THE REFERENCE SHELF
Ingredients & labels

Read the full ingredients, not only the front promise
A short front-panel phrase cannot stand in for the recipe.

Contains and facility statements are separate label information
Keep the exact selected allergen wording rather than a general brand assumption.

No added sugar is not the same as zero total sugars
The two Nutrition Facts fields describe different information.

Read sugar alcohols without inventing a tolerance limit
An ingredient type and its labeled amount need the exact recipe.
