Foods We Rate


While shopping at Sweetbay, you’ll find Guiding Stars on price tags on the shelf, produce signs, meat, poultry and seafood case signs, and on labels on fresh meat and bakery items throughout the store. In fact, our Guiding Stars program now rates all foods at Sweetbay Supermarkets that are a significant source of calories*. Learn more about how Guiding Stars works.

With the addition of the fats and oils ratings, our Guiding Stars program now rates all foods at Sweetbay that are a significant source of calories*.

If you see a food that doesn’t have a Guiding Stars shelf tag, it either:

  • Is a food category that is not rated*
  • Did not meet the nutritional criteria needed
    for a Guiding Star

Of course, you can still enjoy foods with no stars. Just make them a part of a balanced diet.
