Here I've been trying my best to avoid sugar in everything I eat and this happens! :rolleyes:
I finally found a hand lotion that I love. It's Burt's Bees Milk and Honey Body Lotion. I like it so much that I drive 60 miles to buy it.
I was sitting around with nothing better to do, so I picked up the bottle to read the ingredients. I think this is a result of being on Atkins for a while, I read all food labels, now I'm branching out into other categories. I wasn't too surprised to see honey listed, it's in the title, right? But I read further down and I see sucrose stearate (sugar emulsifier), glucose and glucose oxidase and lactoperoxidase (sugar and natural emzymes). Good heavens! :eek: I might as well eat a doughnut as wear this lotion! Well, maybe it's not quite that bad.
Just remember folks, read those labels! Ya never know what you'll find.
