"Made With Real Fruit" Is Doing a Lot of Heavy Lifting
Look at a box of kids' fruit snacks. It says "made with real fruit" in cheerful letters. What it doesn't say is that "real fruit" might mean a splash of juice concentrate while the actual bulk is sugar, corn syrup, and dye.
"Made with" is one of the sneakiest phrases in the aisle. A product can be made with a trace of something good and still be mostly the stuff you're trying to avoid. It's technically true and completely misleading.
The fix is boring but it works: flip it over and read what's actually first on the list. If fruit is fifth and sugar is first, you know what you're really buying.
Or scan it and skip the detective work. HealthierCart reads the label and tells you where it really lands: https://healthiercart.com
Real fruit is an apple. Everything else, read the back.
