We're trying to be more health conscious this year and my daughter is taking a fit and well class in college, so we are reading labels a lot. Well, I pulled a few items from my pantry that I thought were "healthy" and let me tell you, I was wrong.
1. Whole berry cranberry sauce. It's fruit, it has to be good for you. But it has high fructose corn syrup and corn syrup. Two times!!
2. Roasted Raspberry Chipotle Sauce. Again with the sugar and smoke flavorings. Did someone hold the sauce over a campfire? Blow cigarette smoke into it? How is smoke flavoring natural??
3. Tuna fish. Contains soy? HUH?? I don't get that, but they are nice enough to notify me that the can contains fish!
4. Pumpkin spice flavored jello instant pudding. I like to sprinkle that into my coffee as flavoring. It contains disodium phosphate, tetrasodium pyrophosphate, BHA and other things.
So, we will try to buy things that are easily pronounced. I have chemicals that I can read easier!
