Back in November, Hershey was sued for using cocoa produced by child labor in West Africa. They have not, so far, released records disproving this. A government survey indicates that, in West Africa, 89 percent of children are employed by companies that grow and harvest cocoa. Abuses include carrying heavy loads and hoisting machetes.
How sweet it isnt.
Hershey says the company is working with the U.S. Dept. of Labor and United Nations organizations to resolve this issue. In the meantime, Ive noticed more Hershey ads and coupons than usual, which doesnt change the fact that Caesars wife must be above reproach.

Speaking of chocolate, savvy manufacturers team it with miracle fruits to tempt the health-food crowd. Ive seen Brookside brand chocolate-covered pomegranate,douuo.com/airjordan, acai and goji real fruit juice pieces. Tell me, please, what is a fruit juice piece?

Without Kraft Dinner, the American childhood experience would be a pale, bland thing. I know, because I was deprived. My mother called it trash food which made me crave it even more. Even now. So I shuddered when, in March, two North Carolina moms petitioned the multinational to remove Yellow #5 and #6 dye (which impart that neon orange) from the product. These artificial dyes have been investigated for causing all manner of problems. The crusade was enjoined by the Canadians. Kraft uses with paprika and beta carotene for the European market,http://www.haikee.com/, because of stricter regulations.
My question: What took them so long? Does anybody really think cheese any cheese --occurs in this hue? Milk is white.
So far, Kraft stands strong while my mother sits on a cloud flapping her wings and gloating.
January resolution dieting enjoys a second season: the pre-bikini months of April and May. Jennifer Hudson rides again. The problem with diets isnt the food,celine bags online, but hunger and lack of satiety. Heres what I eat when faced with an active morning without access to snacks: oatmeal. Nothing satisfies (or stays with you longer) than oatmeal. I suggested to a dieting friend that, mid-morning or mid-afternoon, she stir up enough quick-cooking oatmeal with a few golden raisins to fill a custard cup. No sugar, no milk, just a sprinkle of salt. Oatmeals delicious plain, at about 75 calories for that amount,Tory Burch sale. She said this squelched hunger and cravings, allowing her to stick to the meal plan.

By any other name a prune is still a dried plum. Whoever started the laxative rumor ought to have his mouth washed out with prune juice. But the prejudice (fear?) stuck. Sunsweet began the reimaging process by calling them dried plums, then DNoir (means of black nonsense). Other machinations include Ones (individually wrapped, like candy), Amazins and Plum Sweets. Prunes are one of my favorite foods; people who turn away are missing some really good,louis vuitton wallets, really nutritious snacking. Please, buy a box of plain, pitted prunes and get acquainted. Might even melt a bag of chocolate chips for enrobing the pieces. Because whats good for the goji is good for the Ones.

News from the Food Funny Papers:
Lays Chicken and Waffles flavored potato chips. I cannot think of a worse threesome.
Lotsa luck to the fast-food chain that advertises mesclun (gourmet greens) peeking out from the bun.
Ditto the Nespresso espresso/latte machine with a hundred tiny pods of flavored coffee, a milk chamber for heating and frothing and Penelope Cruz purring her endorsement. That and five bucks gets you a cuppa.
Hostess Brands announced last week that their Twinkies plant in Georgia will reopen soon. In the meantime, a half dozen other snack-cake brands have attempted Hostess knock-offs. Most comical: Sara Lees crème-filled CupCakes, with the while icing squiggle. Some things just cant be gentrified.
