Reading Labels

The cornerstone of the Zone is reading your labels accurately. Make sure you subtract out your dietary fiber from your overall carbohydrate total. The above label would be as follows:
Fat- 3 blocks of fat per serving
Carbohydrate- (22g-9g=13 g) 1 1/2 blocks of carbs per serving
Protein- 3 1/2 blocks per serving

    My household is still buzzing about the chicken salad. Thanks for putting this together.

    I'm interested in the label-reading... 8g of fat equals 3 fat blocks? in other words, how many grams of fat can i have for one block? i think i've been going WAY over.
