therealcookingmaggie Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Hi! I'm starting the Whole 30 this week with my fiance, and I know La Croix got the approval of the program, but I just want to make sure that the Curate varieties are also allowed/included in that program approval as well (they are my favorite variety of La Croix). Sorry if this question is repetitive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators ladyshanny Posted February 26, 2018 Administrators Share Posted February 26, 2018 Yes, the only ones not approved are the cola ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therealcookingmaggie Posted February 27, 2018 Author Share Posted February 27, 2018 YAYYYYY!! The lime cherry flavor is my all time favorite! Thank you!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lwolford Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 I find it very strange that La Croix or any flavored seltzer is allowed! Obviously they are all flavored with chemicals aka "natural flavors," and personally they give me an inflammatory reaction worse than dairy, soy, or gluten ever could. How can a chemical flavoring be compliant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can a chemical flavoring be compliant? Natural flavouring can often be essential oils but they are not allowed to use that on the ingredients list. Unless you contact the company directly, it's not possible to know how they compose their natural flavouring. That said, if they bother you, don't drink them. They are fine for Whole30. Whole30 cannot remove every single ingredient that might bother some one maybe somewhere. We eliminate those that are known to be most problematic and then, if you find something that you cannot have because it is a specific problem for you (like eggs/coconut for many), you eliminate that for yourself. It would be impossible to create a sustainable program that removed every single possible known or potential irritant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at my can: "Only carbonated water, naturally essenced" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
