Last calendar month an article inwards the New York Times reported that a seismic shift inwards how people eat has caused large nutrient companies to scramble. Manufacturers are responding yesteryear changing their ingredients to reverberate the demand for healthier food.
I originally wrote most the dangers of manufactured food, peculiarly inwards breakfast cereals, dorsum inwards 2011 called The (Mad) Science of Food Packaging.
Let's await at what is coming out of the inquiry labs of the nutrient companies as well as celebrate the victories consumers convey achieved.
In Food Makers Try to Paint With Nature's Palette, the Wall Street Journal reported how nutrient companies were replacing artificial ingredients amongst existent nutrient alternatives inwards answer to consumer demands for ingredients they powerfulness "find inwards their ain pantries." The article sites General Mills' sense to alter the artificial colors inwards Trix, a kid's breakfast cereal. The lastly color palette is minus 2 colors as well as looks real unlike from the un-natural colors of the artificially colored version, only instantly appears wholesome as well as natural. H5N1 pace inwards the correct direction.
Next we'd similar to run across them labeling whatever genetically modified ingredients, such equally corn inwards the Trix. Or improve yet, replacing amongst non-GMO sourced ingredients as well as getting verified yesteryear the non-GMO project.
In my blog The (Mad) Science of Food Packaging, I focussed on Kellogg's Froot Loops. Unfortunately Kellogg's is i twelvemonth behind the progress of General Mills. They withal exhibit the same artificial ingredients. Oh wait... I run across they changed Blue #2 to Blue #1. You tin run across the departure betwixt artificial (Froot Loops inwards the championship image) as well as natural (above inwards the Trix ikon as well as labeling).
I've copied the ingredients below:
Froot Loops Ingredients: Sugar, corn flour blend (whole grain xanthous corn flour, degerminated xanthous corn flour), wheat flour, whole grain oat flour, oat fiber, modified nutrient starch, soluble corn fiber, contains 2% or less of hydrogenated vegetable crude oil (coconut, soybean and/or cottonseed), salt, natural flavor, cherry-red 40, turmeric extract color, xanthous 6, blueish 1, annatto extract color, BHT for freshness.At whatever rate, nosotros convey made a difference. These changes are because of YOU! Give yourself a pat on the dorsum as well as maintain to vote with your wallet.
