I've just read the new Journal entry. I'm disappointed to learn that Daniel has accepted to speak to Kraft executives, giving these the benefit of his hard-won insights. In the past Daniel Negreanu has written of how he loathes cigarette smoke and yet here he is displaying publicly his consent for Phillip Morris, Kraft's parent company.

Yikes! Looks like you gotta do a lot of research before doing something like this. And hear all I thought they made was Mac and Cheese! In all seriousness, I was impressed with the tone of the conference. They spent a lot of time discussing ways to make their products healthier.

In all seriousness, I was impressed with the tone of the conference. They spent a lot of time discussing ways to make their products healthier.

I'm pretty sure they meant seem healthier. Phillip Morris has been buying up "family friendly" companies like Kraft and Nabisco in a brand-retooling effort for a few years now.Oh. I sent you an email about this Canadian wonderstuff after reading about your Tunica food nightmare. (Canadian vegetarian here.) I can't stress the product enough without feeling a little embarrassed so I'll just put it out there.http://www.greensplus.com/Here's the ingredient list to whet your interest:NON-GMO1 Soy Lecithin 2,339mgOrganic Hawaiian Spirulina Pacifica 1,356mgOrganic High Pectin Apple Fiber 1,350mgBarley Grass Powder 650mgWheat Grass Powder 350mgJapanese Chlorella 350mgOrganic Soy Sprouts 350mgBrown Rice Bran 350mgSprouted Barley Malt 350mgAlfalfa Grass Powder 300mgSeven Dairy-Free Probiotic Cultures containing:L.
