question and complaint

I went to the Strawberry Festival today at the Brandywine Hospital in Coatesville and found, what I thought at the time, to be a great yummy find. It is called Orange Cream Smoothie mix, and they claim that it is fat free, no sugar added and sugar free/ sweetened with Splenda. SOOOOOO I tasted the sample and fell in love. Only 20 cals and 3 carbs per serving and it was only 8 bucks.

I get the thing home and read the back of the package and it say that ingredent #3 is Corn Syrup Solids. WTF that is sugar. Now I am scared to drink the stuff. It says on the back that it had 3 grams of sugar per serving, which may be fine, but WTF??

Ok I feel better now, but still am not drinking this stuff.

oops forgot to include the question.

Has anyone purchased drink powder stuff from a company called Ron & Franks Skinny Gormet??
www.ronandfranks.com

I went to their site... they have some cool looking stuff... maybe some us could pitch in together to split the cost of shipping or something... some of those things also said they make 80 servings... so maybe we could also split the the mix...

I'd be pissed to...however...considering it is only 3gm of sugar/serving it's still probably ok.  But it is definately sugar. 

I'd write to the company and find their take on it just for whoo ha's

That's soooo frustrating!!!!!  I just had that happen with coffee creamer.  Bottle said sugar free and I was VERYYYY excited.  Had some in my coffee and got nauseous.  Read the ingredients.  SPlenda is way down low and the second ingredient is corn syrup.  Taught me a lesson.  I can't EVER let up on reading labels (not that I had but I got a little lax).  SIgh.  What a journey!!!
