After all, we’ve had years of hype and marketing for cranberries, goji, noni, acai and mangosteen.&nbsp; Now there’s a new berry in your health food aisle or produce store. It’s the Incaberry! <br/><br/><p id="readmore"><i [...] admin@foodwatch.com.au Sat, 01 Oct 2011 14:00:00 +0100 super foods nutrients healthy snacking food trends fibre carbohydrates antioxidants http://foodwatch.com.au/482-product-review-lipton-green-tea-ice-tea.html <p><img style="margin: 6px; border: 3px double #cccccc; float: left;" src="http://foodwatch.com.au/images/stories/blog_/Lipton_Ice_Tea_single_bottle_with_glass.jpg" alt="Lipton_Ice_Tea_single_bottle_with_glass" height="120" width="160" />I like to sip this iced tea as a refreshing not-overly-sweet drink. It’s pleasant and sweet without being sickly-sweet. It’s not fizzy so there’s no gaseous feeling nor burping afterwards.

We all love its soft sweetness but it's clear we overdo its consumption. As a nation, Australia has a collective sweet tooth that sees us consuming ¾ of a kilo a week of the stuff.

While it's not the cause, it's certainly contributing to health problems such as tooth d [...] saxelby@foodwatch.com.au Tue, 26 May 2009 14:00:00 +0100 healthy eating diet carbohydrates antioxidants http://foodwatch.com.au/58-pomegranate-molasses-for-flavour-without-fat.html <p><img height="133" width="136" title="Pomegranate in the flesh" alt="pom_cut-small" src="http://foodwatch.com.au/images/stories/blog_/pom_cut-small.jpg" class="caption" style="margin: 3px; float: left;" /> </p><br/><p>My taste buds died and woke up in flavour heaven! I've just bought my first bottle of pomegranate molasses and can't believe how magnificent the flavour is! How come I got to the ripe old age of 50-something and never ever sampled this before?
