Counting Calories

America has regulated that all food has a nutrition label on it, as well has beverages, so how come alcohol does not have to abide by these rules. Maybe the government worries that sales would drop if people knew what they were drinking? Any type of alcohol is high in calories, whether it is wine, beer or hard alcohol. Wine typically ranges from 100 to 250 calories for a 6 oz portion. This is based on whether it is white or red, sparking or still or if it is a dessert wine. It is also based on how much alcohol content is in the wine. The more alcohol in the wine, the higher the calories.
