With tens of thousands of products crammed into the walls of the neighborhood supermarket, trying to find a reliable snack, pantry product, or frozen dinner can be a serious challenge for the time-strained consumer. The Eat This, Not That! Supermarket Survival Guide changes all of that, offering discerning shoppers everywhere a simple plan for finding the healthiest foods for them and their families. Beyond homing in on the best and worst in the world of packaged foods, the Eat This, Not That! Supermarket Survival Guide scours the aisles to help you pick the most nutrient-packed produce, the leanest, tastiest cuts of meat, exotic cheeses that double as healthy snacks, and the best contaminant-free fish the ocean has to offer.

Product Description
Much like the waistlines of America, the aisles of your grocery store are straining under the weight of too much food. There are more than 40,000 products lining the shelves of your local supermarket, and with every product comes a whole new host of inflated label claims: “zero trans fat!” “Cholesterol free!” “Good source of 9 vitamins and minerals!” The problem is these claims are just as bogus as the hyped-up foods they’re trying to sell. That’s where Eat This, Not That! Supermarket Survival Guide comes in. It’s your best weapon against the food industry’s effort to obfuscate the truth about the food it’s selling. Building on the popular approach of the Eat This, Not That! book series, co-authors Dave Zinczenko and Matt Goudling have scoured the aisles of the supermarkets of America, and in so doing they’ve discovered that two seemingly similar packages can house foods with vastly different nutritional profiles. They’ve also folded in all-new material that will help you pick the most nutrient-packed produce; the leanest, tastiest cuts of meat; and the least contaminated seafood at the fish counter. In this book you’ll also find: - 11 Secrets the Food Industry Doesn’t Want You to Know
- 20 Worst Packaged Foods in America
- Answers to The 5 Most Important Questions About Organic Food
- The Ultimate Sandwich Selector
- The Snack Matrix
- The Food Additive Glossary
- And the extended chapter, Drink This, Not That!

I really like this book, it helps you to buy a product that is much better for you to eat the right food and at the same time to lose weight, at work there are a couple of people that have purchased this book and they really like it also.

This book is a handy guide to take along to the market.
Amazing information - a great eye opener!
Excellent book with excellent comparisons. March 1, 2010
Amber Locke (Seattle, WA)
I am into nutrition an didn't think I could learn much from these books, but I was wrong. They are compact, yet contain very important information from pesticides used, how to tell if fruit or veggies are ripe, the FDA, rodents and bugs in factories, nutritional information on product, and very good "eat this not that" comparisons.

No joke! To date I have lost 20lbs (and solely because of my dietary changes). This book opened my eyes to packaging trickery and what to look out for on labels. Now, I always read the labels on things I buy, actually purchased some of the suggested items in the book and switched to mostly organic fruits and veggies. Love this book! It's so informative and induces a lot of "Holy cow" moments...I couldn't put it down!

I thought these books were great until I looked at the Ice cream section and saw that Ben and Jerrys was selected as a good choice because it was trade compliant. It was actually selected over more healthy choices on the "not that" side. Thats not what I was looking for when I bought the book.
