Recently I've been looking for foods rich in magnesium to experiment with personal nutrition. Although I had found several sources that sited the rich magnesium content of black beans, when I found several brands of the beans at the store, I noticed none of the nutritional labels mentioned magnesium, yet iron (anther trace element) was listed on all of them. Why is this? What determines what goes on a nutritional label and what doesn't? I find it annoying that I have to research my food at a distance from the point of sale :grumpy:
I have a theory about the no doubt lengthy listing of absolutely everything of human nutritional value on a food label, but that's all I can think of.
Sorry if I sound entitled :). (it's probably the case that I'm just being entitled heh..)
