Don't forget:

"No artificial additives!"

That's just great, however, guar gum, carageenan, locust bean gum,
"natural" colors and "natural" flavors are not artificial, but they are
additives nonetheless -- and I don't want them in my cottage cheese.


Even more evasive is:

"No artificial preservatives!"

Big deal! They can add anything else artificial they like, as long as it
isn't a preservative.  So BHA, BHT and sodium proprionate are ruled out --
but red dye #2 isn't.



Isn't double-talk wonderful?
