Sugar Cane and My Cool Whip Story

Posted by Reporter on

I did a double-take. There in front of me on a random little black shelf in the produce section, strewn haphazardly below the shelf of big fat New Zealand kiwis, lay vacuum-packed single sticks of sugar cane! The cool thing about this:

  • We are talking seriously mediocre grocery store where I would bet a lot of money they would never carry something like single sticks of sugar cane.
  • Where can you buy relatively fresh sugar cane sticks?
  • I felt my salivary glands awaken at the idea of sucking on the sweet cane juices.

Promptly my husband walks over and says, “Oh, you found the hippie sticks!”

On a darker note, I am mad at Kraft. I should be writing them a letter, but first I’ll share what I discovered in the frozen dessert case yesterday. I was supposed to be picking up a pint of B&J’s for Jeff, but I was distracted by all of the bright colors in the Cool Whip section. Then, from a distance I see, “Cool Whip — Sugar Free”. Okay, so I suspected the usual maltitol or Splenda that I seem to see in sugar-free ingredients lists but I decided to take a look. As I read the ingredients through the frozen glass door, I became surprised.

The first ingredient was water, if I’m remembering correctly, but the second ingredient, even before milk or oil, was corn syrup! Just “corn syrup” with a tiny asterisk. Okay so I followed the asterisk down to the bottom edge of the container and read something like, “Contains a trivial amount of sugar.” My question is, isn’t a trivial amount of sugar still sugar? Also, why would you print ingredients in the tiniest font in the world? I have excellent eyesight, yet the font made my eyes hurt.

It was a reminder to not believe everything you read on a label. I guess food industry geniuses figure most people will just look at the front label and not bother to check the list of ingredients. Little did Kraft know that I would discover their dirty little secret and share it on the world wide web! It infuriates me how labeling laws allow for this inconsistancy. To me, sugar-free means no sugar at all, otherwise, where do you draw the line and WHO draws the line? A “trivial” amount of sugar is quite subjective in my opinion! Also, if one were to eat the entire tub of cool whip, could it be considered sugar-free then, or did that person eat so many servings of “trivial” amounts of sugar that the total amount consumed wasn’t trivial anymore?

I don’t respect tricky marketing tactics like this, and I think if enough people complain, Kraft may own up to their misleading label.

It reminds me of the big argument a while back about the “fat free” butter spray that people would basically drown their toast with, “because they could.” But come to find out, “fat-free” only pertained to one serving size and after so many serving sizes the butter was definitely no longer fat-free!

Anyway, I have provided a link to the Cool Whip I am talking about because I think it’s so interesting. Do they count on their customers being so naive?

StopLyingtoMyFace.com from Lexli Skin Care

Posted by Reporter on

stoplyingtomyface.comIn search of flawless complexions and minimized wrinkles, American women spend billions of dollars annually on products intended to make their skin look younger and healthier. Yet, nearly all of those women* have described themselves as being confused by the endless variety of products available. Adding to the confusion, skincare companies have marketed myths in an attempt to get this willing audience to buy seemingly miracle products that deliver little more than hope. The result is wasted money, unsatisfying results and a growing number of women who are distrustful of skincare marketing. To shed light on product ingredients and the proper steps to healthy skin while giving women an outlet for their frustration, a new site launches today at www.StopLyingToMyFace.com.

The Web site is being launched by Lexli, a skincare company that was founded by a board-certified plastic surgeon after years of hearing his patients complain about products that don’t work. Lexli is committed to truth-in-marketing and scientific-based product formulations that achieve their intended results.

“There’s no question that consumers are confused by the dizzying array of product assertions and contradictions proliferating the skincare industry,” notes Dr. Ahmed Abdullah, CEO and co-founder of Lexli. “Most products are made to sell off the shelf and therefore place a premium on looking beautiful, smelling nice and feeling good on the skin. Too, often, however, that’s where the benefits end. Because the FDA doesn’t verify claims, it’s up to consumers to get educated about the products they use.”

He adds, “Our goal with Lexli isn’t simply to sell products, but to improve skincare and dispute the misleading information that is marketed to consumers. As a medical professional, my hope is that the skincare industry will soon be held to a higher standard where products claims are evidence-based and consumers can count on truthful, accurate information.”

At StopLyingToMyFace.com, visitors have the opportunity to get the truth behind some of the skincare industry’s most popular myths and misinformation; hear points-of-view from women who have experienced the same confusion and frustration; and share their own personal stories and feelings related to the topic.

“The Web site is an engaging way for us to help spawn a movement to end skincare marketing myths,” said Jessica O’Dair, a licensed esthetician and brand ambassador for Lexli who writes a blog at www.lexli.com/jessica about skincare products and ingredients while debunking category myths. “This is a topic that nearly every woman can relate to but, until now, there hasn’t been a public venue to discuss the issue.”

Eventone Glycolic Texturizer Moore Unique’s Skin Care

Posted by Reporter on

Moore Unique Skin CareMoore Unique Skin Care announces the introduction of the newly branded Eventone Glycolic Texturizer, formerly known as Toner Cream, to drugstores and retailers across the U.S., including select Walgreens, HEB and CVS stores. Eventone Glycolic Texturizer, a skin-care product formulated for men and women by dermatologist Milton D. Moore, MD, is a breakthrough formula for correcting skin texture problems resulting from shaving and acne. With Eventone, men can finally say goodbye to rough beards and embarrassing shave discoloration, and those suffering from the aftereffects of acne can now enjoy blemish-free skin as well. In addition to promoting smoother, softer skin, Eventone also successfully minimizes pores, treats fine lines and eliminates age spots.

Eventone Glycolic Texturizer is one in a line of several shaving products developed by Dr. Moore to promote healthy skin for men and women. The Moore Unique Shaving System has been clinically tested and has shown reduced severe skin irritation and the subsequent “razor bumps” experienced by men who shave facial hair and women who shave the underarms, legs and bikini areas. Thanks to the Moore Unique Shaving System, there is no need to live with unsightly, itchy and uncomfortable shaving bumps.

The Moore Unique Shaving System has been endorsed by the Houston Police Department and is used by many in the workforce. Mr. Clarence Bradford, former chief of the Houston Police Department, has been using Moore Unique Skin Care products for nearly twenty years with great results. For Joshua Tibbs, Eventone has proved to be the solution he’s needed for a long time. “I love the new Moore Unique Eventone. I’ve struggled with acne and razor bumps throughout my life and have some dark spots left over to prove it. I’ve been using Eventone for a little while now, and I’m noticing these blemishes improve day by day,” says Tibbs. Dr. Moore created Eventone Glycolic Texturizer for this very reason. When asked what prompted him to develop Eventone, Dr. Moore stated, “I had a problem with darkness and not smooth skin myself, and nothing was available, not even by prescription that could do a good job.” Out of his own desire for smooth, blemish-free skin, as a dermatologist and pharmacist, Dr. Moore developed the Moore Unique Skin Care line and has had great results over the years.

Eventone Glycolic Texturizer is the latest product released in Moore Unique’s Skin Care line and has shown to improve blemishes, soften skin, reduce fine lines, minimize pores and eliminate age spots. Eventone can be purchased at select Walgreens, HEB and CVC stores and retails for $9.99 for a three-month supply.

Slick! is clinically proven to prevent over 70% of ingrown hairs by the University of Pennsylvania.
