The Ingredient Game: Round Two

May 18, 2004 | By | 5 Comments

The first round of The Ingredient Game was a raging success. Well, in any case, people seemed to like it.

Tonight’s Food Item is slightly more tricky. Here are two clues to help:

1. This is not something you eat directly;

2. It contains 0 Fat, 0 Cholesterol, 0 Sodium, 0 Protein and 2 g of Carbohydrates.

And now for the ingredients:

Corn Syrup Solids, Partially Hydrogenated Canola Oil, Sugar, Sodium Caseinate, Dipotassium Phosphate, Maltodextrin, Titanium Dioxide, Mono- and Diglycerides, Sodium Aluminosilicate, Artificial Flavor, Carrageenan, Annatto Color.

Boy, just reading those ingredients makes you hungry, doesn’t it? Good luck!

    That ingredient list sounds lacking in actual food…. d:

    I’m curious to see what it is; but have a feeling that it might be another weird american thing I’ve never encountered.

    No, wait. Is it Pam?

    No wait, is it steak?

    (Just kidding about the steak. I’m serious about the Pam, though. I called my friend Pam and she indicated that all those things are inside her right now. That counts, right?)

    Wow, damn Sara…that was quick!

    Yes, indeed, it is Coffee Mate—non-dairy creamer. How creepy that corn syrup, Sodium Caseinate, Dipotassium Phosphate, and Maltodextrin can be a substitute for MILK!
