Summary: The dairy industry petitioned the FDA to add chemical sweeteners to a host of milk products, starting with flavored milks in schools -- without adding nutrient content claims such as "reduced calorie" to the front of the carton. The dairy industry claims that visible nutrient content claims make children less likely to choose the milk products, and that removing the nutrient content claims will lead to more healthful eating practices and promote honest and fair dealings in the market. Does this sound healthful or honest to you? In this episode of Know Your Food with Wardee, my special guests -- Sally Fallon Morrell, Kimberly Hartke, and Cathy Raymond -- say no as well.
