Big C Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 I had "strawberries" and cream oats for breakfast today, but when I poured it in a bowl one of the "strawberry" pieces looked weird (suspiciously like a piece of apple). So, I looked at the ingredient list and it said (and I paraphrase slightly) "the "strawberry" bits that you thought were real pieces of actual "strawberry" are actually crappy pieces of dried, painted, and flavored bits of apple...sorry for the inconvienience". Why not just charge the extra five cents and use real strawberries? This is only one example of how companies lie about their products. There are brands of lemonade that use no real lemon juice, and pumpkin flavored ice cream with no pumpkin. Look in your pantry, and post if there are any products where the main ingredient is not in the ingredient list. If you look, I think you'll be surprised at how many there are. Quote

Super User K_Mac Posted October 21, 2015 Super User Posted October 21, 2015 Reading the list of ingredients of almost any packaged food will make a man cry. Breakfast cereals are among the worst offenders. Just reading the "nutritional" information is enough to cause weight gain and other physical problems... Quote

Super User A-Jay Posted October 21, 2015 Super User Posted October 21, 2015 I believe in products that don't come with an ingredient list. Like Apples & Strawberries for instance. Really cuts down on the confusion. Don't forget to wash them. A-Jay 6 Quote

Super User Senko lover Posted October 21, 2015 Super User Posted October 21, 2015 My pet peeve is when you think you're buying ice cream and instead the package says, "Dairy Dessert." Sheesh. Quote
Super User HoosierHawgs Posted October 21, 2015 Super User Posted October 21, 2015 My pet peeve is when you think you're buying ice cream and instead the package says, "Dairy Dessert." Sheesh.Its the milk content. You have to have a certain milk content to be considered real ice cream or real cheese. 1 Quote
