Maamoul Cookies: The Quality You Can Trust

Maamoul Cookies: The Quality You Can Trust

[ 0 ] January 2, 2012 |

I have reviewed Lofthouse Frosted Sugar Cookies a number of times. They are produced in the USA in slightly different manner (mostly by color) by any occasion like Valentine’s Day (rose), St. Patrick’ Day (green), Back to School  (red) event or Christmas but they all are essentially the same: some 40 (!) ingredients including 14 […]

A year of 2011 is expiring and this is a good time to take a look backward in order to better understand the way walked. The DyeDiet has developed an original food risk and nutrition estimation approach designed to help the consumers to sort out risky foods in favor of healthier more nutritious products. As […]

Mayfair Cane with motor oil

[ 1 ] December 10, 2011 |

Original candy cane was simply a stick of pure white sugar. Unfortunately, modern candies are “improved” by deceptive artificial colorants, flavors and other non-nutritious additives. Therefore while the Holiday Season, you and your children have higher chances to be exposed to those problematic food additives. Please read a fresh article about what I call the […]

DyeDiet Recommended: This is nuts!

DyeDiet Recommended: This is nuts!

[ 0 ] November 21, 2011 |

Nuts  are like natural “health pills” containing high loadings of healthy fats, carbohydrates, proteins, fibers, antioxidants and vital micro-nutrients hard to find elsewhere. Health benefits of nuts include protection from coronary heart disease, help lower blood LDL, have low glycemic index and help increase longevity. Raw nuts are healthier than roasted ones because roasting decreases […]

Coffee-Mate creamer: Why not milk?

Clean air, fresh water and fertile land are what humanity needs for its survival. There is now too much carbon dioxide in the air, too much detergents, dioxins, pesticides and antibiotics in the water and we have exhausted soil which is no longer capable to support plant germination.  How do we manage to stay healthy?

Sparkling Ice: New trend, Old tricks

Sparkling Ice: New trend, Old tricks

[ 10 ] November 12, 2011 |

This is a good new trend – to satisfy consumer’s demand for healthy foods and soft drinks. Indeed, it looks like the CSPI‘s Food Day Message Reaches Millions! Here is another “ZERO calories” beverage with a vitamin composition similar to the recently reviewed Propel ZERO. But the old trick is an artificial food colorant, FD&C […]

Gummi Bears: Fake Fruits

[ 3 ] November 9, 2011 |

There is seemingly nothing wrong with eating gelatin-based rubbery-textured sweet gummies. After all, while gelatin  has less nutritional value than many other protein sources, it is still a nutrient, an animal-derived structural protein. But watch out when you read something like this: Naturally and Artificially Flavored; Wild ’n Fruity; 6 Fruity Flavors; Made with Real […]

I find it very unfortunate for the American children and disgraceful for the food manufacturers that most of the candies (e. g., like Jolly Rancher) you can buy at Walmart, convenience stores and many grocery stores everywhere in the USA are nothing else but primitive and nasty stuff like these Blow Pop Charms: DyeDiet Doesn’t […]

Fruit Gushers: The fruit fraud continues

[ 6 ] October 29, 2011 |

Stated value I feel sorry for the General Mills Sales, Inc., (Minneapolis, USA) who worked so hard trying to market their nasty “fruit fraud” product to our children. Here it is, Fruit Gushers – Mood MorphersTM (Yes… See the CSPI‘s document: Diet, ADHD and Behavior). The label screams: New! The Tongue Tells It All! FRUIT […]

Propel Zero: Sucralose is not a solution

Propel Zero: Sucralose is not a solution

[ 3 ] October 26, 2011 |

“ZERO” in a name or on the front of a label is just another “hook” for those of us who still look for silver bullets and magic pills. And I can understand why… According to the Harvard School of Public Health:  “Every day, the government’s food stamp program buys Americans 20 million servings of soda, […]
