> A return to the original recipe would win me back

Ah yes, those "new and improved" recipes which almost invariably are about improving production costs and not improving taste.

I've started shopping by ingredients label. If I see more than a few ingredients I'm gonna pay attention, if it's multiple lines of weird names I'm just putting it back.

However that presumes the companies are honest about what they put in there. I know from a close friend that's not always the case (and yes I avoid that brand).

can you anonymously reveal what brand(s) those are? that sounds dangerous and probably illegal in most countries?
We're trying to figure out how to report this to the proper authorities here without it being obvious who's leaking.

It's not like direct health threat, but it's bad enough that it warrants attention from the authorities.
