Thanks GF.  I have just read this article and people need to know what they are eating.

Thanks GF, my vegetarian daughter will be annoyed.
You don't imagine Australian producer to be doing things like that. Even the most minute amount should be declared in the product list, I believe.

I think the article is a bit overblown. The juice is only clarified through gelatine. Many flavourings are alcohol based - e.g. vanilla.

I don't ever buy juice and never will as it's made from concentrate. I make cordial for my DH.

A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

I also make raspberry cordial regularly.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.
