Yay, more food conglomerates making labeling transparency next to impossible.

Kraft labeling has improved greatly. Not perfect but I am seeing more transparency in regards to GF labeling (reading articles, our Kraft use is limited) which gives me hope.

Heinz can bite me with their "proprietary" junk.

Hoping they will lean towards Kraft directions in regards to labeling.
