Abstract: Vanilla extract, maple syrup, grape wine: They are some of the most common items that are sold with adulterated ingredients. Amy Kircher is the Director of the Food Protection and Defense Institute."Food fraud is the intentional misrepresentation of food," she said. Dr. Kircher says ingredients aren't the only thing consumers need to watch for."There are a lot of labels on food, not all of those labels are regulated. Healthy isn't necessarily a regulated label," she said.
