翻译&注解：心月伊然http://t1.g.hjfile.cn/listen/201311/201311190626296059834.mp3And that is exactly the problem that my last big thinker wants to solve. Michael Jacobson is the grand old man of food labels. He's executive director of the watchdog group Center for Science in the Public Interest.
20 years ago, we led the effort to get nutrition facts labels on foods. And now they're there, everybody loves them. But they haven't had much of impact on the American diet.
So Jacobson now says we don't need more fine print about sodium and sugar. We need something that grabs people's attention.
A label that would spur them to choose healthier foods.
Jacobson wants to put some sort of symbol or a number right on the front of the package that gives food a grade. You'd give food credit for all the good stuff, vitamins and minerals. You'd take away points for trans fat, salt, saturated fat.
And you come up with a red dot or the number 50, or whatever.而这正是我最后一位智囊想要解决的问题。迈克尔·雅各布森是食品标签的元老。他是公共利益科学监察中心的执行董事。
20年前，我们为食品标签注明营养成分而努力。现在，标签已经注明营养成分，大家都很喜欢。但他们对美国人的饮食习惯没有太大的影响。
所以雅各布森说，我们不需要更多关于纳和糖的细则。我们需要的是能吸引人们注意力的东西。
激励他们选择更健康食物的标签。
雅各布森希望用某种符号或数字在包装的前面给食物分级别。所有的好东西，维生素和矿物质你就给食物信誉。反式脂肪，盐，饱和脂肪你就减分。
可以用红点啊，数字50啊，还是其他什么东西。
