Yummy, Yummy "CARAMEL" . . .

Okay people . . . so with Halloween coming up soon . . . I thought we'd talk about one of the all time favorites for that holiday . . .

And then . . . we'll figure out just how . . . "caramel" fits into our "supplements"

So, did you know . . . "caramel" is all about "indulgence" that satisfies our "sweet tooth"???

But . . . did you "also" know . . . "CARAMEL" . . . is nothing other than . . . "BURNT" sugar???

That's right . . . "caramel" is simply "sugar" that's "melted" down . . . and darkened to an amber color . . . which leaves it with a deep and bittersweet flavor.

And guess what???

It's the "MOST" widely used "food coloring" in the WORLD.

Now . . . there are 4 classification of "caramel" . . .

Caramel Color 1 . . . also known as plain or spirit caramel

Caramel Color 2 . . . known as sulfite caramel

Caramel Color 3 . . . which is used for ammonia or beer, baking and confectioner's

Caramel Color 4 . . . is used for soft drinks or acid-proof caramel

So in essence . . . "caramel" . . . is used in just about everything we eat or drink these days

Like what you say???

Well . . . that would be . . . colored beverages like brandies . . . or . . .

Bread

Cakes

Confectionery

Preserved vegetables

Fish

Shellfish spreads

Condiments

Soft drinks

Vinegar

Alcoholic drinks

Cheeses

Breakfast cereals

And processed meats

Just to mention a few . . .

And "salted" caramel is used in . . .

Ice cream

On apple slices

Mixed with yogurt

On popcorn

With pretzels

On pancakes/waffles

On cinnamon rolls

And on brownies

So the next question we need to ask is this . . .

Is "caramel" ADDICTIVE???

And HOW DOES IT AFFECT OUR HEALTH???

Well . . . tomorrow, let's find out.
