You are equating your multi grain crap bars with wikileaks? Okay.....
I think the taxing of cigarettes into very high prices caused people to quit, which resulted in those monies not being collected but spent. |

>? IMHO no
Though you have the right not to eat it and spend your money on products which provide both the information and quality of materials you so desire.

They show the quality of the materials? Where is that on the label?

You actually FOUND the nasty crap, right? It was printed right there on the box, right?
WIN! Anybody in this day and age who believes taglines like "More of the Whole Grains your Body needs" deserves whatever they get. |

Right, I found the nasty crap, because the printing of the true ingredients was required. Otherwise, I might have been turned into a drooling, high fructose corn syrup zombie.

: So where were all the nutrition labels before the 1990 FDA act required them? It's all well and good to say only buy those products that give the desired information, but it is not in the food industry's interest as a whole to reveal it--or else it would have already happened, as the profit motive dictates. The organic food movement has come about as we learned more about the crap that is actually in the food we eat --without that information, there is no movement. Pesticides? What pesticides? A free market, like democracy, is not free if there is not freedom and equality of information distribution.

Yup, COUNTRY-TIME TM lemonade style drink. 'Cause it's just too difficult to make real lemonade.

Right after I fix myself a nice grilled "cheese food product" sandwich, maybe lightly moistened with "vegetable oil spread" (after all, it's got NO CHOLESTEROL). Then I'll finish with some sugar-free cookies (no fewer calories, if you trouble to look at the label, but none of that pesky actual-cookie flavor). |

GDW, so you are saying that content labels are a good idea but shouldn't have to be used?
