I tried looking on the website, www.eatthisnotthat.com and couldn't find a place to get e-mails. Can you tell me the site that send them to you.
Thanks

Try this address.  I just received an email from Eat This Not That today and this was the address.  Let me know if it works.

I just tried the above address and that's not it.  I'll check it out further and let you know.

Try www.eatthis.com
