Here’s some Advice on a Healthy Diet; 1. CHECK THE INGREDIENTS! (Something you though was a Healthier Choice might not be, it’s based on the Companies Marketing Strategy) 2. Shopping in the Grocery Store Outskirts. (Most Grocery Stores place Whole Foods in the Outskirts) 3. Shopping in the Grocery Store Middle Sections. (Most Grocery Stores place Non-Whole Foods in the Middle) 4. Visit a Local Farmers Market. (This can help you Buy Whole Foods while supporting Local Farmers) 5. Don’t Take Everything from Me. (I’m giving this Advice from my own Personal Experience for trying to have a Healthier Diet. Everyone can eat what they Want, it’s their Personal Choice)

the thing about the fruit bar is that it's pretty healthy, unlike what these "experts" are saying. this bar uses fruits and fruit pectin, and thats it. Pretty healthy, fruit as we know is healthy and fruit pectin comes out of a fruit as well. Contrary to what these "experts" are saying you CANNOT compare fruit pectin with sucrose.

[@seitanbeatsyourmeat666]

They strip the natural fiber out, which is what slows the glycemic load of real whole fruits… so no. Fruit bars are not the same or even comparable to fruit, even if made with fruit sugar only, health wise

[@Michelle-pn9xt]

@@matamorosa This product is available in almost every grocery store in this country. I have read the label. SUGAR, PALM OIL, HAZELNUTS, SKIM MILK, COCOA, SOY LECITHIN AS EMULSIFIER, VANILLIN: AN ARTIFICIAL FLAVOR. These are the ingredients. Sugar is the first ingredient. That means that it has more sugar than anything else. Vanillin is the last ingredient, so it has the less of that than anything else. It is full of sugar, so it is very sweet. Reading a food label will lead to a valid conclusion . Just read the label. Foods that are salty have salt listed as one of the main ingredients. Sweet foods like this have sugar as one of the first ingredients. Most people have tasted this. I have tasted it. Someone else bought it. It is too sweet. It is unhealthy junk, so I do not buy it/ There is nothing complicated about reading a label.

I agree that people should be more skeptical, and should read labels. However, I don't think it's ethical to deliberately deceive people, or take advantage of someone's lack of knowledge. I think we should protect young children from being harmed and not allow manufacturers to falsely label products.

The Nutella thing is crazy. I had never gotten into Nutella as a kid since we never bought it, but I've switched to it in the past year because peanuts don't agree with my body. It really is just like chocolate icing and I wish there was a low sugar version of it. I think it tastes fine but if they could get it down to 1g of sugar then it probably would be a decent option for breakfast.
