Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. If I'm honest though, that wasn't always true.

What are the first things I should pay attention to when reading a food label?
Start by looking at the ingredients on a food label. The first few ingredients will help you distinguish if the item is actually good for you, or if the label is just ‘selling’ the product as healthy.
