| 0:00.0 | Purdue, they've been selling these organic, gluten-free chicken tenders. The ingredient list looked |
| 0:05.4 | great. There's no seed oils on there. And good on this mom, she was like, they're breaded. |
| 0:09.7 | What are they frying these in? So she calls up Purdue and they're like, oh yeah, we do use seed oils. |
| 0:15.4 | There's some loophole. They don't have to list it. This is the stuff that makes moms in America feel |
| 0:19.8 | defeated. I know. It's really hard. We will all get a lot healthier if we behave in a way that is consistent |
