do you read nutrition labels when you buy food at the grocery store? or at fast food places and restaurants?

and if you do, what kind of stuff do you check?

i look at them all the time when i buy stuff or go out to eat and i check most of the label.

Religiously. I have to watch my sodium intake, so I absolutely must read nutrition labels. It's astounding how much sodium there is in most food, particularly canned food and deli meat. I'm making most things from scratch now, using fresh ingredients. The toughest thing to get used to was not using pasta sauce from a jar. It was so convenient. I've learned to prefer the taste of the homemade sauce though. I miss roast beef sandwiches as well.
