Your strawberry Twizzlers have no licorice in them. The list is corn syrup, wheat flour, sugar and cornstarch, then palm oil, salt, artificial flavor, citric acid, mineral oil, Red 40 and soy lecithin at 2% or less. Hershey says it themselves. The strawberry and cherry ones don't have licorice extract, which is why they get called licorice type candy. The black ones do have it, and it still isn't much. Black licorice Twizzlers are the same corn syrup, wheat flour, sugar and cornstarch, with licorice extract listed in the 2% or less group. Strawberry is 70% of the Twists Hershey makes in a year. Licorice extract comes from the root of the licorice plant, and the sweet compound in it is glycyrrhizin. FDA warns that if you're 40 or older, eating 2 ounces of black licorice a day for at least 2 weeks could drop your potassium and cause an irregular heart rhythm. FDA also says a lot of licorice candy made in the US has no licorice in it at all. It uses anise oil, which smells and tastes the same.

The cinnamon in your cabinet is almost certainly cassia, which is a different plant. Real cinnamon, the kind sold as Ceylon or true cinnamon, comes from Cinnamomum verum and it's grown mostly in Sri Lanka. Nearly everything sold in America as cinnamon is cassia, one of 3 related species grown in Indonesia, China and Vietnam. FDA does not require the label to tell you which one is in the jar, so most of the time it just says cinnamon. You can tell them apart by looking at a stick. Cassia is one thick hard curl of bark that you could hit someone with. Ceylon is thin and layered like a cigar and it crumbles when you press it. They don't taste the same. Cassia is hot and aggressive and it's what American baked goods are built around. Ceylon is lighter and more floral. A small jar of it costs 3 to 4 times as much per ounce as regular cinnamon, but buy it in a bag and it's about the same price. McCormick's regular cinnamon is harvested in Indonesia, which makes it cassia. Their gourmet jar is Saigon cinnamon from Vietnam, and that's cassia too.

Fairlife chocolate protein shake has one main ingredient. Filtered lowfat milk. Every other item on the list is under 1%. The 26 grams of protein in the bottle comes from filtered milk, not from anything added. Regular lowfat milk is about 8 grams of protein a cup, so 14 ounces would give you around 14 grams. Ultrafiltration pushes the milk through membranes that hold the protein back and let the water and most of the lactose through, then the plant recombines it with more of the protein fraction. That's how you get to 26 with nothing on the list but milk. The under 1% group is the taste and the texture. Four sweeteners, monk fruit, stevia, acesulfame potassium and sucralose. Each has its own aftertaste, and stacking them at low levels lets each one cover for the others. Then carrageenan, cellulose gel and cellulose gum, three thickeners that keep the cocoa from settling and give the shake some body. It's about as clean as a protein shake gets.

A can of PAM olive oil spray says 0 calories and 0 grams of fat. The ingredients are extra virgin olive oil, soy lecithin and dimethyl silicone. It's a can of oil. The serving size is a quarter second spray, or 0.25 grams. Under FDA rules anything under 5 calories a serving can say 0, and anything under half a gram of fat can say 0 grams. A quarter gram of olive oil comes in under both. The can says about 665 servings. Nobody sprays for a quarter second. Count how long you hold the button down next time you grease a pan. 2 seconds is 8 servings. There's an asterisk next to the olive oil in the ingredient list. It says adds a trivial amount of fat.

Call out this team for a good effort against an NHL power? Look, the #Flyers are undermanned, not good enough offensively and their backup goalies have been bad. The bright side: Michkov is a future star, the effort is there, and they are gaining ground in the draft race.
The Philly sports media are so afraid to call out this crappy team…. You think Fedotov is a good goalie? Doesn’t know what to do with a puck. Sick and tired of this fake city’s sports media. @JHallNBCS @NBCSPhilly @BroadStBull @frank_seravalli @espn

How much progress do you think Briere and Jonsey have made in getting JT Miller to wave his NTC?

Volvo posted a 3 min and 46 second ad on Instagram, shot by Hoyte Van Hoytema, the cinematographer of Interstellar and Oppenheimer. It goes against every single rule you can think about as a social lead. Length. Format. Over-produced. Every comment under the ad said it immediately put Volvo in their consideration set. It's fucking fantastic.

Was looking at the ketchup they gave me in spain and noticed it's in a glass bottle, has no corn syrup and real tomatoes... Unlike the heinz in the USA which is in plastic, using tomato concentrate and high fructose corn syrup why is everything in the USA garbage?

This is an absolute embarrassment. This is 100% on hockey ops. Put out an inferior product for long enough and this kind of thing happens. Never thought I'd see it in Philly.
There have been years where the building has been half-empty. There have been years where crowds have been quiet. When's the last time you saw a fanbase invade the Wells Fargo Center and do this? At what point is this unacceptable? #Flyers #FueledByPhilly
