Summary of Article # 1 -Six Meaningless Claims on Food Labels

According to the New York times, the article I read was about how marketers create or make food sound healthy and not fattening. The ingredients of a certain food product sometimes aren't true. The food product might say "real cheese" but it's actually not real cheese. They use unhealthy stuff than can make the person who eats it, health bad. Also sometimes they lie about how little sugar they put in a certain food product, which they actually put more than they listed on the nutrition label.
What I think the author's purpose is for writing this article is to tell people that the food they eat aren't really what they expect. The information listed on the food product are fake. The producers make fake labels so people can think the food actually contains the information listed on the labels. Which they don't. Also the author want to tell us that the ingredients in the food product are not made from real food but fake. They combine certain ingredients to make it look like it was from the real food product.
When I read this article I was flabbergasted because they use fake ingredients to make a food product. What if someone need's more fiber in their body, and if they eat a food product that says it has a lot of fiber which the fiber isn't real it can even damage their health even more! This article just makes me melancholy because our human race are just eating fake stuff and not real. But it's not entirely fake, but most of it is.
