Guest guest Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Ingredients of COFFEE-MATE Original (Liquid):Water: H20Corn syrup solids: Used mostly in imitation dairy foods, corn syrup is a type of sugar (mostly dextrose) that is made from cornstarch.Partially hydrogenated soybean and/or cottonseed oil: All partially hydrogenated oils contain high levels of trans fats, which are brutal to your body. These cheap, human-tweaked fats were adopted heartily by grocery manufacturers in the 1970’s, a move that some say helped to kick off the American obesity epidemic. Soybean oil is perhaps the worst, as some contend that it depresses the thyroid gland and lowers your energy level.However: COFFEE-MATE is legally allowed to say it is “trans fat free†because the serving size is so small. But don’t be fooled: COFFEE-MATE contains trans fats!Sodium caseinate: A milk protein that contains no lactose, stabilized to have a longer shelf life. It is a major component of cheese and provides many nutrients and essential amino acids.Mono- and digycerides: Simply put, these are fats. They are emulsifying agents used to extend shelf life, and you will often see them in foods that also contain trans fats. In fact, some nutritionists are calling them “the next trans fats.â€Dipotassium phosphate: Also known as phosphoric acid, this water-soluble salt prevents coagulation and is “generally regarded as safe†by the FDA – aka it’s been in use since the 50’s.Carrageenan: Extracted from red seaweeds, this food additive is a type of vegan gelatin and has been in use for hundreds of years.According to some research I have done..Sodium caseinate is another name for MSG. So what's so hard to buy half and half, or even whipping cream, they sell this in stores in little containers. Why put this stuff in your body? I got my parents to buy a mostly natural creamer, b/c I used to tell my dad that coffee mate creamers was really bad for him, since he is a heart patient, so he found a product that dairy gold makes I guess it might be limited sales for the pacific northwest, but it is only cream, and sugar, and no artificial ingredients, so he listened, and finally some company did some thing good for the people. I guess if we complain enough they listen.
