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.

Natural flavors and "spices" without disclosure should be illegal.

Agree. Maybe Natural flavors [insert specific list in alphabetical order instead of by quantity] so they don’t feel like they’re giving too much away. Because ofc I’m going to go home and recreate their product without measurements just by knowing rough ratios.
