Do you shop at Vons or Safeway?

[Guest guest]

Hi guys

Do you shop at Safeway or Vons and use their Club card for

discounts. If you do, of course you know they are tracking your

purchases. They now have a site that is kinda interesting and at

least YOU can receive some benefit from your " tracked history " it is

called Foodflex

www.vons.com/foodflex

I think www.foodflex.com works too.

You can go there and register, within 24 hours you can view purchase

charts that track nutrition values of the food you have been

purchasing for the last 6 months. It is interesting to check if you

have a high protein/low carb purchasing profile! You can also check

on vitamins...like are your purchases high in Calcium, B12, zinc,

Vitamin C, potassium???....the list goes on. It can also offer

alternatives to some products. For example if your purchases are

high in Heart UN-healthy trans-fats then you can ask for alternatives

to those biscuits!

I like looking at nutritional values in food and learning, especially

when it has a direct link to what I'm eating... thought some of you

might be interested also.
