# 1993 VHS • Shopping with Susan Powter 60 FPS

Shopping with Susan Powter is a consumer education video hosted by fitness advocate Susan Powter, structured around her Stop the Insanity philosophy of eating, breathing, and moving. The program opens in Powter's kitchen, where she leads a kitchen defat segment, clearing out high-fat staples and replacing them with lower-fat alternatives while demonstrating that the substitutions do not require deprivation. The main segment takes viewers on an aisle-by-aisle grocery store tour, where Powter teaches her fat formula: fat grams divided by total calories multiplied by 100 yields fat percentage. She uses this formula on product labels throughout the store to help viewers make informed choices. After the shopping trip, Powter returns to the kitchen to review and organize what was purchased, demonstrating that a neighborhood market can stock a complete low-fat pantry including frozen foods and low-fat potato chips. A typical breakfast, lunch, and dinner menu is shown. The program closes with a live audience Q and A session in which Powter answers commonly asked questions and reiterates the three-pillar framework: eat, breathe, and move. Running approximately 40 minutes. Products from the era of Powter's highest national visibility following Stop the Insanity.
