Ex: a bag of chips, cookies, carrots, whatever. In your opinion, does it affect the amount of food you eat , in comparison to just opening up a bag and eating? Not just for dieters, but for people who eat junk food and health food alike.

for me, if it's different from what I expected, it will affect it. For example, if I was planning to eat an entire big cookie, then I see that it has 700 calories and 30 grams of fat, I'll change my mind and only eat a part (or none!). Or if I think some chips will have 200 calories for a 1/2 cup, but they actually only have 50, then I might eat a little more than I had planned.

Until I became I calorie counter, I never read labels. Now I read them all the time and yes it does effect what I buy and what I will eat. For instance, I will not buy anything that has corn syrup in it.

Yes, it definitely affects how much I eat. I check the serving size, too because sometimes I think, 350 calories and 10 grams of fat isn't so bad for a can of soup, and then the can is 2 servings. So I'll just eat something else. Really, who's going to open a can of say, Progresso Soup, and eat half. You'll still be hungry.

i read the label after consuming the food. no it does not affect how much i eat of it. but if i was buying similar things, and i have no idea what they both taste like, i choose the lighter option (i mean if there is normal tortilla or light tortilla..i choose the lighter one) but i feel embarrassed of reading the label in the supermarket.. i think people will look at me and think oh she's on a diet..and it makes me take ages as it's really slow to read every label that i buy! i'd never get out of the supermarket! i'd live there
