I wrote to the makers of “Sweet Baby Ray’s” BBQ Sauce with a simple comment and question…
“You have a great product but I have just one concern - the High Fructose Corn Syrup.
I’ve cut HFCS out of my diet and would like to continue to enjoy your product.
Is there a chance you’ll come out with a version without HFCS?”
Short and to the point, right?
Here’s a portion of their bizarre response…
“I would like to inform you that our High Fructose Corn Syrup contains no artificial or synthetic ingredients or color additives and meets the FDA’s requirements for the use of the term ‘Natural’ Our High Fructose Corn Syrup supplier does not use caustic soda or hydrochloric acid, which is produced using mercury cell technology.”
WTF?!? Mercury cell wha’?!?
Maybe someone here knows what she’s talking about. All I asked was if they’d be selling an HFCS free version - that’s all!
Things that make you go hmmm!
