Rethink the Food Label
About a week ago I saw online there was an unofficial contest to redesign the food label. Since this kinda goes right up my alley, and I don’t have a whole lot to do at the moment, I figured I’d submit something.
It should be pretty self-explanatory. I have the four icons/badges at the top with the thought food producers would start making foods that would meet those parameters so they could brand their products with the most badges. The ingredients list is at the top–organic ingredients are green and italicized, bad ingredients are bolded. The next section uses a little bit of data visualization and color coding with an easy to read grid below. The grid places the emphasis on the number/amount. And at the bottom is a representation of where the food falls on the glycemic index.
