I remember looking at a carton of Whole Foods soy milk that prominently said “no added sugar”.

I looked on the back and after water the second ingredient was “dehydrated cane juice”.

The food system has been gamed forever.

Unless you can link some actual reference, I'm going to call bullshit on this one. Dehydrated cane juice is literally just (less refined) sugar, and in my experience I have never seen a "no added sugar" label on a product with dehydrated cane juice. I actually look a lot for this because in my experience "all natural" combined with "no added sugar" almost always means Stevia, and I can't stand that stuff.

I just did a search online and all the Whole Foods soy milk I could fine listed either "organic cane sugar" as an ingredient, or was unsweetened.

I get frustrated too. I avoid aspartame/sucralose/etc... then it turns out they have stevia/monk fruit extract/etc

oh, and there are some other ones that you might want to avoid.

A low FODMAP diet would cut out not only fructose, but lactose and the -itols like sorbitol, xylitol, and mannitol

		The -itols just shouldn't be allowed in food. Consume too much and you best not be out in public.
