It was brought up on another blog how serving sizes could be standardized to make it easier for consumers to make easier comparisons between foods. I thought this was an interesting point. Many cereals for example have different serving sizes to base the nutrients off of, so while one cereal may look 'better', the serving size is different and this can be confusing for those who are comparing the nutritional quality of some foods. I'm actually looking forward to how they will revise the labels and hopefully make them easier for consumers :) great tips!
