Dear Large Food/Drink Companies,
What is wrong with sugar?
Oh, I know that some people can’t have sugar for various reasons, but most of those folks can’t have High Fructose Corn Syrup either, and that never stopped you from using that ingredient. Did it ever occur to you that there are people out there who are allergic to those fake sweeteners you so adore? People that get sick if you change ingredients without warning?
Apparently not, since this has happened with my favorite drink and my favorite gum so far. Now I have to check the ingredients list every time I buy something, even if it’s the same thing each time.
On the subject of additives, what is the deal with MSG? Why does it have to be in everything? Are you trying to raise the sodium level in everything, or are you just trying to make me sick? You don’t even label things properly sometimes. You just sneak it in under “Natural Seasonings” or some such obfuscatory term.
Stop trying to poison me!
Signed,
