WASHINGTON, Aug. 13 (UPI) — A U.S. food advocacy group is calling on Vermont ice cream maker Ben & Jerry’s to drop the “All Natural” claim on its ice cream and frozen yogurt.
Officials at the Center for Science in the Public Interest in Washington say 48 out of 53 flavors of Ben & Jerry’s All Natural ice cream and frozen yogurt contain alkalized cocoa, corn syrup, partially hydrogenated soybean oil — all ingredients that do not exist in nature or have been chemically modified.
For instance, All Natural Chubby Hubby ice cream contains three non-natural ingredients: alkalized cocoa, partially hydrogenated soybean oil and corn syrup.
