Consumer responsibility Consumers need to tread cautiously in the
market place. While buying a product, ask yourself these questions :
Do you really need this product? For how long would you like to use it? Will it
last as long as you would like it to? What are the health fallout of that product? If
it is a food product, does it give you any health benefits? Check the labeling of the product to see the nutritional chart of the product.
