Guest guest Posted May 28, 2004 Report Share Posted May 28, 2004 Can't natural flavorings mean that something may contain aspartame and/or MSG? Both of those are bad news.

You've done your homework and are absolutely correct. It's not up to the company to determine legality and this one admitted they are not familiar with SCD. Once again I highly recommend frontier for quality and flavor (no $$ interest ;-) Carol F. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
