Re: Izze juice drinks

[Guest guest]

Hello All,

I have been drinking Izze's because the label says juice and sparkling water. No refined sugars added and no preservatives. All natural. I have been skeptical about the labelingso I called the company to confirm. They have confirmed that the sugar comes from all of the fruits only and they use sparkling water. That's it. So I don't know if anyone drinks these but they are a great substitute for soda.

This might be old news to everyone.

You will need to write to them -- physically -- and get a letter on their

letterhead confirming this statement.

Phone calls aren't enough.

<smile> I use legal plain sparkling water and add it to a few

tablespoons of legal fruit juice. Much safer and very delicious.

Hi Dvon,

From what I recall (I used to gulp Izze drinks) it is made from fruit

juice concentrate. I also thought this was legal until it was

explained to me how the concentrating process is done.

So even if they don't add sugar to the concentrate the concentrate

itself is so jam packed with natural sugar making it very hard for us

to tolerate. As it is we are supposed to dilute normal juices.
