A lot of pre-packaged foods are taken for granted. Shoppers accept the products name on the can or box without ever wondering what's inside it, It's easy to find out - just read the label. The, ingredi- ents are listed there in descending order of pro- portion. Here's an example. See if you can guess the name of the product from the list of ingredients: beef broth, potatoes, beef, carrots, modified food starch, corn flour, beef fat, salt, tomato paste, sugar, caramel colour- ings and flavouring. If you thought it was called beef broth or beef and potato broth, you were logical but wrong. The manufacturer calls it beef stew, even though it contains more broth and potatoes than beef. So it makes good sense to read the lab.el carefully. Shoppers are becoming familiar with the "Best Before" label or tag which carries a date and is required on most dairy products, packed meats and baked goods. If the label says "Best Before DE 15" it means simply that the item will be fresh at least until December 15. The months of the year are easily recognized by their two-letter abbreviations. If the date on the goods has passed, it doesn't necessarily mean the food isn't edible. Nor does it mean the storeleper must remove it fron thL shelf. But it does mean that the' food has passed its peak in freshness. The grading labels found on meat, poultry and eggs can often save you money. When buying these items, think about how you're going to use them. Chances are you won't need the higher, more expensive grades. While the physical character of the goods may differ according to grade, the nutritional value is the same. Beef, for example, is graded by government inspectors on the basis of color, firmness, grain and leanness. The most common grades seen at meat counter:, are Canada A and Canada B. Poultry has three common grades: Canada Grade A (Red;, Canada Grade B (Blue), and Canada Grade Utility (Blue). Grade B birds may -not be as well fattened as Grade A, and Utility fowl may be missing a leg or wing but could be Grade A in all other respects. If you're not cooking for appearances, the lower grades can be a tasty bargain. Eggs are graded too, but unfortunately many super- markets carry only the top grade. If you want other grades,, you might have to shop around for a store or farmers' market that sells them. You'll find them labelled Canada Al, Canada A or Canada B. All of them lutist be free from dis- coloured yolks arid blood spots. The biggest distinc- tion among the grades is the shape of the shell. Canada B eggs aren't as perfectly formed as the others, but it you use them for cooking purposes or scrambling, ,you won't find any difference in the final dish - and you'll
