Default Stevia

companies take the gamble..

for example they make millions off a thing before getting caught and when
caught the fine is a whopping 5000 dollars..hardly a incentive to be honest.

even worst is I notice that a lot food that are recalled go on a deep sale
right before..meaning the company knew and purposely sols bad product to
make as much as they could before the recall..

also its hard to nail them down on a product change like using cheaper
ingredients..its the same product..just inferior

and again companies will eventually change the label when forced and pay a
tiny fine
