I read ingredients religiously. It's a lot easier to be sugar free than dairy free. I _have_ to make most things from scratch to keep my body balanced.
Ditto. Haven't had any frozen meals, or even prepackaged meals, in years. Did find a chicken broth I can use, thus saving me a day's work, and a tomato soup in a carton (no dairy) that is good.
Did you know that they're not required to put something on the label if a) it's less than 3% or b) they didn't make the "sub-ingredient"? As in, there's chicken broth in the item--but THEY DIDN'T MAKE THE CHICKEN BROTH. So they're required only to put "chicken broth" on the label.
And manufacturers are not only fighting labeling, they want to loosen it. I hate the current atmosphere/government...
