Kraft Macaroni and Cheese is formulated differently in Europe than in the U.S. This fact recently surfaced while I was doing an investigative search. I was livid!...Continue reading...
I’ve been teaching, lecturing, and reporting about the dangers of food additives for over 15 years, and to think that other countries have been successful in forcing manufacturers to remove harmful ingredients, and in the U.S. we haven’t been, is mind-boggling.
In 2008, Kraft removed artificial colorings, like yellow #5 and chemical sweeteners like aspartame, from the products they distribute in Europe, Australia, and other developed countries due to consumer concern over scientific link that these synthetic ingredients to hyperactivity and asthma in children, and a myriad of other health disorders too numerous to mention in this context—hasn’t the U.S. done the same?
Thanks to organizations like MomsRising, a petition has been started to write Irene Rosenfeld, CEO of Kraft Foods and a mother of two, requesting Kraft Foods remove these same ingredients from their U.S. products.
The letter campaign simply requests that Kraft value the health of our children as highly as they value children in other countries.
Together, we CAN make a difference, get involved.
Below is the link to sign the letter. Complacency leads to Complicated Invisible Disorders—are you willing to take the responsibility of illnesses in your children and others that you could have prevented by adding your voice to be proactive before a disorder emerges and you’re forced to become reactive?

I salute MomsRising for practicing what they teach…health through education, naturally.

It'll be best if our government who are in charge for health of the society will observe this, and know more about the danger of food additives. If other countries can do it, we can do it too.

Next time I'll put on some lederhose and sing "Adelvice". That should shatter the Captain Von Trapp illusions most thoroughly..
