>NATURAL FLAVORS, flavoring, flavors... I worked (journalism) in Rockingham county, VA, the single-largest poultry producing county in the country at the time. It probably still is. Ennyhoo, my pals at Rocco Poultry told me that the term "natural flavors/flavoring" often means finely ground chicken parts, i.e. bones, beaks and feet. This is especially popular as a neutral filler for spice blends. Mmm, mmm, good eatin'! Actually, as we all know, this is nothing compared to chemicals and, if anything, good for you! But if I tell my friends this nugget (pun intended), it leaves a taste in their mouths so sour they have to wash it down with Pepsi or some other chemical brew. Inside, I laugh. Aint' I awful? >"Natural" doesn't mean safe! Yeah, look at snake venom; it's natural.
