Re: Food Additives in Campbell and Prego
I just wanted to point out that many canned soups like Progresso contain MSG, I just learned that last week, I don't know about Campbells and Prego.
Another problem besides additives are the genetically modified foods (GMO's) in the U.S., the largest percentage of modification is in soy, corn, canola oil, and cotton. About 70% of the foods in the supermarket contain GMO's. Products with corn starch, soy lecithin, soybean oil, cottonseed oil, and many other derivatives of the four should be avoided. Foods containing GMO's are banned in Europe, I don't know about Thailand.
Foods with the organic label are not allowed to contain GMO's. Trader Joe's
and Whole Foods brands do not contain GMO's. BTW, I had Healthy Choice Minestrone
Soup for lunch, I used half the can and added water, kale, and white beans, it cuts down on the expense to save the other half for another time.
It is really terrible that some restaurants in New York are switching from using trans-fats (forced to switch by NY state) to soybean oil, they are switching an unhealthy fat for a genectically modified fat that is also unhealthy!
Everyone should buy healthy foods and eat at home!
