Several months ago Swiss Miss sold HOT COCOA packets with 8 grams of sugar, and were the most popular brand everywhere. Every time I went to a hotel there it was, restaurants, there it was. It had 8 grams of sugar per mug of hot cocoa. A few months ago, they decided to change this recipe to a whopping "28" grams of sugar !!!

If you try any of their sugar-free, diet, no sugar added varieties you will find that the powder does not dissolve in water no matter how hot it it. So why a company would take a perfectly good recipe, and change it from 8 grams of sugar to 28 grams of sugar is beyond me. Do you want to give your children or yourself, 28 grams of sugar first thing in the morning, or right before bed, or anytime of day for that matter? ..Me either.

So I am asking the company, Conagra Foods/Swiss Miss Cocoa, to return to the original recipe .

When the rest of the country is trying to get away from eating tons of sugar, salt, fats etc...They go off the chart with sugar. An idea for them, if they are determined to keep the 28 grams of sugar variety , is to bring back the original recipe and mark it "less sugar". Also to get rid of all the sugar free, diet, no sugar added and other varieties that WILL NOT not dissolve in boiling water.

Please make these changes and make Swiss Miss Hot Cocoa back to being a drink that kids and adults a like can enjoy without massive amount of sugar. Thanks for signing my petition.

In the picture below you can see on the end, the 28 grams of sugar. An 8 oz serving has a huge amount of sugar. It is like eating almost 2 -1/2 full size candy bars at one sitting !!!
