Fundraising Fakes!

     Be careful of fundraising programs that claim to be healthy or have healthy products, but actually, are not.  Read the labels. If labels are not available, be even more cautious. Sugars and fats get disguised in many ways. There are many terms known as "feel-gooders", that mask the bad stuff and are meant to disarm us. So watch what you are buying carefully.  Although occasional snacking on sweets is not harmful, making a claim that sugar or fat abundant food is healthy is just plain dishonest.  This advertising deception is one reason why sugar abuse has risen to epidemic proportions. Here are a couple of photos that represent one companies claim to "healthy snacks".
