    If the ingredients don’t include sesame, companies must take steps to prevent the foods from coming in contact with any sesame, known as cross-contamination.

    Is this why soy is in fucking everything?! Because companies would rather add it for a few cents and say it contains it versus spending dollars to prevent its inclusion?

    Fucking hell…

      No, soy is in everything because it is cheaper than other ingredients that serve the same purpose. Think high fructose corn syrup vs sugar.
