Reading the Label: Juicy Juice - Kiwi Strawberry
1 comments Posted by A Family/Group Member at 2:50 PMThis one looks good so far. It contains 100% Juice and NO HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP
Ingredients (per label): Apple Juice, Grape Juice, Kiwi Juice and Strawberry Juice (water, juice concentrates), natural flavors, ascorbic acid(vitamin c), citric acid)
I must say I always wonder what exactly is "natural flavors" And I always laugh that for Kiwi Strawberry Juice the first juices listed are apple and grape
I am hoping to set an example for my family and speak out more. Ask questions that need to be asked. Will it make a difference? I truly don't know but for me it is better than just complaining.
Today when I was about to eat my salad I pulled out the Kraft Catalina Dressing to add to it. Before I did I decided to look and see what it had in it. I was surprised to see that the first ingredient listed was HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP - the first ingredient! It was followed by Tomato Puree, Soybean Oil, Vinegar, Salt, Water and some other stuff. By why did HFCS have to be the #1 ingredient. I decided to choose a different dressing.
I think maneuvered through the kraftfoods.com website and finally sent in this note:
I recently bought Kraft Catalina Dressing and was dismayed to find that HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP was listed as the number 1 ingredient. What steps are you taking to address serious issues concerning this ingredient. Until you start looking at health risks over profit I will no longer purchase this product
It is not my best letter but I'm at least I did something

What doesn't have High Fructose Corn Syrup in it?
0 comments Posted by A Family/Group Member at 1:32 PMI am finding that here in the USA it is hard to find products without High Fructose Corn Syrup in it and it is beyond frustrating. So you can say this blog was written out of frustration.
