ADDITIVE 320 - peanut butter....I've been doing some research on additives

[Trillian]

Peg they are really hard to find though. The dumb thing is that the sulphur is used to help them keep their colour as well, otherwise they wouldn't look as nice and palatable. I saw on a TV show once that the absolute max amount of dried apricots that a child should have is 1/4 of a half an apricot! It is really frustrating that nearly every single item in the health food isle contains either dodgy preservatives or soy!Defeats the purpose of it being in the health food isle if you ask me.

thats unreal! Its also really irresponsible of the lawmakers to allow it.

But tell me, whats wrong with soy?

I don't have a problem with soy as a fermented product, but when it is used as an additive to processed food to bulk out food, it is nasty stuff. Soy just isn't meant to be eaten in that form.
