SLS rant

I sent DH to the store to pick up a few things, including angel food cake mix (I know I could make it from scratch, but I just didn't feel like using a dozen eggs to do it).

Well, he's not the best at checking labels, because when he got home, I noticed that the last ingredient on the box is SLS, as a "whipping aid".  Ugh, it's bad enough that this stuff is in everything else, but it's a food additive too?  I know DH would have called to ask if I still wanted it if he had seen the label, and I would have said no.

I do my best to cook and bake from scratch as much as possible, but I can't make every last thing (or else I'd never leave the kitchen).  I am just so tired of all the junk that's put into our food!

  • How strange! Wow, I would never have expected it in cake mix!!

  • Ew.

    I'm with you though...I try and make everything from scratch, but I just can't all the time! I make a great effort to wean myself off "convienience foods" but sometimes you can't help it!
