Default CRACKER FRAUD ??


I was buying a box of Kroger Saltine crackers
when I noticed the box of "Wheat Saltines" next to it.

Hmmm.... WHEAT sounds alot healthier.
I bought one of each.

When I got home, I looked at the ingredients list.
WHEAT saltines are identical to Regular saltines
with the exception of "Caramel coloring"

FRAUD ? maybe "customer misdirection" ?

I wrote to Kroger, asking them about the labeling.
Here's their response;

"Thank you for contacting us. A whole wheat cracker (meaning that it's
whole grain) would have to say 100% Whole Wheat in the ingredient
statement. The above cracker does not indicate this. I hope this
information is helpful."

What the hell did they say ?
