Heart One thing that surprised me

When I switched from GMO to Organic food I started looking at labels on food, more carefully than I had in the past. Before that I took the BIG, BOLD words on food packaging at face value, like Betty Crocker's 100% REAL POTATOES in her instant mashed potatoes. I kept them on hand to thicken soups and casseroles.

When I read the little print label I was surprised that the 100% REAL POTATOES contained soy and corn. Both soy and corn are GMO in commercial foods. And, it turns out soy isn't all that good for us even when it's Organic unless it's fermented. So Tofu? NOT a health food. Big surprise to me!

My beloved coffee creamer? also soy and corn. That was the hardest to replace, but I've finally got a mix of powdered Organic ingredients that provides a very satisfying creamer effect in my coffee.
