Fit & Active nutritional labeling

I'm really grateful to ALDI for adding Guideline Daily Amounts at the bottom right-hand corner of every F&A product package. The inclusion of sodium content is especially helpful to me, as the I must cut back on sodium because of my high blood pressure.

I only wish that ALDI would display the fiber content on the front of the box. As a Weight Watchers member, fiber is one of the components we use to calculate the POINTS value of a product. I have to check the nutritional info on the back to get the fiber content now.

One more note to ALDI: Most national-brand "healthy" frozen meals (Smart Ones, Healthy Choice, Lean Cuisine, etc.) list the Weight Watchers POINTS value somewhere on the box!

My Bad!

I just realized that ALDI does include the fiber content on the front of the box - at least on the box that I looked at last night (I can't remember what product it was).

Listing the WW POINTS value would still be nice, though.

I think if a company want to put a WeightWatcher Points on their product then they have to pay fees to WeightWatchers.
