Translating Nutritional Labels Info 2009/3/15 22:20
What is the kanji for:
a) Low fat milk?
b) Non-fat milk?

Also, is there a web site or something that gives the Japanese kanji equivalents (with English translation) of dietary/nutritional labels?

I want to understand the labels so as to be sure of what I'm eating for health reasons.

Thank you!

Could you also tell me if my furigana translations below are correct, so I can request the items if not on display?

Low fat milk = 低脂肪(ていしぼう)牛乳
(fat 0.5% to 1.5%)

Non-fat milk? = 無(む)脂肪牛乳
(fat under 0.5%)

Yes, they are correct! :)

低脂肪 and 無脂肪 sometimes mentioend as 「ローファット」「ノーファット」too.
