Ingredient list is not accurate and hard to find
Since Amazon has a policy of not allowing returns of food items it is especially important to list all the ingredients and the correct ingredients for any of those that have allergies or are avoiding certain foods. In the case of this product I did not get what I was expecting and could not return. First off is they do not show the direct picture of the ingredient list at the top of the listing like you will see on all other products out there. Secondly in their review of the ingredients they conveniently omit all the controversial ingredients in the summary. So you have to go to the bottom of the listing to see the actual ingredient list. And even in that description they list the wrong oil in the number one ingredient in the list which they say is canola oil. It is actually corn oil as listed on my jar. Corn oil is much different than canola oil in that it has almost double the saturated fat and much less of the omega 3 healthy oils. This product is also very unhealthy oil in that it lists monosodium glutamate as the 5th ingredient which then follows salt and sugar and then soy sauce which is mostly wheat and salt also. Finally the hard to pronounce ingredients Disodium Guanylate and Inosinate Disodium Guanylate are part of a family of food additives that are vary similar to monosodium glutamate (MSG).
I normally avoid these types of products but due to the fact that the real ingredient list was not easily found and the fact that they didn't list all of the correct ingredients make me wonder if they are trying to hide something. As long as you are ok with the above chemicals in your food then this might be the right product for you.
