“There
may
be
no
place
on
the
planet
more
daunting
than
the
American
supermarket.
From
the
produce
section
to
the
frozen‐food
aisle,
the
modern‐day
market
is
loaded
with
50,000
food
choices,
all
vying
for
your
hard‐earned
money.
That's
why
we
created
the
Eat
This,
Not
That!
Supermarket
Survival
Guide,
…
to
help
you
cut
through
marketing
mysteries
and
food‐label
lies
in
order
to
make
the
smart
choices.
Some
are
conspicuous
calorie
bombs,
others
are
junk
food
masquerading
as
healthy
food.”
Men’s
Health
Magazine
has
a
piece
on
some
of
the
30
worst

8. Matching:
Match
the
following
lipids
with
their

difference
between
saturated
and
unsaturated

required
each
day
and
allotment
of
calories
to
fats.
