Subject: Calorie Location and Portion Size

Docket # 2004N-0463 
I believe that all consumers of pre-packaged goods are competent on locating the nutritional information and are aware to look for calories.  It may help if they are in bold lettering, but I don't feel any particular change to location needs to be made. 


Docket # 2004N-0456 
As a person always watching my waistline and diet, I believe it would be in the best interest of the consumer to label pre-packaged foods reasonably consumed in one eating occasion to state the nutritional information for the entire package.  Very few people eat part of a candy bar, or drink a portion of soda.  Having the entire caloric content on the label provides a more accurate and clear understanding of consequences of personal choices.
