May Contain ... #3

I had KFC for lunch today.  Included in my meal was a honey packet for my biscuit.  The label on the front was "Colonel's Honey Sauce" with 11% real honey in very small print.  This intrigued me so I flipped it over to view the contents:
  • high fructose corn syrup
  • sugar
  • corn syrup
  • honey
  • carmel color
I also bought a pack of new Tic Tac Chill because they were cherry flavored and they sounded good.  What did I find in very small print?  "Not a low calorie food."  You've got to be kidding me.  One tic tac is 1.8 calories.

Food labels will never cease to amaze me.
