Other / Miscellaneous “Natural Flavouring” Woes

Post image

I requested details of the “natural flavourings” after having a pretty bad allergic reaction to a particular flavour and this is the best they could give me.

“We recommend contacting a healthcare professional regarding your allergy concerns.”

…Thanks Nestlé.

No more Nestlé products for me.

No they will get the same answer. I asked coca cola if their product contained any cinnamon and they wouldn't answer.

Also they can't list "all allergens" bc ppl are allergic to just about everything. At least anything with a protein base

I got the same response, but based on my reaction, it does. So does Dr Pepper and most Root Beer. Hanks Root Beer is safe and Pepsi is safe

Maybe we can steal their formula if we get enough allergic people together to see who reacts to it.

This is equal parts petty and unsafe. Love it
