Artificial sweeteners in dairy with no disclosure?

by Robin Garr » Wed Mar 06, 2013 10:40 pm

Should the corporate dairy industry be allowed to doctor milk and other dairy products with aspartame and Splenda and other chemical sweeteners without disclosing this adulteration to consumers? Believe it or not, this exact proposal is before the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, accompanied by heavy lobbying from Big Dairy. Angry yet? Click the link below to tell FDA what you think of this idea.

Do these dairy morons stay up at night just to think of more crappy adulterations they can make to normal products?

The request itself is wrapped in the language of "...it's good for the children!", which is always a sign that greed, falsehood, and perversion are the real motivations.

Thanks for posting this and the link, Robin. My comment has been submitted. As far as I'm concerned all ingredients should be on the label.
