If the shelf tag has no stars, it simply means one of two things:
1. The food doesn't meet the nutritional criteria for a Guiding Star. Sweetbay encourages you to read the Nutrition Facts label to help you make informed choices that work best for you and your family. Remember to balance the foods you love with a healthy, active lifestyle.
2. The food is not rated by Guiding Stars. For example, the below categories were not rated by Guiding Stars for various reasons.
- Bottled Water no calories
- Coffee, Tea, Spices not included in Dietary Guidelines for Americans or other official recommendations
- Products with 5 calories or fewer per manufacturer serving size not a significant source of nutrients
- Alcoholic Beverages not included in Dietary Guidelines for Americans or other official recommendations
