I have asked 3 times of the Wendy customer call in number WHAT the
ingredients are in their Frosty "milkshakes" and they never have responded.

Any ideas on how to get the information?  I'd like to know that what they
put in those tasty things is GOOD for my health.

Anyone worried about beer contents, or wine for that matter, brew your
own...a wonderful hobby too.

Regarding why beer does not have a nutrition facts label.

Beer is not regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).  The FDA is
the organization responsible for the Nutrition Facts Labels.  Beer comes
under the department of firearms or whatever it is called.

Hi!

Does anyone know why beer distributors are not required to have
nutritional labels on their cans/bottles?  Thank you!
