    Food Additives To Avoid

    As we're all moving away from the unnatural these days we look for the obvious in the list of ingredients for trans fats (aka partially hydrogenated oils), but there are some additives that the Center for Science in the Public Interest also suggests that we should avoid all together that may have fallen through the cracks amidst all the trans fat talks. Here are a few that caught my eye.

    I'd like to go ahead and mention that I hate these slideshows. Why take all that information and put it in a tiny box and make scroll down in order to read anything? And is it really necessary to have five or six different pages?!

    Seriously, there's no reason to put information in this format, it only makes it more difficult to absorb.

    I'm in the process of avoiding "Natural Flavor". Sure, it's "Natural", but they use it as an cover for too many things.

    I once bought a gingerbread mix, and was disappointed when the gingerbread didn't taste at all like ginger, and when I looked, ginger wasn't even listed as an ingredient! I emailed the company, who told me that the ginger was shoved under "natural flavors"...which happened to be near the very end of the list.
