How I got blindsided by yeast extract in Amy's Kitchen organic foods (opinion) Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Because, of course, if the vegetable pie product didn't contain any hidden ingredients, wouldn't they proclaim it on the label by saying, "No hidden ingredients"? It's a suspicious company that would use hidden ingredients on some foods while proclaiming "no hidden ingredients" on others. It's almost like admitting that the boxes lacking that statement are using hidden ingredients, don't you think? Help save Amy's from yeast extract Despite all this, I still think there's hope for Amy's Kitchen.

Amy's Kitchen responds to concerns about yeast extract with possible product reformulations Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

The "no hidden ingredients" claim that currently appears on some Amy's Kitchen products, we were told, is currently being phased in across the Amy's Kitchen product line and will be appearing on more products soon. The lack of such a descriptive claim on any current Amy's Kitchen product in no way means the product contains hidden ingredients, Mr. Twieg explained. It only means the product labels have not been updated for those food items. NewsTarget hopes to be able to report, sometime in 2007, that Amy's Kitchen will be entirely free of yeast extract.

Even conscientious consumers couldn't possibly detect the hidden ingredients that can be legally put in pet food, because only about half the actual contents of the pet food are listed on the label due to minimal legal regulations. In addition it is not easy to understand what the list of ingredients truly implies. The only way that I have figured this out is by unearthing the information slowly, bit by bit. For instance, it took me awhile to discern what it means when certain words are listed, such as "meat by-product.

It's almost like admitting that the boxes lacking that statement are using hidden ingredients, don't you think? Help save Amy's from yeast extract Despite all this, I still think there's hope for Amy's Kitchen. This is a company that seems to be doing most things right, and the majority of their food products contain no yeast extract or hidden sources of MSG. I say we encourage Amy's to drop yeast extract as an ingredient and stick with 100% pure herbs and spices for ALL its food products. Will you join me in letting Amy's know that we don't want yeast extract in our organic food?

But they forgot to inform consumers they're also full of yeast extract.

They are "hidden ingredients." REAL KIDS AND FAKE FOOD Several months ago I took a day trip with my daughter's third-grade class and spent several joyful hours touring the Bonneville Dam with them. Lunchtime came, and as the children piled into the picnic area and pulled their lunches out of their backpacks, my mouth dropped open. Many of the kids watched my reaction with amusement, giggling in secret conspiracy as they unwrapped each new treat. Where was the fruit, the vegetables, the high-quality proteins, and fats?

Many of our food products contain hidden ingredients that must be recognized and avoided. For example, many products contain corn syrup for sweetening and persons sensitive to corn should avoid them. Wheat is another common allergen that is often hidden in our foods. Thus, learning how to read food labels in this way and choosing food correctly is a critical part of treatment. Food allergies and sensitivities are a major source of digestive trouble.
