And came up with a major corporation that I can sue.
The company: Kraft Foods
The product:
The how-to:
It starts innocently enough when I’m lured in by it’s tasty cream-cheese like flavoring, in simple to use spray format. Infact it helps me blow through crackers like nobodies business.
I see the label on the top even reinforcing that eating the whole can is a good decision based on the “GOOD SOURCE OF CALCIUM” right on top of it.
As I’m munching away being bored as usual I decided to read the Nutrition Facts, at which point I discover some horrifying facts.
A. In order to get at least 70% of my daily requirements of calcium, I would have to eat the entire contents of the can itself. Hah, more like fair.
B. By the same token doing this will score me 210% of my Saturated (Tasty) Fat requirements. More like “GOOD SOURCE OF HEART-ATTACK”
C. It contains something called “Sodium Acid Pryophosphate”, now I don’t know about you but anything that contains “Acid”, and “Fire” is obviously bad. I don’t care if it’s some fancy form of salt, it has to be bad!
