Whole Foods has sugar in very odd foods, as in regular foods you don't expect to contain sugar.
Check
out their soups. Almost all have sugar, corn syrup, or molasses, it's all the same.
REALLY? Soup has to have sugar? I don't think so.
I did a quick random check online of three soups, the first three I saw. All three have some form of sugar in them! Here they are, check it out for yourself:
For instance, their 365 Organic Lentil Soup (sounds really healthy, doesn't it?) has cane sugar and molasses in it. REALLY? You need molasses and sugar in organic lentil soup? This is preposterous! If someone wants sugar in their lentil soup, please let them stir it in themselves, don't pawn it off on the rest of us as if it's some sort of standard healthy ingredient.
Their 365 Everyday Value Organic Minestrone Soup has sugar cane juice in it! REALLY? We need sugar in our minestrone soup? Come on!
And, yes, even their tomato soup. Tomato soup! Their 365 Everyday Value Organic Tomato Soup has sugar and molasses in it. This is absolutely outrageous!
Bacon? REALLY? Bacon needs sugar? Are you going to put sugar in your pork chops next? We don't need sugar in bacon! EVERY bacon sold by my local Whole Foods has sugar in it, including the bacon they sell at their butcher counter. Every single one. I counted seven different bacon offerings. Couldn't at least one not have sugar in it? Next thing you know Whole Foods is going to inject "pure natural cane juice" in their burger meat and want you to eat that too!Whole Foods may have this image that they are the healthiest food market around, but read their labels. After all, is organic soup full of sugar healthy for you?
Whole Foods sells books and magazines in their stores filled with solid information on how deadly sugar is for the body, yet they peddle sugar in many of their own private label foods as if it's part of a healthy diet. Go figure!
You need to tell them this is unethical!
If they have to peddle sugar for some reason, they should at least be offering you healthy (non-sugar) alternatives.
