Can You Tell From the Label?

Do you read labels? This label is from a popular oven-ready frozen lasagna dish. What can you learn from the label? This particular package looks better than some!

We should each be able to know several things about these ingredients:
   * Can I pronounce it?
   * Why is it in my dinner? (flavor enhancement, preservative, etc.)
   *  Does it have any cummulative health effect?   +/-
   * If I was making this dish, would I be able to indentify each ingredient?

"To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded."~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Acts of creation are ordinarily reserved for gods and poets, but humbler folk may circumvent this restriction if they know how. To plant a pine, for example, one need be neither god nor poet; one need only own a shovel. By virtue of this curious loophole in the rules, any clodhopper may say: Let there be a tree - and there will be one.” ― Aldo Leopold
"When tillage begins, other arts follow. The farmers, therefore, are the founders of human civilization. " - Daniel Webster
“There are two spiritual dangers in not owning a farm. One is the danger of supposing that breakfast comes from the grocery, and the other that heat comes from the furnace.” ― Aldo Leopold
“Don't eat anything your great-grandmother wouldn't recognize as food.” Michael Pollan
