    Maybe it doesn't have the word "Sugar" on the label. Maybe it has one (or more) of those two dozen+ words ending in "-ose" on the label. If parents in one area can shop with confidence…AND without a Thesaurus in tow…why not parents in another area?

Secondly, if you don't know the names of the different artificial sweeteners found in your child's food products, then clearly, you're not intelligent enough to be a responsible parent.
