My general desire is that people not add unnecessary bullshit. It's okay that my olives aren't perfectly black. My cheese can look like a normal orangish white. I really don't need coloring in my goddamn pickle jar.

I'm sure a lot of it stems from chasing consistency but at what price? I'd rather pay more for something that may change between seasons but not make me feel like dog shit. I felt okay with your wine, but honestly it could be other factors too. I'm sure additives play a role though because I've had different experiences where all else is the same.
