Nonfat

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

The terms nonfat or fat free are nutrient content claims regulated by the FDA for use on food labels. To say on the label that a food is "nonfat" has a specific regulatory meaning, namely that a product contains no amount of, or only trivial or "physiologically inconsequential" amounts of, fat.

For a product to be labeled "nonfat", "fat free" or "skim" (as in milk), it must contain less than 0.5 grams of fat per serving.
