Ruffles are made with "all natural oil"
I was eating some Ruffles potato chips last night. And I saw that boastful statement on the back of the bag.

Are other brands of potato chips actually made with "unnatural oil?"

I guess I wouldn't be that shocked. But if that's true, what exactly are those "unnatural" oils?

6. You'd be surprised...
Considering 'cheese like sauce' is a mix of gluten, food coloring and salt.

7. I wonder if that has to do with the Dairy Council
and their (possibly successful) attempts to get only cow's milk labeled as "milk"? It has to do with them not wanting the competition from soy and rice milks (dictating that alternates be labeled as "beverages" instead of milks.) So "real milk" wouldn't technically be wrong in this case ;)

5. Hmmm...wonder if its by the Canadian definition
In Canada, something cannot be "all natural" unless it uses no GMOs or antibiotics.
