anotherbanana Posted March 2 Author Share Posted March 2 I suspect we are all missing the trick here; Made in France is stamped on the emballage and it is that which is made locally, not the contents! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lehaut Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 (edited) "Transformé en France" is another trick wording, it means the product was manufactured and packaged in France. The ingredients can come from anywhere. And without getting into the current debates raging over UPFs, nearly all these things are, indeed UPFs, as are 90% of the special offers in supermarkets.

Lori Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 3 hours ago, Lehaut said: "Transformé en France" Yes, annoys the hell out of me. In most cases, when I see this on a label, there is no information as to where the contents of the package came from. Of course, I do care where the package holding the contents was made or where the contents are stuffed into the container, but the actual source/location of the contents itself is even more important (to me). SOL there, it ain't noted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
