And Connie Hunter, who emailed us, was very nice. In fact, she talked my ear off. She shared the sugar is all different colors in it's raw state and in processing they don't add molasses, they remove it and there is a percentage range that constitutes dark, golden, etc. So by this, color isn't the deciding factor. However, she again said if any of us wanted to send a sample she'd be happy to send it to their lab for testing.
She mentioned someone else had noticed the same as us and sent samples included the product code off the bag (which gives them the date/etc of processing). She mentioned just getting a letter from that person saying she noticed the sugar was back to it's darker state now (if you see my post above I noticed it too yesterday at the store), but Connie is still curious about it, but mentioned the lab results aren't in yet.
In the end she said "I see they didn't slot you for coupons to be mailed (I said they told me they would), so she is going to make sure to get some in the mail.
Another thing she mentioned is they recently bought the UK company Tate and Lyle's, so we could look for their syrups/etc to start showing up in the US.
They also own a brand called Florida Crystals, which is organic and only USA grown - all their brands are only cane sugar, no beet/etc.
If anyone wants to send product samples or talk to Connie she gave me her direct dial number and said she'd be happy to speak to any of us. Let me know if anyone wants her number.
