Most Whole Foods Mayonaise has Sugar. 90%

January 15, 2011

I was in my local Whole Foods today to get some mayonnaise without any sweeteners. I went through their 11 mayonnaise offerings and the first ten labels I read all had sugar or some sweetener in them.

The eleventh one, alas, had no sweetener! At least there was one.

But, the sad thing is that 90% had sugar

There is absolutely no reason to put sugar or any sweetener in mayonnaise. NONE.

To: Execs at Whole Foods - This is pathetic!

The non-sugar mayonnaise was so expensive I decided to go home and make some myself. Never done it before. Made it in about 5 mins with one egg and a cup of oil and a few other ingredients - and i didn't put any sugar or honey in it and it tastes great! You can find recipes all over the internet, just don't add the sweet stuff.

Here's a list of those words and ingredients.

January 13, 2011

Was shopping at my local Whole Foods yesterday and decided to look and see what the current situation is with their sugar-filled soups.

I decided to look over their soup offerings in those boxes that hold liquids, as opposed to soups in cans. First one, Organic Chicken broth, sounds healthy. Bummer, it has sugar!

I don't get it. If they took the sugar out of the chicken broth, would they be worried that angry customers would be clamoring for them to "put the sugar back in, it's not sweet enough...

January 11, 2011

If you are interested in a healthy diet, or if you want to lose/manage weight or keep your blood triglycerides (fats) low (to name a few reasons), you should eliminate or severely reduce sugar in your diet. And it's not just sugar, it's all similar foods that do to your body what sugar does.

Good question. I haven't found it yet. Whole Foods doesn't have it. Trader Joe's doesn't have it. Does anyone know of a place that sells it?
