Where can you find unsaturated fats on food labels?

Unsaturated fats can typically be found listed in the "Nutrition Facts" label on packaged foods. When you look at the label, there will be a section that breaks down the total fat content of the food into different types of fats. Unsaturated fats are generally categorized into two types: monounsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats.

To find unsaturated fats on food labels, follow these steps:

1. Look at the top of the Nutrition Facts label to find the “Total Fat” content, measured in grams. 2. Underneath the “Total Fat,” there should be a breakdown of fats that includes “Saturated Fat,” and often, “Trans Fat.” 3. The unsaturated fats (which are not always listed) can be calculated by subtracting the saturated and trans fats from the total fat. Some labels may also specify “Monounsaturated Fat” and “Polyunsaturated Fat” directly. 4. If the label specifies, check below the “Saturated Fat” and “Trans Fat” (if listed) for “Monounsaturated Fat” and “Polyunsaturated Fat” amounts.

Remember that not all food labels may list unsaturated fats explicitly, especially if the food is not a significant source of these fats. Additionally, the way these fats are listed can vary depending on the country and their food labeling regulations.
