Title: USA 60 Minutes report on chemical flavour making process
Post by: Vivaroo on November 29, 2011, 11:19:53 pm

Thought you might be interested in this segment on the food industry chemical flavours.

Is that scary to you?
I feel blessed that if I want a citrus flavour I'll just eat an orange rather than buy a chemical laden flavoured drink.

Oh I agree... I was thinking all the way through this - why don't they promote the fresh natural food they are trying to emulate?  Mustn't be enough money in it!

Well that was scary! All I could think was "make your own food! Eat some real fruit!"
