Ag Research Service Food SearchWant to know what’s in the foods you eat? USDA’s Agricultural Research Service, Food Survey Research Group (say that 3 times real fast) just introduced a new online search tool today that let’s you find out all the food ingredient information you could ask for. It’s called “What’s In The Foods You Eat.” You can run it online or download the search tool to your computer.

This assumes you want to know the answers. Let’s say you’ve just washed down a 16 oz. T-bone with a couple bottles of beer. Do you really want to know this?

Actually they introduced it to dieticians today in St. Louis at the American Dietetic Association convention. I’m sure those folks need a resource like this to provide good information to their clients.
