Smoke And Mirrors

Yesterday while waiting in line at the grocery store I picked up a box of donuts off a display near the check-out counter and started reading the ingredients. Hydrogenated oils were no longer listed but there was something called fractionated palm kernel oils in the list. I wondered if this was just another name for hydrogenated oils and started searching Google. I found out fractionated oil is not the same as hydrogenated oil but it is just as bad for you. So, remember, the so called food industry's main objective isn't selling quality food. The food industry's main objective is expanding the shelf life of their products so they can make more money.
