La-Di-Da. Pat yourself on the back and be thankful you are so much better than the rest of us poor American's.

Carrageenan is also a natural ingredient. It comes from seaweed. In grammar school we made pudding by cooking irish moss seaweed in milk-I refused to eat it.

Duncan Hines Chewy Fudge Brownie Mix and Similac Advance both contain carrageenan

Or you could google the homework assignment to see where she came up with this.

BTW algae is organic. It's the ultimate organic.

Tom's toothpaste and deodorant have it...

Yogurt and Chocolate milk also have it.

and it's caRRagenan

Icecream has ingredients 1 and 3

marshmallow fluff

pancake syrup

Ice cream/yogurt/cottage cheese and soy milk

Try one of those items? (according to a google search)

googling the ingredient and products produces lists of the them.

For science homework for tomorrow, my kid needs to find two brands of food items that have one of the following ingredients: carageenan, algae, alginate (two each so a total of six). I cook almost entirely from scratch and we use a ton of organic and have virtually no processed anything in the house and I can't find anything on our shelves. I can't find anything on the web either. Even the shampoo doesn't have any of these. Can anyone help?
