Why are food companies so hesitant and worried about adding dietary information to their products?
Oct 26th
Sure, some might be afraid that if they do reveal how unhealthy their food actually is, customers might be unwilling to buy their products.
But cigarette companies have been forced for years to disclose to customers how bad their products are, and they aren’t short of a penny.
What they lose in customers, they would make up in goodwill.
What do you think? I myself think that companies shouldn’t be forced to reveal exactly what is in their products. If customers want to eat rubbish, let them.

Oct 19th
I’d prefer the food to be healthy.
It will be from Friday evening to Sunday night. There are 5 people. One is allergic to tomatoes. I have already plans for Friday and Sunday dinners but everything else is open.
On Saturday I’d prefer something simple to make that can be eaten while watching. And of course I need some snack and breakfast ideas for Saturday and Sunday.
Can food companies lie about vitamin content?
Oct 19th
I ask because i have this raw cacao powder that is like obsessing about how much magnesium it has all over the bag, but it doesn’t even list magnesium in the nutritional facts. Another example, I always hear about how many B vitamins almonds have, but i have some almond butter right here, and it doesn’t contain any of the B vitamins. I’ve noticed this many times throughout my life… I only eat organic food if that helps.
