The substances are derived from petroleum sludge. The FDA has been "purchased" by large companies and do not look out for our kids. Thankfully, there is a growing trend of smart parents who tell their children, "If there is a color word on the ingredients list, it is not allowed in our bodies!" Same goes for HFCS. My three year old can read color words - lol!

I certainly wish they would begin selling them in the United States as well.Rebeccanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5912214685114240493.post-48426541516255715592010-09-03T16:37:05.126-05:002010-09-03T16:37:05.126-05:00I love smarties... but Nestlé uses bad palm oil.

We get them in Epcot in Disney, so not too often. I'm sure I could find them if I looked but it's a special Disney treat for them to look forward too.Heather{Our Life In a Click}https://www.blogger.com/profile/09060166017198564022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5912214685114240493.post-2694568508357884622010-04-23T09:35:12.651-05:002010-04-23T09:35:12.651-05:00New follower!

The newest boxes have no artificial colors or flavors and no HFCS. It still has more sugar than I'd like, but for a once-in-a-while lunch box item, it's better than many of the options out there. (I'd send the boys with conainers of healthy yogurt, but the containers either don't get recycled or the home ones get tossed.)<br />Making homemade granola bars tonight...crossed fingers that they turn out great!Lady Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05524837121578051547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5912214685114240493.post-84792473746300517722010-04-19T17:43:39.678-05:002010-04-19T17:43:39.678-05:00ran across your blog just a few seconds ago and I ...ran across your blog just a few seconds ago and I immediately had to follow.<br />I love that you go for the non-artificial things.<br />:)<br /><br />sounds like your little girl is just a cutie!!<br /><br />xoxo<br />bB***Brianna!https://www.blogger.com/profile/09024239175610647182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5912214685114240493.post-50864444713640337202010-04-19T12:56:40.368-05:002010-04-19T12:56:40.368-05:00Smarties are the best!
