Default 2 More Days!

Just 2 more days to write into the FDA! So if you haven't and you still want to then now is the time...

Have a great day,
Robert

Good News...the FDA has seen how many people have written in to them and how much of a concern we showed that they are extending the commenting period another month...Everyone can still write in, who hasn't already, to the FDA until May 25th! So keep spreading the word...Make sure the FDA doesn't change our chocolate!

Default chocolate website

I just made myself heard as a consumer and to back up and support the food industry as well. I will send this site to all I know for further support!

Default fake additives

In resonse to additional concerns with other additives besides the chocolate concern:
I too am concerned about the lack of quality in the end results of fine food if the FDA has their way with what we can and cannot use to produce fine food.
I am a consumer and hope to be cafe owner later on when I retire. I am concerned about what they might dictate as far as the use of butter. I for one do not use anything else in my baking. I only use puree fruit to substute for fat for some desserts I am working on to satisfy those who have no choice to avoid butter.
Otherwise, there is no replacement for pure butter in cookies and cakes. The taste and texture cannot be beat.
I hope this helps.
